If you are working on wls 6.x then hot deployment is possible . If your ejb has been packaged then go to the console ( to access http://machine ort/console ) .
Then look at EJB deployment .Further info can be obtained at http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs61/programming/index.html

Happy EJBing

Hi there,
I am constructing a small application which needs 3 Entity beans and a session bean ( the session bean calls the entity beans ).
I have deployed the Entity beans individually , and can access them thru a client (java client) .
In my Session Bean I call the Entity beans in the following manner
Object ref = environment.lookup("java:comp/env/ejb/VispohdrHome"); hdrHome = (VispohdrHome)PortableRemoteObject.narrow(ref,VispohdrHome.class);
this implies that in my ejb-jar.xml I have to inclued the following reference information ..............
<ejb-ref>
<ejb-ref-name>ejb/VispocolorHome</ejb-ref-name>
<ejb-ref-type>Entity</ejb-ref-type>
<home>vism.masters.vispocolor.VispocolorHome</home>
<remote>vism.masters.vispocolor.Vispocolor</remote> </ejb-ref>
<ejb-ref>
<ejb-ref-name>ejb/VispohdrHome</ejb-ref-name>
<ejb-ref-type>Entity</ejb-ref-type>
<home>vism.masters.vispohdr.VispohdrHome</home>
<remote>vism.masters.vispohdr.Vispohdr</remote>
</ejb-ref>
<ejb-ref>
<ejb-ref-name>ejb/VispoetaHome</ejb-ref-name>
<ejb-ref-type>Entity</ejb-ref-type>
<home>vism.masters.vispoeta.VispoetaHome</home>
<remote>vism.masters.vispoeta.Vispoeta</remote>
</ejb-ref>
Now when i go to deploy my session bean , I get an error message saying that the EJB's mentioned in the <ejb-ref></ejb-ref> should be defined in the weblogic-ejb-jar.xml .
My question's Are
1) How do I inclued this information in the weblogic-ejb-jar.xml ( keep in mind that the Entity beans that the Session bean will access has already been deployed )?
2) Is There a better way to package the components ?

Thanking in advance

Hi ,
I am having problem in accessing an EJB ( Entity Bean of 1.1 Standard ) deployed in Weblogic 6.1 server . Every time I try to access the EJB from a remote client I get the following error .
Unable to resolve jndiVisstdvariant. Resolved : ' ' Unresolved :'jndiVisstdvariant' .
Please help me to resolve this error .
Other Inputs
============
I believe this error is related to Jndi look up , but this
is exactely the name i gave to my entity bean (jndiVisstdvariant).
I am pasting the weblogic-ejb-jar.xml and ejb-jar.xml that I have created .

Hi Balaji ,
Check out Build.cmd , this file actually helps you to build the examples . If you want a short cut , shut down the default server and start the examples server . In the example server the examples are pre loaded .

Hi Ranchers,
I wanted to know if it is possible to have comples conditions in the finder methods listed in a DD (I am Using Weblogic). For example
Complex Condition
==================
(finderDescriptors
"findByName(String name,String sname)" "(= name $name , =sname $sname)"
); end finderDescriptors
