使JBoss Seam与Eclipse一起使用

Question

I have been trying to get to run a simple example project with JBoss Seam in Eclipse 3.5. So far unsuccessfully.

What i did:

• I set up a MySQL server that i can connect to using eclipse's data tools.
• I installed Tomcat 6.0 and set it up as a server in eclipse
• I installed the "JBossAS Tools" v2.2.0 plugin
• I created a new Seam Project using the plugin.

But i keep getting

javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: HelloWorldSeamProjektDatasource not bound

I have been reading a lot of forums and playing around with the web.xml, server.xml, context.xml and HelloWorldSeamProjekt-ds.xml.

My guess is that the JNDI setup of my database resource is broken. I tried a bunch of different approaches like a global resource, different names (comp/env/) but nothing worked.

All the tutorials i found use different (and mostly outdated) combinations of Seam, Tomcat and Eclipse.

I'm getting frustrated.

Can someone please point me to a simple setup to get me started?

What you should do instead is use seam-gen to generate your eclipse project. This will do it right.
