[jboss-user] Seam JNDI: javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: mtgInventory not bound

Hi, I'm trying to deploy an ear on JBoss 4.2.2.GA using Seam 2.0.0.GA. Deployment is fine, no errors and I can see my EJB component loaded like this: 12:27:50,101 INFO [Component] Component: cardsAction, scope: STATELESS, type: STATELESS_SESSION_BEAN, class: com.patelski.magic.inventory.action.CardActionImpl, JNDI: mtgInventory/CardActionImpl/local But when I try to load a page that uses this component, I get this: 12:28:10,928 WARN [lifecycle] executePhase(RENDER_RESPONSE 6, com.sun.faces.context.FacesContextImpl@d14192) threw exception org.jboss.seam.InstantiationException: *Could not instantiate Seam component: cardsAction* at org.jboss.seam.Component.newInstance(Component.java:1962) ..... Caused by: javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: *mtgInventory not bound* at org.jnp.server.NamingServer.getBinding(NamingServer.java:529) ..... 12:28:11,255 ERROR [ExceptionFilter] handling uncaught exception javax.servlet.ServletException: Could not instantiate Seam component: cardsAction at javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet.service(FacesServlet.java:256) ..... etc. Settings I use here are: In components.xml: <core:init jndi-pattern="mtgInventory/#{ejbName}/local" /> I guess this has something to do with my JNDI-setting, but I don't know what. I've tried several things, but the Seam tutorial settings won't even deploy: http://docs.jboss.org/seam/1.2.1.GA/reference/en/html/tutorial.html <core:init jndi-pattern="@jndiPattern@"/> This gives: 12:37:07,476 INFO [Initialization] reading /WEB-INF/components.xml 12:37:07,600 ERROR [[/mtg-inventory]] Exception sending context initialized event to listener instance of class org.jboss.seam.servlet.SeamListener java.lang.RuntimeException: error while reading /WEB-INF/components.xml at org.jboss.seam.init.Initialization.initComponentsFromXmlDocument( Initialization.java:136) ..... at org.jboss.deployment.scanner.AbstractDeploymentScanner$ScannerThread.run( AbstractDeploymentScanner.java:225) Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Exception setting property org.jboss.seam.core.init.jndiPattern on component org.jboss.seam.core.init. *Expression @jndiPattern@ evaluated to null.* at org.jboss.seam.init.Initialization.installComponentFromXmlElement (Initialization.java:407) at org.jboss.seam.init.Initialization.installComponentsFromXmlElements( Initialization.java:257) at org.jboss.seam.init.Initialization.initComponentsFromXmlDocument( Initialization.java:132) ... 92 more Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: null value at org.jboss.seam.util.Conversions$FlatPropertyValue.<init>( Conversions.java:275) at org.jboss.seam.init.Initialization.getPropertyValue( Initialization.java:462) at org.jboss.seam.init.Initialization.installComponentFromXmlElement (Initialization.java:402)
