WLI - EJB not showing up in studio

Question

I'm trying to expose an entity EJBs as a business operation to a workflow in WLI.
I defined the EJBs in the the WLI application (in config.xml) as explained in
the docs. I start the server and check the EJBs and they are loaded and deployed.
I can access them via a test application with no problem. When I go into studio
and try to define a business operation they are not avaiable via the drop down
list. I'v looked over the sample apps and everything seems to be in order. Any
ideas? Thanks.

In your config.xml file, look for where the WLI ejbs are located. You
should see that they are co-located in the same application xml tab. For
example:
<Application Deployed="true" Name="WLI"
Path="C:\bea\wlintegration2.1\lib">
<EJBComponent DeploymentOrder="4" Name="wlc-wlpi-plugin.jar"
Targets="myserver" URI="wlc-wlpi-plugin.jar"/>
</Appliacation>
The key is the 'Name="WLI" ' piece. For some reason, WLI will not search
JNDI space for your object, but will only look at objects that are located
under this <Application> tag that is named "WLI". So:
1. Deploy your bean normally, test it with some separate client to be sure
it works.
2. Bring down your server
3. Edit the "config.xml" file and place your EJBComponent under the WLI app
as is shown above
4. Restart your server.
You should now see that it is available via the Studio / Business Operations
functionality.
