[WF.9.0.2.Final] JNDI issues - accessing simple global binding

[hr.stoyanov]

Hi all,

I have issues reading globally configured JNDI values in WF902:

I have configured my WF902 instance to have a simple JNDI binding via the standalone.xml file like this:

....

<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:naming:2.0">

            <bindings>

                <simple name="java:global/ga" value="true" type="String"/>

            </bindings>

            <remote-naming/>

</subsystem>

....

In my web app, I am trying to look up  the value in a JSP like this:

...

<%

        String ga = null;

        try{

            ga = javax.naming.InitialContext.doLookup("java:global/ga");

        }catch(javax.naming.NameNotFoundException e){}

        ...

%>

which is not working - i am going in the empty catch clause.

Further, I tried to see value in the WF902 management console, and although "java:global/ga" shows up under "/subsystem=naming/binding=java:global/ga", there is no Data or anything else associated with it.

What am I doing wrong?

I followed the examples outlined here:

You need to change it as following:  [ type="String"    => type="java.lang.String" ]

        <subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:naming:2.0">
            <bindings>
                <simple name="java:global/ga" value="true" type="java.lang.String"/>
            </bindings>
            <remote-naming/>
        </subsystem>

CLI Output:

[standalone@localhost:9990 /] /subsystem=naming/binding=java\:global\/ga:read-attribute(name=type)
{
    "outcome" => "success",
    "result" => "java.lang.String"
}

[standalone@localhost:9990 /] /subsystem=naming/binding=java\:global\/ga:read-attribute(name=value)
{
    "outcome" => "success",
    "result" => "true"
}

[standalone@localhost:9990 /] /subsystem=naming/binding=java\:global\/ga:read-resource(recursive=true)
{
    "outcome" => "success",
    "result" => {
        "binding-type" => "simple",
        "cache" => undefined,
        "class" => undefined,
        "environment" => undefined,
        "lookup" => undefined,
        "module" => undefined,
        "type" => "java.lang.String",
        "value" => "true"
    }
}

My JSP is as following:

<h1>Hello World!!!</h1>
<%
        //To disable Google Analytics, configure a JNDI property, or use: http://localhost:8080/s4gwebapp/index.jsp?ga=false#StartPage   
        String ga = null;
        try{
            ga = javax.naming.InitialContext.doLookup("java:global/ga");
        }catch(javax.naming.NameNotFoundException e){}

        if ("false".equals(ga)) {
            out.println("Yahoooo! ga = " + ga);
        } else {
            out.println("Wqqqqqq! ga = " + ga);      
        }
%>

The Output i received is as following when accessing the application:

Hello World!!!

Wqqqqqq! ga = true
