[java] javax.naming.NameNotFoundException

I am running an example of ejb using JBoss5 Container. I am using an example from here(Part one).
In the example I deployed bean in JBoss and an application in Tomcat(to acces the bean from JBoss). I am getting the error in the screen of tomcat server
javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: greetJndi not bound

( greetJndi is the jndi-name in jboss.xml file ) Is there any specific directory structure to deploy in JBoss?

Thanks

The error means that your are trying to look up JNDI name, that is not attached to any EJB component - the component with that name does not exist.

As far as dir structure is concerned: you have to create a JAR file with EJB components. As I understand you want to play with EJB 2.X components (at least the linked example suggests that) so the structure of the JAR file should be:

/com/mypackage/MyEJB.class /com/mypackage/MyEJBInterface.class /com/mypackage/etc... etc... java classes /META-INF/ejb-jar.xml /META-INF/jboss.xml

The JAR file is more or less ZIP file with file extension changed from ZIP to JAR.

BTW. If you use JBoss 5, you can work with EJB 3.0, which are much more easier to configure. The simplest component is

@Stateless(mappedName="MyComponentName")
@Remote(MyEJBInterface.class)
public class MyEJB implements MyEJBInterface{
   public void bussinesMethod(){

   }
}

No ejb-jar.xml, jboss.xml is needed, just EJB JAR with MyEJB and MyEJBInterface compiled classes.

Now in your client code you need to lookup "MyComponentName".
