Do i need to set Resource Ref's in teh deploy tool for a CMP bean?

Question

Hi,
I have a CMP bean which i have deployed, it doesnt work, in the server log shows the following.
[#|2005-03-10T14:13:21.046+1030|WARNING|sun-appserver-pe8.1|javax.enterprise.system.container.ejb.entity.finder|_ThreadID=16;|JDO74004: Bean 'PersonEntityBean' method ejbFindByPrimaryKey:
com.sun.jdo.api.persistence.support.JDODataStoreException: JDO76400: Got a JDBC SQLException while executing the SQL statement:
SQL statement<select t0.person_id, t0.name from person t0 where t0.person_id = ?> with input values:java.lang.Integer:1.
Please examine the SQLException for more information.
NestedException: java.sql.SQLException: No database selected
THe database has been set up in the connection pools, i thought this was enough, as there is no coded names in the implementation code, am i wrong?
how do i get my CMP bean to communicate with the database?
do i need to set up any references?
thank you for your time
Gavin.

You set the JNDI name of the JDBC resource in deploytool. To do this, select your EJB JAR, select the General pane, and click Sun-specific Settings. Enter the JNDI name of your JDBC resource, and then set up the mappings & relationships. The J2EE 1.4 Tutorial's Container Managed Persistence Examples chapter has several examples that show how to do this.
