I wouldn't expect an ejb-local-ref to work except within a single
ear... does using a remote ref work any better? Do you have any line
numbers or stack trace from the exception?
thanks

I am currently using the pattern syntax in all my references to EJBs

example, here is a snippet of the geronimo-web.xml for my webapp:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app xmlns="http://geronimo.apache.org/xml/ns/j2ee/web-1.1";
xmlns:naming="http://geronimo.apache.org/xml/ns/naming-1.1";
xmlns:tomcat="http://geronimo.apache.org/xml/ns/j2ee/web/
tomcat-1.1">
<environment>
<dependencies>
...
</dependencies>
</environment>
<context-root>/services</context-root>
<ejb-local-ref>
<ref-name>ejb/PortalAccess</ref-name>
<pattern>
<groupId>testcompany</groupId>
<artifactId>testdaomodule</artifactId>
<version>3.0</version>
<module>backend-dao-module.jar</module>
<name>PortalAccessEJB</name>
</pattern>
</ejb-local-ref>
...
</web-app>
I attempted to remove the dependency in my geronimo-application.xml
for the webapp on the other deployed module, but this resulted in an
error in locating the ejb:
Error: Unable to distribute
backend-registration-module.ear: Could not
locate ejb matching
testcompany/testdaomodule/3.0/car?EJBModule=backend-dao-
module.jar,name=PortalAccessEJB#
in configuration
testcompany/testregistrationmodule/3.0/car
This error occured both when I deployed the testdaomodule first or
when I attempted to deploy the testregistrationmodule first. I'll be
watching this thread and the JIRA issue posted for further updates.
Thanks again,

The only workaround I currently think might work is to _not_ have the
webapp have a dependency on the ear (or ejb app for Ted's case) and
to deploy the web app first. This will avoid the logic that has the
CCE. You also have to specify the components of the ejb target name
rather than using an ejb-link in the geronimo plan.
Please let us know if this works.
