Error while running Client Program of Entity Bean (BMP) : javax.naming.Name

Question

Hi,
I have tried an entity bean application. I am able to deploy my entity bean in WebLogic 7.0 server. But when I ran the client program I am getting the following error.
javax.naming.NameNotFoundException : Unable to resolve 'java:comp.env/ejb/AccountBean' Resolved: ' ' unresolved : 'java:comp': remaining name 'java:comp.env/ejb/AccountBean'
My ejb-jar.xml is as follows:

My Client Program is as follows:
import javax.ejb.*;
public class Client{
public static void main(String[] args){
Account account = null;
     try{
     Context = new InitialContext(System.getProperties());
     AccountHome home = (AccountHome) ctx.lookup("java:comp/env/ejb/AccountBean");
     home.create("123-456-7890","John");
     }catch(...){
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Mari.

Hi,
My Client Program is as follows:
import javax.ejb.*;
public class Client{
public static void main(String[] args){
Account account = null;
     try{
Context = new
Context = new
InitialContext(System.getProperties());
AccountHome home = (AccountHome)
AccountHome)
ctx.lookup("java:comp/env/ejb/AccountBean");
     home.create("123-456-7890","John");
     }catch(...){
}What are the System Properties? Are you running the client remotely? Are you running the client as a stand alone Java app or using the Weblogic's Client Runner? 'java:comp' as the jndi name is usually used when the client runs inside the container... But it doesn't seem to be the case.
