According the stack trace "Caused by: javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: env/BeanManager", this JNDI resource name doesn't exist in Java EE Environment (in this case, JBoss AS 7.1).
The API document of Java EE 6 indicated that the JNDI name of BeanManager is "java:comp/BeanManager": http://docs.oracle.com/javaee/6/api/javax/enterprise/inject/spi/BeanManager.html

The code caused this issue is from CDIUtil in ZK plus.
This might be a simple solution:
CDIUtil.java
package org.zkoss.zkplus.cdi; import javax.enterprise.inject.spi.BeanManager; import javax.naming.InitialContext; import javax.naming.NamingException; import org.zkoss.xel.XelException; public class CDIUtil { private static BeanManager _manager; public static BeanManager getBeanManager() { if(_manager != null) return _manager; try { final InitialContext initialContext = new InitialContext(); _manager = (BeanManager)initialContext.lookup("java:comp/env/BeanManager"); } catch(NamingException e) { try { final InitialContext initialContext = new InitialContext(); _manager = (BeanManager)initialContext.lookup("java:comp/BeanManager"); } catch(NamingException e1) { throw XelException.Aide.wrap(e1, "Cannot locate the BeanManager for JavaEE 6."); } } return _manager; } }
