copied!<p>You get a <code>NullPointerException</code> because you are instantiating your <code>BookService</code> with a <code>new()</code> - which is basically wrong - and nothing gets injected in the EJB. EJB are component that are managed by the container and should be obtained either via injection or with a lookup. </p> <p>Here, while the JSP spec allows any code to be run in a scriplet, calling an EJB from a JSP is actually not really encouraged and JSPs don't support injection. In other words, you'll have to use a lookup:</p> <pre><code><%@ page import="beans.BookService" %> <%@ page import="beans.Book" %> <html> <body> <% BookService bs = (BookService) new InitialContext().lookup("java:module/BookServiceBean") Book b = new Book("Superman"); bs.createOrUpdate(b); %> </body> </html> </code></pre> <p>But you should call your EJB from a Servlet or a JSF Managed Bean (and your EJB could be injected in such components).</p> <p>If you need some samples, have a look at the <a href="http://java.sun.com/javaee/reference/code/" rel="noreferrer">Java EE Code Samples & Apps</a>.</p> <p><strong>Update:</strong> See <a href="https://glassfish.dev.java.net/javaee5/ejb/EJB_FAQ.html#POJOLocalEJB" rel="noreferrer">How do I access a Local EJB component from a POJO?</a> in the EJB FAQ for more details on JNDI (especially the new <a href="https://glassfish.dev.java.net/javaee5/ejb/EJB_FAQ.html#What_is_the_syntax_for_portable_global_" rel="noreferrer">portable global JNDI names defined by the EJB 3.1 specification</a>).</p>
