InitialContext error

[megaskins]

I am just learning EJB and JBoss.

I have written and deployed a simple bean. I confirmed this by checking in the log.

However, I cannot get my client to call the bean methods because I can't get an InitialContext. I have created a jndi.properties file and put it in the classpath of the bean and client, but I still get an error.

I have read through most of this forum and searched through bunch of documentation - I don't see what is wrong.

What's wrong?

Try this

Hashtable environment = new Hashtable();
environment.put("java.naming.factory.initial","org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory");
environment.put("java.naming.provider.url","localhost:1099");
environment.put("java.naming.factory.url.pkgs","org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces");


InitialContext initial = new InitialContext(environment);

Thanks for the response. I'll try this to see if it works.

I was wondering though, why I can't read these properties from the jndi.properties file? I already have all these properties specified in that file - any ideas?
