Unable to use com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory

created by Matt Drees in JBoss AS7 Development - View the full discussion

Hi all,

 

My project has a piece that needs to read from our ldap.  My code looks something like this:

 

 

public DirContext createLdapContext()
    {
        Properties env = new Properties();
        env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory");
        ...
        return new InitialDirContext(env);
    }

 

However, it appears the ModuleClassLoader won't load the com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory:

 

 

    ...
Caused by: javax.naming.NamingException: Failed instantiate InitialContextFactory com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory from classloader ModuleClassLoader for Module "deployment.ccp.war:main" from Service Module Loader

    at org.ccci.ccp.security.LdapContextProducer.createLdapContext(LdapContextProducer.java:59) [classes:]
    ... 65 more

 

 

In digging some, I found the "jboss.modules.system.pkgs" property, and it looks like i could set this to "com.sun.jndi.ldap" and this exception should go away.  Is this the right way to address this?

 

Thanks!

-Matt
