I am sorry if the question is silly..... My Remote Interface will be one like this
import javax.ejb.Remote;
@Remote
public interface CityService {
     public String getCity();
And My Bean Class will be
import javax.ejb.EJB;
import javax.ejb.Remote;
import javax.ejb.Stateless;
import javax.persistence.EntityManager;
import javax.persistence.EntityTransaction;
import javax.persistence.PersistenceContext;
import javax.persistence.Query;
@EJB
@Remote(CityService.class)
@Stateless(mappedName="ejb/CityService")
public class CityServiceBean implements CityService {
public String getCity(){
return "Chennai Metropolitan";
And the client which invokes the bean will be
InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext();
CityService c = (CityService)ctx.lookup("ejb/CityService");
System.out.println("Msg from Bean"+c.getCity());
please help me out of this issue....
Thanks in advance

If you deploy your application in a .ear, you also can use this:
You have to set a name to your EJBBean -> @Stateless(name = "XXX")
The client for remote interface -> cxt.lookup(Name_of_your_own_ear_without_extension + "/XXX/Remote");
The client for local interface -> cxt.lookup(Name_of_your_own_ear_without_extension + "/XXX/Local");the problem with this approach is that if you version your ears, the version numbers show up in the jndi names, and your client code will be hard coded to specific server versions.
