Hello,

I'm trying to access a Magnolia repository (using Derby DB) from another webapp,
both webapps are running under the same Tomcat 5.0.28 instance.
I've set up a "model 2" deployment model, as described on
http://jackrabbit.apache.org/doc/deploy/howto-model2.html

According to \WEB-INF\config\default\repositories.xml file, the JNDI name should
be the webapp name (<param name="bindName" value="${magnolia.webapp}" />).
But when trying to connect to the Magnolia repository from the other webapp
(JNDI lookup with webapp name), it always throws a "NameNotFoundException".

Does Magnolia globaly expose its JCR connection so that it can be accessed
through the JNDI global pool by another webapp ?
If not, how to achieve this ?
Am I trying to achieve something impossible ? Any hints ?

Thank you for your help,
Oliver

Current settings applied to my Magnolia 3.1m3 instance:

- created a Magnolia webapp context file
(/Tomcat/conf/Catalina/localhost/magnoliaAuthor.xml):
  <ResourceLink name="magnoliaAuthor" global="jcr/magnoliaAuthorGlobal"
type="javax.jcr.Repository"/>

- added into the /tomcat/conf/server.xml section <GlobalNamingResources>:
    <Resource name="jcr/magnoliaAuthorGlobal" auth="Container"
type="javax.jcr.Repository"/>
    <ResourceParams name="jcr/magnoliaAuthorGlobal">
     
<parameter><name>factory</name><value>org.apache.jackrabbit.core.jndi.BindableRepositoryFactory</value></parameter>
     
<parameter><name>configFilePath</name><value>/test/repositories/magnolia/repository/repository.xml</value></parameter>
     
<parameter><name>repHomeDir</name><value>/test/repositories/magnolia/repository</value></parameter>
    </ResourceParams>

- added into the Test webapp web.xml file:
    <resource-env-ref>
      <description>Content Repository</description>
      <resource-env-ref-name>jcr/magnoliaAuthorGlobal</resource-env-ref-name>
      <resource-env-ref-type>javax.jcr.Repository</resource-env-ref-type>
    </resource-env-ref>
