External JNDI yields

[quaxi]

Hi,

I tried to configure an external JNDI store (Tibco EMS to lookup the Queues stored there) as presented in the JBOSS documentation, where I found an example on how to attach an LDAP server to JBOSS.
I changed it to

<mbean code="org.jboss.naming.ExternalContext"
 name="jboss.jndi:service=ExternalContext,jndiName=external/tibco">
 <attribute name="JndiName">external/tibco</attribute>
 <attribute name="Properties">
java.naming.factory.initial=com.tibco.tibjms.naming.TibjmsInitialContextFactory
 java.naming.provider.url=tibjmsnaming://localhost:7222
 </attribute>
 <attribute name="InitialContext">javax.naming.InitialContext</attribute>
 <attribute name="RemoteAccess">true</attribute>
</mbean>

(in the conf/jboss-service.xml file)

I got connection timeout exception which I resolved with the information found in previous post in ths forum by setting

jnp.disableDiscovery=true

in conf/jndi.properties

But now I get this Error:

--- MBEANS THAT ARE THE ROOT CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM ---
ObjectName: jboss.jndi:service=ExternalContext,jndiName=external/tibco
 State: FAILED
 Reason: javax.naming.ConfigurationException: No valid Context.PROVIDER_URL was
 found

The jar with the needed classes are in the server/lib directory.

I also found that this was a problem in the previously mentioned thread but unfortunatley no solution was posted there.

run.bat --version shows this:

===============================================================================

JBoss 4.0.3SP1 (build: CVSTag=JBoss_4_0_3_SP1 date=200510231054)

I am sure this must be a very silly config error somewhere,
thanks in advance for any help!
