resource-ref not working in 3.2.0RC1 or 3.0.4

[joey75205]

Hello,

I am attempting to map a datasource reference to the EJBs ENC. I have this in my ejb-jar.xml file:

<resource-ref>
<res-ref-name>jdbc/OrderDS</res-ref-name>
<res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
<res-auth>Container</res-auth>
</resource-ref>

I have this in my jboss.xml file:


<enterprise-beans>

<ejb-name>HelloEJB</ejb-name>
<jndi-name>HelloHome</jndi-name>
<resource-ref>
<res-ref-name>jdbc/OrderDS</res-ref-name>
<resource-name>jdbc/EstoreXADB</resource-name>
</resource-ref>

</enterprise-beans>


When I deploy the EJB to jBoss, jBoss links "java:com/env/jdbc/OrderDS" to "java:DefaultDS", not to my deployed datasource. If I remove the DefaultDS config file, then jBoss doesn't link my reference to anything. The DataSources look as though they are deployed when I check out the JNDI view in jmx-console. There are no exceptions in the jBoss startup either.

Is this a bug with the software or simply a misconfiguration issue? What I have done is pretty straight-forward and works on other application servers.

Oh yeah, I have also attempted to put "java:/jdbc/EstoreXADB" as the resource-name tag in jboss.xml.

Thanks for any help!

Okay, I figured out the problem. I found some code out on the web that sets up a resource ref for a datasource in jBoss. I had to add the following to my jboss.xml file:



<enterprise-beans>

<ejb-name>HelloEJB</ejb-name>
<jndi-name>HelloHome</jndi-name>
<resource-ref>
<res-ref-name>jdbc/OrderDS</res-ref-name>
<resource-name>jdbc/EstoreXADB</resource-name>
</resource-ref>

</enterprise-beans>

<resource-managers>
<resource-manager res-class="javax.sql.DataSource">
<res-name>jdbc/EstoreXADB</res-name>
<res-jndi-name>java:/jdbc/EstoreXADB</res-jndi-name>
</resource-manager>
</resource-managers>



So the resource-managers tag is the key.
