Hi... Please help me with following: I want to have acces to files in directory c:\datafiles\channels\channel1\ on harddisk through JNDI - I mean reading, creating etc.
So I deploy this service in my JBoss 3.0:
(...)

data

java.naming.factory.initial=com.sun.jndi.fscontext.RefFSContextFactory
java.naming.provider.url=file:c:/datafiles/

javax.naming.InitialContext

(...)

JNDIView shows everything OK - files bound perfectly to JNDI tree. But following code doesn't work. It fires javax.naming.CannotProceedException (complete output under the code). In my jndi.properities I've got:
java.naming.factory.initial=org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory
java.naming.factory.url.pkgs=org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces
java.naming.provider.url=localhost

code:
(...)
File scriptFile;
Context scriptContext;
ObjectOutputStream scriptObjectOutputStream;
try
{
scriptContext = new InitialContext(System.getProperties());
scriptFile = (File)javax.rmi.PortableRemoteObject.narrow(
scriptContext.lookup("data/Channels/Channel1/script.dsf"),
File.class);
}
catch(NamingException ne)
{
System.err.println("ERROR binding script file");
ne.printStackTrace();
}
(...)

fires:

javax.naming.CannotProceedException; remaining name
'Channels/Channel1/script.dsf'

javax.naming.spi.ContinuationContext.getTargetContext(ContinuationContext.java:43)

javax.naming.spi.NamingManager.getContinuationContext(NamingManager.java:766)
