The data source declarations look fine. The issue is that by default EJBs in Orion use the jdbc/DefaultEJBDS data source. If you want to use one of your other sources then you need to deploy the app, stop Orion and edit orion-ejb-jar.xml in the application-deployments tree and change the data-source="jdbc/DefaultEJBDS" attribute to point at your new source. Once you have the orion-ejb-jar.xml correct, copy it to the application in the orion directory and it will be copied every time the app is deployed. e.g. applications myApp myApp-ejb META-INF ejb-jar.xml orion orion-ejb-jar.xml Dave Smith Senior Team Leader Aristocrat Technologies Australia Pty Ltd mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: Juan Pablo Lorandi [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, 17 July 2000 23:39 To: Orion-Interest Subject: Guys..
