Hi,

I am having a problem looking up for jndi from my webapp. I am using jboss-4.0.4.CR2 and java 1.5. Right now in my application I don't have any ejb's. I only have a few servlets. My application is currently bundled as a .war file.

The jndi configuration I have is as follows:
web.xml

<resource-env-ref>
<resource-env-ref-name>QuestionWriter1</resource-env-ref-name>
<resource-env-ref-type>com.mycompany.survey.QuestionWriter1</resource-env-ref-type>
</resource-env-ref>

I have several QuestionWriters.

In the jboss-web.xml my config is

<resource-env-ref>
<resource-env-ref-name>QuestionWriter1</resource-env-ref-name>
<jndi-name>java:/QuestionWriter1</jndi-name>
</resource-env-ref>

I have a resource-env-ref in jboss-web for each resource-env-ref tag in the web.xml

The way I look in my code is

Context env = (Context) new InitialContext().lookup("java:comp/env");
qw = (QuestionWriter) env.lookup("QuestionWriter1");

Can anyone tell me what is that I am doing wrong. I try to look into the jndi view in the jmx-console and I dont find any of there QuestionWriters.

Is there any other configuration I am missing. I place my war file in the deploy folder of jboss. I am using the ejb3-clustered instance of jboss this is because in the future we are going to have ejb's.

The exception it throws is as follows

I have the same code running in tomcat with the <Resource tag in the server.xml of tomcat.

Thanks in advance.
