[jboss-user] [EJB 3.0 Users] - Set JNDI location for EJB 3.0 Bean in jboss-4.2.1.GA

I'm using jboss-4.2.1.GA with EJB 3.0 session beans. I have 2 local, stateless session beans annotated with @Local. I can successfully deploy an EAR with the session beans as long as I do not have any configuration files. However, I want to use jboss.xml to specify where in JNDI the beans should be put/bound. When I add /META-INF/ejb-jar.xml and /META-INF/jboss.xml I get a NullPointerException when I try to deploy. My ejb-jar.xml is: -------------------- <ejb-jar> | <enterprise-beans> | <session> | <ejb-name>AlumniLocal</ejb-name> | <local>org.ferris.oths.domain.alumni.AlumniLocal</local> | <ejb-class>org.ferris.oths.domain.alumni.AlumniEjb</ejb-class> | <session-type>Stateless</session-type> | <transaction-type>Container</transaction-type> | </session> | <session> | <ejb-name>AlumniPropertiesLocal</ejb-name> | <local>org.ferris.oths.domain.properties.AlumniPropertiesLocal</local> | <ejb-class>org.ferris.oths.domain.properties.AlumniPropertiesEjb</ejb-class> | <session-type>Stateless</session-type> | <transaction-type>Container</transaction-type> | </session> | </enterprise-beans> | </ejb-jar> My jboss.xml is: ------------------ <jboss> | <enterprise-beans> | <session> | <ejb-name>AlumniLocal</ejb-name> | <jndi-name>oths-domain/AlumniLocal</jndi-name> | </session> | <session> | <ejb-name>AlumniPropertiesLocal</ejb-name> | <jndi-name>oths-domain/AlumniPropertiesLocal</jndi-name> | </session> | </enterprise-beans> | </jboss> Since the beans deploy fine without the configuration files (using only ejb3 annotations) there has to be somethign wrong with these configuration files. What am I doing wrong here?? How can I get this configuration correct?? View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4266842#...
