Thanks for the fast response - but I am separating them - below is my application.xml. | <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> | <application id="Application_ID" version="1.4" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/application_1_4.xsd"> | <display-name> | MyEar</display-name> | <module id="WebModule_1175089155093"> | <web> | <web-uri>FindResourcesService.war</web-uri> | <context-root>FindResourcesService</context-root> | </web> | </module> | <module id="EjbModule_1175102889765"> | <ejb>MyEjbs.jar</ejb> | </module> | I just did a little research - and I'm able to get the PersistenceContext injected - if I access my Stateless bean with a stand-alone java client (using InitialContext.lookup - and such). So I think my issue is when a stand-alone java client - calls the webservice - then the webservice tries to create an instance of the Stateless session bean... I have to look into that now. Do I have to add some Context persistence into my service call? I'll continue searching. my client to call the service is this: | FindResourcesServiceLocator locator = new FindResourcesServiceLocator(); | FindResourcesServicePort port = locator.getFindResourcesServicePort(); | port.findResource() | and my webservice just initializes the SampleClass and calls a method in it: | SampleClass sample = new SampleClass(); | sample.findResource(); | View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4040662#...
