[jboss-user] [Installation, Configuration & DEPLOYMENT] - "NamingContextFactory class not found" error during deployme

[alskor]

Hi all!

I have a legacy app I need to migrate from JBoss 3.2.7 to 5.1.0 GA.
I have found 13 problems so far and I resolved 12 of them.
The problem I have now is: 
Jboss shows this error during startup:

I see jnpserver.jar is present in common\lib\ folder, so don't really understand why this file can't be found. I also tried to copy jnpserver.jar to my_server\lib folder, but it didn't help.

I'm using Windows XP SP3, Sun JDK 1.5.0_18, JBoss AS 5.1.0 GA.
Which other info should I provide so it would be easier to help me? the startup script we use? jboss config files? jboss or app  lib folder contents?
