java.naming.provider.url parsing problem?

[csturtz]

I'm running integration tests from outside of the JBoss AS and am using the "jndi.properties" file to access the context.

I'm unable to ever get the connection because it seems there's a problem parsing the java.naming.provider.url value. I've tried many different values that i've found on the net.

if i use "jnp://localhost:1099":

javax.naming.CommunicationException: Could not obtain connection to any of these urls: "jnp://localhost:1099" and discovery failed with error: javax.naming.CommunicationException: Receive timed out [Root exception is java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Receive timed out] [Root exception is javax.naming.CommunicationException: Failed to connect to server "jnp:1099 [Root exception is javax.naming.ServiceUnavailableException: Failed to connect to server "jnp:1099 [Root exception is java.net.UnknownHostException: "jnp: "jnp]]]

what happend to the url for it to print this: [Root exception is java.net.UnknownHostException: "jnp: "jnp] ???


I can list all the other values i've tried and their corresponding results, but that would take more time than i have right now. Before i go to all that trouble, are there any known problems with this? Is there something i'm missing?


jndi.properties
java.naming.factory.initial=org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory
java.naming.provider.url=jnp://localhost:1099
java.naming.factory.url.pkgs=org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces

[peterj]

Which OS are you using? If Linux, what is in your /etc/hosts file? Do you have an entry for localhost?

If you telnet to port 1099 (telnet loachost 1099), what response do you get?

[csturtz]

OS is Windows XP

here's the response i'm getting from: telnet localhost 1099

I was finally able to get a connection using some different properties. Here's the jndi.propperties I am now using:

java.naming.factory.initial=org.jboss.naming.HttpNamingContextFactory
java.naming.provider.url=http://localhost:8080/invoker/JNDIFactory
java.naming.factory.url.=org.jboss.naming.client

Now, I'm getting:

javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: OracleDS not bound

even though the log during jboss startup says that it's bound:

11:33:47,819 INFO [ConnectionFactoryBindingService] Bound ConnectionManager 'jboss.jca:service=DataSourceBinding,name=OracleDS' to JNDI name 'java:OracleDS'

Plus, i have no problems when running the actual web application. It's only during integration tests where I'm outside the JBoss JVM that I am having this problem. So, I know the data source is bound and can be used without problems.

Here's the code getting the DS:

InitialContext initialContext = new InitialContext();
javax.sql.DataSource ds = (javax.sql.DataSource) initialContext.lookup("java:OracleDS");
Connection connection = ds.getConnection();

Ideas?

[peterj]

Change your jndi.properties file to read:

java.naming.factory.initial=org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory
java.naming.provider.url=jnp://localhost:1099
java.naming.factory.url=org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces

I hope I transcibed these correctly, I usually don't use a properties file preferring to set them in code.

[csturtz]

When i use the settings you've specified, I can't even get a connection, let alone try and get the data source. Those are the exact settings that I started out using, and gave me the exception that is posted in the first message of this thread.

Is there no way to get the DS with my current jndi.properties file (the only settings that i've been able to get a connection with)?

Thanks!

[peterj]

If you change this one line:

java.naming.provider.url=localhost:1099

does it still not work?

The response you got from telnet looks correct, it is fairly similar to what I get. So port 1099 is listening. Can you also access port 1098? In this case, telnet should connect but not show any response.

If you want to use your jndi property file settings, try dumping out the contents of the namepsace. See my sample code in http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=89429

Also see http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3968093

[csturtz]

When using that provder url i get:

javax.naming.CommunicationException [Root exception is java.rmi.ServerException: RemoteException occurred in server thread; nested exception is:
java.rmi.UnmarshalException: error unmarshalling arguments; nested exception is:
java.net.MalformedURLException: no protocol: and]

Also, I added the code you linked that prints out all the bindings for "java:". However, I am getting a NoClassDefFound for the class: org.jboss.ejb.plugins.keygenerator.hilo.HiLoKeyGeneratorFactory

I have yet to find the jar containing that class.

[peterj]

How did you install JBoss? I am asking because the HiLoKeyGeneratorFactory class, while it is part of the source and gets compiled, it never gets placed into any of the jar files (it would be in jboss.jar since that contains the regular key generators).

[peterj]

I used JNDVIew and I can see at least one HiLoKeyGeneratorFactory entry in the JNDI. So I guess that is normal. I still don't see how a class could exist without it being anywhere in the classpath, though. Found it. It is in server/default/deploy/uuid-key-generator.sar. Looks like I will have to enhance my class finder.

[csturtz]

Ok. I got the list of bindings. This first list is printed while running the application in JBoss. You can see a binding with name "OracleDS" (the datasource i'm needing). The second list is printed while running my integration tests. There are no datasource bindings at all!

[peterj]

The first list looks like what you typically get from the "java:" namepsace. The second list is from the default, or root, namespace. Not sure why you would get the root namepsace when you asked for "java:". I have a remote client around here somewhere. When I have a minute I will give it a try and let you know if that gives me any further insight into this issue.

[csturtz]

I think I've figured it out. I found an article that states that any name under "java:" is restricted to use inside the JBoss JVM. Through a little more searching, I found that by adding the following to your *-ds.xml file, the "java:" will not be added infront of whatever you have defined in the <jndi-name> tag. I haven't confirmed this will fix my problem, but i have a good feeling it will. I'll post back with the results.

<use-java-context>false</use-java-context>

[peterj]

Now that you mention it, the client app I have looks up EJB names in the root context. Never did look up data sources.

[csturtz]

I've run into another exception that doesn't provide much information. Line 881 of the following code is causing the error. Atleast i'm now getting past the lookup method!

879 InitialContext initialContext = new InitialContext();
880 javax.sql.DataSource ds = (javax.sql.DataSource) initialContext.lookup("OracleDS");
881 Connection connection = ds.getConnection();
