[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - Could not instantiate Seam component caused by: javax.naming

Where am I supposed to define the Spike7 datasource. I keep getting this error: javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: Spike7 not bound where I have defined in my @Stateful bean an Entity Manager like so: @javax.persistence.PersistenceContext (unitName="Spike7") | private EntityManager em; and my persistence.xml file located in the WEB-INF/classes/META-INF directory has this entry: <persistence> | <persistence-unit name="Spike7"> | <jta-data-source>java:Spike7Datasource</jta-data-source> | <provider>org.hibernate.ejb.HibernatePersistence</provider> | <properties> | <property name="hibernate-dialect" value="org.hibernate.dialect.SQLServerDialect" /> | <property name="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto" value="${hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto}"/> | <property name="hibernate.show_sql" value="true"/> | <property name="hibernate.transaction.factory_class" value="org.hibernate.transaction.JTATransactionFactory"/> | <property name="hibernate.transaction.manager_lookup_class" value="org.hibernate.transaction.JBossTransactionManagerLookup"/> | </properties> | </persistence-unit> | </persistence> and I have a Spike7DataSource-ds.xml deployed on my JBoss server... The jmx-console has these MBeans deployed indicating the DataSource has been successfully deployed: name=Spike7Datasource,service=DataSourceBinding | name=Spike7Datasource,service=ManagedConnectionFactory | name=Spike7Datasource,service=ManagedConnectionPool | name=Spike7Datasource,service=XATxCM Any ideas what I am doing wrong? Can I use the Stateful bean in a WAR application. Sorry if these are uneducated questions, but I am new to the seam world.
