How to remote access a method, or what am I doing wrong? Can you

How to remote access a method, or what am I doing wrong? Can you please tell me?:

public class OfferManagerBeanTest {
    private static Context ctx;

    @BeforeClass
    public static void initContainer() throws Exception
    {
        Properties props = new Properties();
        props.setProperty("java.naming.factory.initial", "com.sun.enterprise.naming.SerialInitContextFactory");
        props.setProperty("java.naming.factory.url.pkgs", "com.sun.enterprise.naming");
        props.setProperty("java.naming.factory.state", "com.sun.corba.ee.impl.presentation.rmi.JNDIStateFactoryImpl");
        props.setProperty("org.omg.CORBA.ORBInitialHost", "localhost");
        props.setProperty("org.omg.CORBA.ORBInitialPort", "3700");

        ctx = new InitialContext(props);
    }

    @Test
    public void commitOfferTest() throws NamingException
    {
        OfferManager offerManager = (OfferManager) ctx.lookup("java:global/project/projectEJB/OfferManagerBean");
        assertNotNull(offerManager);    
    }
}

My problem is that I get an error after running this test case.

I get it working but I don’t understand why it is working in another case.

Here is my EJB:

@Stateless
public class OfferManagerBean implements OfferManager, OfferManagerLocal

Where OfferManager is a @Remote interface and OfferManagerLocal is a @Local interface.
If I run this on my WebProject(war file) it is working… (I don’t have the properties there)

If I let everything like this and run the jUnit test I get an error like:

javax.naming.NamingException: Lookup failed for 'java:global/project/projectEJB/OfferManagerBean' in SerialContext[myEnv={org.omg.CORBA.ORBInitialPort=3700, java.naming.factory.initial=com.sun.enterprise.naming.SerialInitContextFactory, org.omg.CORBA.ORBInitialHost=localhost, java.naming.factory.state=com.sun.corba.ee.impl.presentation.rmi.JNDIStateFactoryImpl, java.naming.factory.url.pkgs=com.sun.enterprise.naming} [Root exception is javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: OfferManagerBean not found]

I found something like:

ctx.lookup("java:global/project/projectEJB/OfferManagerBean!ro.project.ejb.interfaces.OfferManager");

?? isn’t there a better/shorter solution?
Can anyone tell me why is this happening?

If I let my declaration like:

@Stateless
public class OfferManagerBean implements OfferManager

Everything is working.
Do you know how can I fix this?

    You can access your EJB using your code:

    OfferManager offerManager = (OfferManager) 
                       ctx.lookup("java:global/project/projectEJB/OfferManagerBean");
    

    only if your EJB implements one interface. In such situation, it’s obvious which interface you’re interested in (there is only one, so – no magic here).

    However, if your EJB implements more than one interface, than you should specify in what interface (view) are you interested in when accessing it through the JNDI.

    Therefore you must use full path as defined in Chapter 4.4 Global JNDI Access of EJB 3.1 FR spec:

    java:global[/<app-name>]/<module-name>/<bean-name>[!<fully-qualified-intf-name>]
    

    or using java:app or java:module as defined in the specification.
