    javax.naming.NotContextException

    sanjman71

      Hi,

      I would like to name JMS topics in JBoss in a hierarchical fashion: i.e. I have 3 topics named a, a/b, and a/b/c respectively. I can successfuly do a context.lookup("a"). When I try to do a context.lookup on "a/b" or "a/b/c", I get a javax.naming.NotContextException. Am I doing something wrong or does JBoss simply not allow this type of naming scheme?

      Thanks in advance.

          topic should be under the "topic' domain as far as i know

          topic/a
          topic/a/b
          topic/a/b/c

          should be ok

            This is exactly the case that doesn't work for me. I should have also mentioned that on startup, JBoss complains when trying to create the topics. It looks liek there is a problem setting the jndi name of the topic. Here is a blurb:

              Post the definition of your queues

                There is a separate attribute if you want to change the jndi name.


                somewhere/else <!-- HERE -->
                <depends optional-attribute-name="DestinationManager">jboss.mq:service=DestinationManager
                <depends optional-attribute-name="SecurityManager">jboss.mq:service=SecurityManager

                  Here are the definitions for the topics. I removed the SecurityManager in my definitions to make it as simple as possible.



                  <depends optional-attribute-name="DestinationManager">jboss.mq:service=DestinationManager



                  <depends optional-attribute-name="DestinationManager">jboss.mq:service=DestinationManager



                  <depends optional-attribute-name="DestinationManager">jboss.mq:service=DestinationManager

                    I don't understand, normally it should be ok

                    • 7. Re: javax.naming.NotContextException

                      You have bound a topic at
                      topic/a

                      You then try to bind a topic at topic/a/b
                      but a is not a subcontext it is a topic.

                        It seems like I can still keep my logical addressing and use the JNDIName attribute to map the queues/topics to physical names that don't use '/' as the delimiter. Thanks for all your help.
