JNDI Lookup is not working in thread's run method AS 7.1

[sandip.jorwekar]

My code is working properly when i don't use thread  ( It does JNDI lookup and return home stub and also and also create the remote object stub)

But When i use Thread (run method) to do JNDI lookup, at that time JNDI lookup for home stub is successful but it fails when home.create() method is get called and it returns with below error

java.lang.IllegalStateException: No EJB receiver available for handling [appName:,modulename:auroraclientcommon,distinctname:]

my code snippet is as below and i get the error at Book xref1=bookHome.create();

public void run() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
System.out.println("runnable");
BookHome bookHome = null;
try { bookHome = (BookHome) ctx.lookup("app/Book!test.BookHome"); }

Book xref1=bookHome.create();
System.out.println("run "+xref1);
} catch (Exception e) { // TODO Auto-generated catch block e.printStackTrace(); }
}

Are threads "already" allowed in the J2EE specification ?

Threads were prohibited in the J2EE specifications since the first version (until now ?). They fail in context lookup because they do not have the Container Context.

Try to use the lookup as if you're using an external client, maybe this could help.

If you wanna an correct thread approach in J2EE, try to use JMS queue.

Threads are always forbidden inside a JEE application, it is in the responsibility of the server.

but you might use Asynchronous EJB's according to the EJB3.1 spec.

Sandip, how do you initialize the InitialContext before issuing lookup?

Try to remove property "jboss.naming.client.ejb.context" in a Properties object passed to InitialContext

and use jboss-ejb-client.properties in your client.
