Thanks very much. The problem was that I did not have an
<ejb-ref>...</ejb-ref> in my web.xml. I can't just do a JNDI lookup, I
need the ejb-ref declared. Since I'm using Visual Web Pack/JSF, I'm not
using servlets directly and can't use @EJB to inject the reference into
my POJO. I right clicked in my code window, Enterprise Resources -->
Call Enterprose Bean, and selected the EJB to have the ejb-ref added to
my web.xml. It now works correctly.
