    Problems With Persistence Context Injection

    p4781c

      I'm trying to create a simple web app using ejb3, jboss and the jbosside.
      The files come mainly from the persistence trailblazer. I'm trying to use a
      Mysql database in a persistence context ( and not using the jboss default datasource)
      as discussed in the TrailBlazer, found here:

      http://trailblazer.demo.jboss.com/EJB3Trail/persistence/config/index.html

      where it says:

      "It would be nice to configure the database and connections settings for each
      application or any set of entity beans. EJB 3.0 allows you do exactly via the
      concept of persistence context."


      However, no matter what I do the persistent context is,
      apparently, not injected into the slsb.

      I get the errors during deployment as follows:

      I'm confused about how to package the files, about which dtd is valid for
      persistence.xml, persistence.xml location, the use/non-use of .par/.ear files, -ds.xml files, etc.

      My question is how do you package an EJB 3.0 project in JBoss
      that uses a persistence context, as in the code below? And, what am I
      doing wrong such that the persistent context is not being injected?

      Environment:
      Windows XP
      JBoss 4.0.3 SP1
      Java 1.5.0_05

      Here are the project files

      I'm new to JBoss and EJB 3.0. I have used Hibernate in other projects. If this discussion has already been had, please give me short/terse answer letting me know where. I searched this forum and googled persistence context, but I haven't seen any definitive answer concerning my questions. One thing that has made this particularly confusing is that, given the recent release of the spec., I am not sure what I'm reading (in the forum/on the web) is for the new spec. or is out of date.

      Any help whatever is appreciated
