I'm using SEAM 1.1 with the embedded EJB container running inside Tomcat (JBoss Tomcat for development and plain ol' Apache Tomcat at the customer's site). For the purposes of development I'm using an in-memory HSQLDB database defined in jboss-beans.xml. Everything seems to start up fine, I see all my entity and stateless session beans get created, I see the datasource I define get created and get bound under the given JNDI name. However, when I try to load a page that uses a stateless bean I get an exception that a bean can not be instantiated with a root cause of: javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: portal not bound where "portal" is the name of my persistence context. Any suggestions? I imagine I'm either missing some nuance about how these config files are working together or incorrectly assuming that the "portal" referred to in the error is the "portal" persistence unit.
