problem to bind hibernate session factory to JNDI

[davidchen]

Hi, there:

Searching the forum, it seems a quite old problem, but didn't get any clear answer yet. Using JBoss-4.0.3sp1, hibernate3.jar, following document, I deployed a test har into my default/deploy directory, and I got that very famous "Not binding factory to JNDI" log, and my client side code can not find the session factory.

My jboss-service.xml is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<server>
<mbean code="org.jboss.hibernate.jmx.Hibernate" name="jboss.adminguide:name=ExampleSessionFactory">
<attribute name="DatasourceName">java:/DefaultDS</attribute>
<attribute name="Dialect">
 org.hibernate.dialect.Oracle9Dialect
</attribute>
<attribute name="SessionFactoryName">
 java:/hibernate/ExampleSessionFactory
</attribute>
</mbean>
</server>

And my har file doesn't include any lib jar files, only classes files and hbm.xml files. After deploying to jboss, I got logs like:

INFO [org.hibernate.impl.SessionFactoryObjectFactory] Not binding factory to JNDI, no JNDI name configured
INFO [org.hibernate.util.NamingHelper] JNDI InitialContext properties:{}
INFO [org.hibernate.impl.SessionFactoryImpl] Checking 0 named queries
INFO [org.jboss.hibernate.jmx.Hibernate] SessionFactory successfully built and bound into JNDI [java:/hibernate/ExampleSessionFactory]

However, in my client code,

(SessionFactory)ctx.lookup("java:/hibernate/ExampleSessionFactory");

throws NamingException: hibernate not bound

Could any one please give me some hints or solutions?
Hightly appreciated if any comments or suggestions.

Thanks a lot in advance

I guess it was my problem. It seems that HAR component is similiar to MBean, which can not be accessed directly by java client outside jboss. It seems that a easy way to access har component by outside jboss client is to through a session bean facade. Am I right?

Highly appreciated if any comments or suggestions.

Thanks a lot in advance
