I see 2 errors in the plan 1) In your openejb-jar.xml file you are setting the default namespace "http://www.openejb.org/xml/ns/openejb-jar-2.1"; instead of 2.2 but anyway that should be taken care of by g
2) In the gbean-ref you are only giving the ref-name but u need to provide a mapping of that refname to the actual gbean by giving the pattern/ ref-type elements. If you give the pattern element then you need to specify the name of your gbean inside that element inside the name tag. However I guess both these should not cause the problem you are experiencing Another thing you can try is to call org.apache.geronimo.kernel.KernelRegistry.getSingleKernel(); from within the ejb. This will give you the kernel from which you can get the gbean by executing a gbean query. Using gbean refs is the better approach though. regards Manu On Wed, Jun 25, 2008 at 4:39 PM, dsthode <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hello all, > > I'm trying to deploy an enterprise application in Geronimo 2.1.1 wich makes > use of a GBean from inside a Message EJB.
