[Previous attempts were to have Netbeans deploy an EJB module](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25970170/illegalargumentexception-invalid-ejb-jar-helloejb-it-contains-zero-ejb), which builds as a JAR rather than an EAR, onto the Glassfish server which Netbeans has access to. However, deploying that JAR to Glassfish through the CLI with `asadmin` [possibly runs into a bug](https://stackoverflow.com/q/25972994/262852).

The EAR deploys through the CLI without issue -- however, the JNDI names for the EJB doesn't appear to work. What is the discrepancy?

What is the correct syntax to lookup this bean? Is it `java:global/HelloEAR/HelloEAR-ejb/greetings.GreetingsBeanRemote`? I've tried more than a few variants of that without success.

deploying the app:

```
thufir@dur:~$ 
thufir@dur:~$ glassfish-4.1/glassfish/bin/asadmin list-applications
HelloEAR  <ear, ejb>  
Command list-applications executed successfully.
thufir@dur:~$ 
thufir@dur:~$ glassfish-4.1/glassfish/bin/asadmin undeploy HelloEAR
Command undeploy executed successfully.
thufir@dur:~$ 
thufir@dur:~$ glassfish-4.1/glassfish/bin/asadmin list-applications
Nothing to list.
No applications are deployed to this target server.

thufir@dur:~$ 
thufir@dur:~$ glassfish-4.1/glassfish/bin/asadmin deploy NetBeansProjects/HelloEAR/dist/HelloEAR.ear 
Application deployed with name HelloEAR.
Command deploy executed successfully.
thufir@dur:~$ 

```

the server.log:
