[jboss-user] [EJB 3.0] - stateful session bean - access works but every time new one,

if i lookup from my application for a stateful session, i get one: try { Context context = new InitialContext(); sessionFacade = (SessionFacade) context .lookup("shale-clay-mailreader/" + SessionBean.Local); // "shale-clay-mailreader/SessionBean/Local" } catch (NamingException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } problem is after a request the lookup is away and a new one will be created... i used jsf and saved the reference in a bean which had an applications scope session so i could have my stateful session bean until i destroy it with @Remove but why i have to save the reference? is not the advantage that a stateful session bean knows and saves the depending client ? or should it be - and while walking from request to request the jndi lookup creates new instead of get the old one, because the client looklike changed View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3972100#...
