    data source is null

    edross15057

      I'm trying to configure a datasource for jboss and the tomcat web container.

      My problem is I'm allways getting a null when I do a ctx.lookup.

      I've added a postgres-ds.xml in the deploy directory
      I've added a jboss-web.xml in webapp/WEB-INF
      I've added a reference in the web.xml
      I've added a context.xml in the WEB_INF/META-INF
      I've copied the driver jar to about every directory in the world

      I've read about everything I can think of and still get a null datasource in a sample startup app.

      code snip
      public void init() {
      try{
      Context ctx = new InitialContext();

      if (ctx == null)
      throw new Exception("Opps - No Context");
      System.out.println("CTX Name in space "+ctx.getNameInNamespace());
      Object obj = ctx.lookup("java:/jdbc/GiftDevel");
      Context context = (Context)ctx.lookup("java:");

      DataSource ds = (DataSource) context.lookup("java:/jdbc/GiftDevel");
      if(ds != null){
      System.out.println(" ds is not null ");
      }

      I don't get lookup errors - just nulls.


      The logs all state the daasource is bound to java:jdbc/GifgDevel

      Everything seems to work but my application.

      I've tried about a billion different configurations, and all are the same

      Jboss 4.0.3SP1

      Anyone??

      thx

          The jar file should be in your <server-config>/lib and nowhere else.

          Could you post the *-ds.xml file, web.xml, etc. Also, please post context.xml
