Could not retrieve datasource via JNDI url

[sachins]

I have configured Jboss 5.0.0 with PostgreSQL, I renamed the PostgreSQLDS to DefaultDS in the postgres-ds.xml.

When I deploy an application, it is giving me:

org.quartz.JobPersistenceException: Failed to obtain DB connection from data source 'myDS': java.sql.SQLException: Could not retrieve datasource via JNDI url 'java:/DefaultDS' java.sql.SQLException: Object at JNDI URL 'java:/DefaultDS' is not a DataSource. [See nested exception: java.sql.SQLException: Could not retrieve datasource via JNDI url 'java:/DefaultDS' java.sql.SQLException: Object at JNDI URL 'java:/DefaultDS' is not a DataSource.

Am I missing something here?

Are you packaging any jar files containing javax.sql.* package? If yes, remove them from your application packaging. If that does not solve the issue, please post the output of the JNDI tree by following the steps mentioned here http://www.jboss.org/community/docs/DOC-9583

While posting logs or xml content or code, please remember to wrap it in a code block by using the Code button in the message editor window. Please use the Preview button to ensure that your post is correctly formatted.

Thanks a lot. It works..

Still struggling with some other things though, actually the application was wriiten to work for jboss-4.2.2 now I am porting it to v5.0.0.

Any specific things to look for, anything you suggest?

Depends on what issue you are running into :) If it's not related to this thread then open a new one in an appropriate forum and someone will be able to help. And if it's specific to JBossAS5, then there's a dedicated forum here http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewforum&f=287
