JNDI issues from Sun Appserver 8.1 to JBoss 4.03
Hi
I have an application that works on Sun's Java System Application Server Platform Edition 8.1 but when I try to deploy it JBoss I am getting some errors regarding the lookup of JNDI resources.
First I created -ds.xml resource file and deployed it.
<datasources> <local-tx-datasource> <jndi-name>jdbc/ecardDB</jndi-name> <connection-url>jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://webdev.nemours.org:1433/ecard</connection-url> <driver-class>net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbcx.JtdsDataSource</driver-class> <user-name>user</user-name> <password>pass</password> <connection-property name="ProgName">jTDS - org.nemours.webapp.ecard</connection-property> <connection-property name="AppName">jTDS - org.nemours.webapp.ecard</connection-property> <connection-property name="Description">AIDHC eCards db pool</connection-property> <metadata> <type-mapping>MS SQLSERVER2000</type-mapping> </metadata> </local-tx-datasource> </datasources>
This part worked fine and I can see this name via jmx-console JNDI MBean.
Here is the output:

The problem is that I have some environment strings that I use in my app via web.xml....Here is my web.xml part that refers to them...
<resource-ref> <res-ref-name>jdbc/ecardDB</res-ref-name> <res-type>javax.sql.ConnectionPoolDataSource</res-type> <res-auth>Container</res-auth> <res-sharing-scope>Shareable</res-sharing-scope> </resource-ref> <!-- string entry pointing to JDBC resource --> <env-entry> <description>Conflict Of Interest DataSource Name</description> <env-entry-name>ecard/dao/ECardDataSource</env-entry-name> <env-entry-type>java.lang.String</env-entry-type> <env-entry-value>java:comp/env/jdbc/ecardDB</env-entry-value> </env-entry> <!-- string entries pointing to implementation classes for DAOFactory --> <env-entry> <description>Category DAO Implementation Class</description> <env-entry-name>ecard/dao/CategoryDAOClass</env-entry-name> <env-entry-type>java.lang.String</env-entry-type> <env-entry-value>org.nemours.webapp.ecard.dao.MsSqlCategoryDAO</env-entry-value> </env-entry> <env-entry> <description>ECard DAO Implementation Class</description> <env-entry-name>ecard/dao/ECardDAOClass</env-entry-name> <env-entry-type>java.lang.String</env-entry-type> <env-entry-value>org.nemours.webapp.ecard.dao.MsSqlECardDAO</env-entry-value> </env-entry>
Here is also my jboss-web.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE jboss-web PUBLIC "-//JBoss//DTD Web Application 2.4//EN" "http://www.jboss.org/j2ee/dtd/jboss-web_4_0.dtd"> <jboss-web> <context-root>/ecards</context-root> <resource-ref> <res-ref-name>jdbc/ecardDB</res-ref-name> <jndi-name>jdbc/ecardDB</jndi-name> </resource-ref> </jboss-web>
When I try to deploy the app I get the following error:
2005-07-07 10:32:03,312 ERROR [org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.[jboss.web].[localhost].[/ecards]] Exception sending context initialized event to listener instance of class org.nemours.webapp.ecard.controller.ECardContextListener org.nemours.webapp.ecard.model.CategoryException: Failure to retrieve Category data at org.nemours.webapp.ecard.model.CategoryFacade.getCategory(CategoryFacade.java:41) skip... skip... skip... Caused by: org.nemours.common.util.UtilsException: DBUtils: Failure while creating DB connection : org.nemours.common.pattern.blueprints.servicelocator.ServiceLocatorException: javax.naming.NamingException: Could not dereference object [Root exception is javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: jdbc not bound] at org.nemours.common.util.DBUtils.createConnection(DBUtils.java:95) at org.nemours.webapp.ecard.dao.MsSqlCategoryDAO.selectCategory(MsSqlCategoryDAO.java:61) at org.nemours.webapp.ecard.model.CategoryFacade.getCategory(CategoryFacade.java:39)
Ok so I can tell that the root problem is the JNDI lookup..
On Sun's server this worked fine and I didn't have to do anything else.
Is there anything additional I have to configure on JBoss in order for this to work?
Any help is appreciated...
