This error occurs because we are trying to look up a Local interface of an stateless EJB with spring, by definition when you specify <jndi-name> on jboss.xml or ejb-jar.xml this JNDI is assigned to the remote interface. So you need to specify the local-jndi-name as follows: <enterprise-beans> <ejb-name>GranInvokerEJB</ejb-name> <jndi-name>GranInvokerEJB</jndi-name> <local-jndi-name>GranInvokerEJBLocal</local-jndi-name> </enterprise-beans> Once you do this error should be solved. I hope this can help you... View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4233420#...
