Accessing EJB from servlet loaded on startup
Our application includes a servlet which invokes and EJB via it's remote reference. In Jboss 4/5 this worked great, but in JBoss 7.2 I am getting the following exception. Reading up on this issue it appears that the problem is that the Servlet is not associated with a security domain / context. Any suggestion on what I need to configure on the web application to be able to access the EJBs on startup.
