Can we execute EJB's in Tomcat

[Unregistered]

Can we execute EJB's in Tomcat, cause one of my friend (working) is saying that ,they r doing a project in Tomcat in which they r using EJB's.Is this possible.IF yes How?

[Hema.vulava]

No. We can't deploy ejb applications in Tomcat. It is a web server. it doesn't support ejb's.

But, in some projects we use both web logic and tomcat . We deploy the web applications in tomcat and ejb applications in weblogic.
I don't have clear idea on it.

As per my knowledge, we can't deploy the Ejb's in Tomcat bcz it is webserver. If it is possible, please inform.

[Hema.vulava]

Yes. you are right.
We can't deploy ejb's in tomcat as it is a web server.

I got that Tomcat is web server ,we cannot deploy Ejb's in that.Suppose if in some proj both weblogic and tomcat is using.ejb's in weblogic,webcontainer in tomcat.and they r following struts frame work.My que is how can they access
ejb's in action class's execute method(to get data from database).

wht r the mechanisms to do tht?

plzzzzzzzzzzz help meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

To run the web application that uses EJB running on weblogic server.

1) copy weblogic.jar under tomcat/shared/lib
2)copy the req. classes (Bussiness Deligate, RHI,RBI etc..)under WEB-INF/classes
3)copy jndi.properties under current directory.



Thanks & Regards,

Should we make any changes to the context.xml in Tomcat to invoke the ejb's in Weblogic? If yes, could someone send me a sample config file. I am having trouble doing the config for the integration.
