how to look up CacheManager on JBOSS 6

HI guys

When looking up CacheManager from JNDI on JBOSS 6 as follows:

1. ctx                                         = new InitialContext();
2. manager                                        = (CacheManager)ctx.lookup("java:CacheManager");

I get the below exception on line 2:

java.lang.ClassCastException: org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContext cannot be cast to org.jboss.cache.CacheManager

Why is the cast to CacheManager failing? pls help

Looks like you get a different object, try the lookup without casting and log what kind of object you get.

I see no CacheManager within the global JNDI namespace of JB6

The object returned from the lookup is:

org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContext@f670f5
