Could not instantiate Seam component caused by: javax.naming

[birwin]

Where am I supposed to define the Spike7 datasource. I keep getting this error:

javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: Spike7 not bound

where I have defined in my @Stateful bean an Entity Manager like so:

@javax.persistence.PersistenceContext (unitName="Spike7")
 private EntityManager em;

and my persistence.xml file located in the WEB-INF/classes/META-INF directory has this entry:

<persistence>
 <persistence-unit name="Spike7">
 <jta-data-source>java:Spike7Datasource</jta-data-source>
 <provider>org.hibernate.ejb.HibernatePersistence</provider>
 <properties>
 <property name="hibernate-dialect" value="org.hibernate.dialect.SQLServerDialect" />
 <property name="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto" value="${hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto}"/>
 <property name="hibernate.show_sql" value="true"/>
 <property name="hibernate.transaction.factory_class" value="org.hibernate.transaction.JTATransactionFactory"/>
 <property name="hibernate.transaction.manager_lookup_class" value="org.hibernate.transaction.JBossTransactionManagerLookup"/>
 </properties>
 </persistence-unit>
</persistence>

and I have a Spike7DataSource-ds.xml deployed on my JBoss server... The jmx-console has these MBeans deployed indicating the DataSource has been successfully deployed:

name=Spike7Datasource,service=DataSourceBinding
name=Spike7Datasource,service=ManagedConnectionFactory
name=Spike7Datasource,service=ManagedConnectionPool
name=Spike7Datasource,service=XATxCM

Any ideas what I am doing wrong? Can I use the Stateful bean in a WAR application.

Sorry if these are uneducated questions, but I am new to the seam world.

Okay, this solution is elementary, however, it was not obvious to me.

By annotating my POJOs with the @In annotation instead of the @PersistenceContext annotation, and renaming the managed-persistence-context in my components.xml file to entityManager, I was able to fix this problem.

I believe the name in the components.xml file can be something else, but then you have to specify the name next to the @In annotation in your POJOs.
