context.lookup() returns null

[matt.h]

I have a stateless session bean that deploys successfully to JBoss2.4.1.

I can see that the bean is bound to JNDI by examining the relevant MBean service.

HOWEVER attempting to lookup the bean from a client doesn't throw an Exception, but returns null instead of the EJB's home interface.

Any ideas what is going on?

Forget it... a stupid mistake in the client lookup code.

hi ,

i am also getting the same error. can u just tell me what was the mistake that u spotted in your code.

It really was a stupid mistake, nothing to do with JNDI or EJB. My lookup() method wasn't returning the value I'd actually looked up - stupid.

Sorry this won't help you.
