ServiceBindingManager

[emiles]

I just installed v.3.2.2 and tried to create a server with different ports by activating ServiceBindingManager and modifying the sample-bindings.xml file, etc (straight from the book). Accordinging to the log files, the server finds the correct .xml file, parses it but I still get "Port already in use" exceptions beginning with the JNDI service because it's trying the wrong ports that I have setup.

Does this service/feature even work? Creating multiple servers should not be a hard thing to do and should not require editing a dozen files to get there. This is pretty basic stuff that should work out of the box with very little effort.

If the answer I get is "edit these 12 files" or "get the latest this, that, and the other" then it's bye-bye to JBoss.

Follow up:
I enabled ServiceBindingManager for the default server and pointed to the "ports-default" server in the bindings.xml file. Default server starts throwing exceptions just like the server I tried to add yesterday.

Conclusion:
ServiceBindingManager was released and never has worked with the sample-bindings.xml file.

Thanks JBoss for wasting my time. I guess you actually do get what you pay for.

Hi,

I've got a problem withe ServiceBindingManager, it looks like if JBoss doesn't find the library of this service. I'll try to download an earlier release to find if there is this library.

Else there is an other open source J2EE project which looks better than JBoss : JOnAS available at jonas.objectweb.org you should have a look.

If that is the case what other versions of JBoss have you tried, the services binding manager was added into JBoss 3.0.5.

Does not work, out of the box, with 3.0.6, either.
