Mbean loaded class can not find resource.

[joel.rosi-schwartz]

Hi,

I am writing an MBean to embed the Apache Xindice database. The starting of the service goes fine until one of the classes tries to read a configuration file which is contained in the same jar file as itself. The exceptions is:

APIService: org.omg.CORBA.INITIALIZE: IOException while parsing XML File "resource:/org/openorb/config/OpenORB.xml" :java.io.FileNotFoundException: Could not locate resource: /org/openorb/config/OpenORB.xml

Any ideas on how I can resolve this?

Thanks,
Joel

Sorry, I should have mentioned that I am running JBoss 3.0 on wk2 using Java 1.4.1.

I'm not really an expert on this, but I think a simple tag in your MBean deployment file will fix this.

So, something like this if your jar is in the deploy directory:

Thanks for the thought, but I have tried that already and it did not help. In any case, since the class that needs the resource is loaded (obviously), I would expect that the classloader would be able to find the resource as it is in the same jar file.

I certainly seems to be a problem with the way the classloader is treating the resource file or perhaps in the way the class is trying to retrieve it.

I am attaching a copy of the MBean deployment file. I is pretty straightforward so I do not think it will add any thing, but one never knows.

I know this issue is kind of old, but you need to pass the openorb.home property to the orb at startup. This should be the absolute pathname of your openorb jar file, or another path where you put the OpenORB.xml and default.xml files. You can see the OpenORB documentation for various ways to do this.
