I just saw this post over on the tomcat user list. Have you tried to
set this up in a simpler config w/ each webapp having a local repository
with db back-end? Otherwise I don't know as I've never even tried such
weird setup and can't for the life of me think of why you'd create a
global resource that's only used on one webapp.

Hi,
Resending cos I'm getting a pending message still.
Thanks in advance for any help you may be able to give. I've searched the
net for a couple of days now but with no success.
What I'm trying to do is setup global JNDI on tomcat 5.5 for use with
jackrabbit and Magnolia CMS but either it's not working or I have lost the
plot. I am trying to just get the magnolia test case up and running but
either complains about a lock on the repository or it cannot find the
context in JNDI.
A previous message on this subject said to include the resource in the
GlobalNamingResources element of server.xml along with the ResourceLink in
context.xml. This is what I have:
<Resource name="magnoliaAuthor"
auth="Container"
type="javax.jcr.Repository"
factory="org.apache.jackrabbit.core.jndi.BindableRepositoryFactory"
configFilePath="C:/msgn-work/magnolia/magnolia-3.5.4/apache-tomcat-5.5.25/webapps/magnoliaAuthor/WEB-INF/config/default/repositories.xml"
repHomeDir="c:/magnoliarepo/magnolia" />
in context.xml
<ResourceLink global="magnoliaAuthorGlobal" name="magnoliaAuthor"
type="javax.jcr.Repository" />
and in web.xml
<resource-env-ref>
<description>Jackrabbit Repository</description>
<resource-env-ref-name>magnoliaAuthor</resource-env-ref-name>
<resource-env-ref-type>javax.jcr.Repository</resource-env-ref-type>
</resource-env-ref>
Using this configuration doesn't appear to work as when I put some debugging
in my servlet the jndi context is empty.
The piece of servlet code is:
Context initContext = new InitialContext ();
Context envContext = (Context)initContext.lookup
("java:/comp/env");
Object o = envContext.lookup ("magnoliaAuthor"); // Should this
be the global name (doesn't work either way).
BindableRepository repo = (BindableRepository) o;
Hope someone can point me in the right direction.
Thanks,
Gareth
