Hi,

I've got a problem obtaining a UserTransaction from a client. What I did is

InitialContext ic = new InitialContext();
UserTransaction ut = (UserTransaction)ic.lookup("UserTransaction");

Everything went fine till here, but when I try to start a new UserTransaction with

ut.begin();

I get a SystemException saying:
java.lang.RuntimeException: UT factory lookup failed: javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: Name UserTransactionSessionFactory is not bound in this Context

I checked the JNDIView in the jmx-console and found the UserTransactionSessionFactory within the global Namespace.

So how to deal with this problem?
TIA
paka
