Hi I am trying to make the Monson Cabin-Travelagent example working but to no avail The Cabin bean works Ok (it populates the tables ) but the travelagent jar does not recognize the Cabin EJB. There are two different jars (session +entity) and I want the seesion to be able to see the entity from a different jar I have tried (among countless variations) ====================== A ================== :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: ejb-jar.xml <ejb-ref> <ejb-ref-name>CabinHome</ejb-ref-name> <ejb-ref-type>Entity</ejb-ref-type> <home>com.titan.cabin.CabinHome</home> <remote>com.titan.cabin.Cabin</remote> </ejb-ref> ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: jboss.xml <jboss> <enterprise-beans> <session> <ejb-name>TravelAgentBeanName</ejb-name> <ejb-ref> <ejb-ref-name>CabinHome</ejb-ref-name> <jndi-name>ejb/CabinHome </jndi-name> </ejb-ref> </session> </enterprise-beans> </jboss> And in bean source Code ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Object obj = jndiContext.lookup("ejb/CabinHome"); :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Jboss says that ejb not bound ? Note that I do NOT have a JBOSS.xml file for the entity bean - so the default jndi ought to be "ejb" (??) ====================== B ================== then tried : <jndi-name>java:comp/env/ejb/CabinHome </jndi-name> then again msg like - java not bound or comp not bound ? I don't know how to use the much-touted example <jndi-name>t3://otherserver/application/beanB</jndi-name>: because I dunno what application means ??? and what's "t3" ? what's "otherserver" (BTW I'm using localhost)? localhost or localhost:1099 ? what's "application" ? what's "BeanB" - the full path of the class or just its name ??? Can somebody please POST THREE EXACT WORKING SNIPPETS Of (A) ejb-jar.xml (B) jboss.xml (C) invocation inside the code jndiContext.lookup("????????"); I have tried ALL the solutions in the archive and NONE work; and plz don't send me to http://www.jboss.org/documentation/HTML/ch06s05.html cuz I have read it , followed it but still to no avail.
