Problem accessing EJB Statefull Session Bean

[charlymch]

Hi guys,
        I'm having a problem, I think it may be something that I'm missing, but I honestly don't know what it is. I have a Statefull Session Bean, bound to the Application Scope as follows:

@Name("cvManager")
@Scope(ScopeType.APPLICATION)
@Stateful
@AutoCreate
public class CommonValueManager implements Serializable, CommonValueCacheProvider

then I'm trying to access this bean by either of this two methods:

CommonValueCacheProvider cvManager;
          
cvManager = ( (CommonValueCacheProvider) Component.getInstance("cvManager") );

Or

@In(required=false,create=true)
private CommonValueCacheProvider cvManager;

and I get the following exception, at least in the second case:

Caused by: org.jboss.seam.InstantiationException: Could not instantiate Seam component: cvManager

my component configuration has the following parameters, in case the JNDI name strikes you as odd:

<core:init debug="true" jndi-pattern="seamTrial\#{ejbName}\local" precedence="100"/>

Any help will be great,

thanks

which app server are you using?

side note: you don't need create=true when using @AutoCreate

[charlymch]

This test was made on a JBoss 5.0, with Seam 2.1

Yeap, you are right about the @AutoCreate, it's just that I was getting kind of crazy about it and I tried all sorts of things, hehe.

I am using JBoss 4.2.x with Seam 2.0.2-FP.

This is what I have:

components.xml:

<core:init debug="@debug@" jndi-pattern="@jndiPattern@"/>

components.properties:

jndiPattern \#{ejbName}/local

so basically you could do something like this in components.xml:

<core:init debug="true" jndi-pattern="\#{ejbName}/local"/>

So the question is why are you prefixing the jndi-pattern value with seamTrial?

[charlymch]

The thing es that seamTrial is the name of the project. I saw in another post that it was practical to put the project as a prefix, it was this thread:
