weblogic jndi lookup from jboss in cluster

[mannam.tessco]

I am having a problem with the following code in a jboss cluster environment.

javax.naming.Context context = null;

Properties properties = new Properties();
properties.setProperty( Context.PROVIDER_URL, "t3://hostname:6131" );
properties.setProperty( Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory" );

context = new InitialContext( properties );

out.println( context.lookup( "QueueConnectionFactory" ) );

The above code works fine in default jboss server. I am using the following

JBoss 5.1.0.GA ( using wlclient to connect )
Weblogic 8.1

I get CORBA.initialize exception in the cluster ( all environment ) and it works fine in default envirobment.

Could someone please help me in this.

Thanks,
Ram

Hi Ram,
do you have any progress on that ? I would appreciate any input on this matter. I have exactly the same issue using JBoss 5.1.0 with Weblogic 9.2. Default configuration works just fine. It gives a CORBA.Initialize exception in cluster mode when calling

Context ctx = new InitialContext(ht);

I tried to change the

properties.setProperty( Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory" );
properties.setProperty( Context.PROVIDER_URL, "t3://hostname:6131" );

with

env.setProperty( Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "com.sun.jndi.cosnaming.CNCtxFactory" );
env.setProperty( Context.PROVIDER_URL, "iiop://hostname:6131" );

It didn't help, same problem - "default" works fine, "all"/cluster throws an exception.

I doubt this has anything to do with clustering per se; rather it's that clustering is a feature in the "all" config, along with lots of other stuff that's not in default, e.g. deploy/iiop-service.xml.

Does removing deploy/iiop-service.xml solve your problem? Alternatively, you could try making a new "cluster" config by copying default and then:

1) Copy all/deploy/cluster to cluster/deploy/
2) Copy all/deploy-hasingleton to cluster/
3) Copy all/lib/* to cluster/lib/

It gets a bit more complex if you want farming to work; I'll omit that for now.

Copying weblogic.jar into "JBoss/common/lib" solves the problem.
