    Problem accesing JPA EntityManager from JSP

    ensoreus

      Hy,

      I am trying to access an EntityManager from JSP scriptlet for testing purposes and it doesn't work.
      Here is the JSP scriptlet:

      <%
      EntityManager em = (EntityManager) (new InitialContext()).lookup("java:comp/env/persistence/em");
      Query query = em.createQuery("select u from USER u");
      List users = (List) query.getResultList();
      for (User user : users) { user.toString(); }
      %>

      persistence.xml file :

      ........
      <persistence-unit name="myApp">
      org.hibernate.ejb.HibernatePersistence
      <jta-data-source>java:/XAOracleDS</jta-data-source>



      </persistence-unit>
      ......

      web.xml file :

      .......
      <persistence-context-ref>
      <persistence-context-ref-name>persistence/em</persistence-context-ref-name>
      <persistence-unit-name>myApp</persistence-unit-name>
      </persistence-context-ref>
      .......

      The application is deployed in JBoss 4.2.2.GA. When I access the JSP page I get the following exception:
      javax.servlet.ServletException: javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: persistence not bound

      I guess I have to configure the resource in jboss-web.xml too, but I don't know how. I tried with <resource-ref>, but I got the same error.

      Any help at all would be highly appreciated !
      Thanks.

      Andrei
