Hmm, I see you are using the the ejb-jar as a lib, I don’t think TomEE will look for resources.json inside a lib jar (Likewise I don’t think it would look for the persistence.xml). You would have to have the myejb.jar inside webapps within TomEE for resources.json to get picked up.
I don’t see why you want resources.json inside a lib jar anyway. This is a configuration file for your current webapps (i.e the jars/wars within the apps folder). So basically you have 3 options: 1) Put the myejb.jar inside the webapps folder 2) put the resources.json file inside your web app. 3) move the contents of resources.json to tomee.json located in the conf folder.

That one put the jar under /WEB-INF/lib.
