First, I'll summarize any answers I get and post them to jboss-users.
I'm trying to map a generic datasource (as referenced in my code) to a specific datasource via jboss-web.xml. It ain't working for me, and I can't see why not... I *do* know that I'm missing something, just can't figure out what is missing! Code: InitialContext initialCtx = new InitialContext(); DataSource ds = (DataSource) initialCtx.lookup("GenericDS"); // or many other permutations web.xml: <resource-ref> <description>Generic DS</description> <res-ref-name>GenericDS</res-ref-name> <res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type> <res-auth>Container</res-auth> </resource-ref> jboss-web.xml: <resource-ref> <res-ref-name>GenericDS</res-ref-name> <res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type> <jndi-name>java:/jdbc/SpecificDS</jndi-name> </resource-ref> Jboss.jcml <mbean code="org.jboss.jdbc.XADataSourceLoader" name="DefaultDomain:service=XADataSource,name=jdbc/SpecificDS"> <attribute name="PoolName">jdbc/SpecificDS</attribute> ... STARTUP: I see the following in the log: INFO jdbc/SpecificDS jdbc/SpecificDS - XA Connection pool jdbc/SpecificDS bound to java:/jdbc/SpecificDS ... DEBUG EmbeddedCatalinaServiceSX - Linking 'GenericDS' to JNDI name: java:/jdbc/SpecificDS RUNTIME: initialCtx.lookup("GenericDS") fails with - javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: GenericDS not bound Other variations - just for fun: Failure java:jdbc/GenericDS (GenericDS not bound) Failure java:/jdbc/GenericDS (GenericDSnot bound) Failure java:GenericDS (GenericDS not bound) Failure java:/GenericDS (GenericDS not bound) Failure GenericDS (GenericDS not bound) Failure /GenericDS (GenericDS not bound) Failure jdbc/GenericDS (jdbc not bound) Failure /jdbc/GenericDS (jdbc not bound) Failure java:SpecificDS (SpecficDS not bound) Failure java:/SpecificDS (SpecficDS not bound) Failure SpecificDS (SpecficDS not bound) Failure /SpecificDS (SpecficDS not bound) These, of course, work: Success java:jdbc/SpecficDS Success java:/jdbc/SpecficDS I thought I had a good handle on this for EJBs, but am unable to pull this together for a servlet. Thoughts? Pointers? Anything? Thanks, David ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: OSDN - Tired of that same old cell phone?
