I'm a little confused on how I can get a datasource hooked up via JNDI for my web application. I'm used to working on Tomcat and to configure the JNDI, it was a matter of dropping an xml file into the server's conf directory but I'm having a difficult time getting my app to work inside JBoss.
I have my web.xml that refers to the JNDI resource name as such:
<resource-ref>
Resource reference to a factory for java.sql.Connection
instances that may be used for talking to a particular
database that is configured in the server.xml file.
<res-ref-name>jdbc/myDataBase</res-ref-name>
<res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
<res-auth>Container</res-auth>
</resource-ref>
I also have a jboss-web.xml which contains:
<jboss-web>
<resource-ref>
<res-ref-name>jdbc/myDataBase</res-ref-name>
<res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
<jndi-name>java:/myDataBase</jndi-name>
</resource-ref>
</jboss-web>
However, when Jboss starts up and loads my war file, it tells me that:
org.jboss.deployment.DeploymentException: Error during deploy; - nested throwable: (javax.naming.NamingException: resource-ref: jdbc/myDatabase has no valid JNDI binding. Check the jboss-web/resource-ref.)
Is there some other file I need to configure?Can someone tell me what needs to be done to associate my datasource via JNDI?
Thanks
Justin
