To view the discussion, visit: http://community.jboss.org/message/606799#606799 -------------------------------------------------------------- Hi all, I'm trying to get a SAR deployed to AS7. One of my MBeans is trying to bind itself into JNDI using NonSerializableFactory.rebind(name, this, true).  This apparently works fine on older jboss releases, but on AS7 I get this: 13:30:22,405 WARN  [org.ccci.ha.HighAvailabilityDataSource] (MSC service thread 1-4) Starting up HighAvailabilityDataSource ccpDatasource in PRIMARY mode 13:30:22,406 INFO  [stdout] (MSC service thread 1-4) fullName=jdbc/ccpDatasource 13:30:22,406 ERROR [org.jboss.msc.service.fail] (MSC service thread 1-4) MSC00001: Failed to start service jboss.mbean.service."jboss.jca:name=jdbc/ccpDatasource,service=DataSourceBinding".start: org.jboss.msc.service.StartException in service jboss.mbean.service."jboss.jca:name=jdbc/ccpDatasource,service=DataSourceBinding".start: Failed to execute legacy service start() method     at org.jboss.as.service.StartStopService.start(StartStopService.java:51)     at org.jboss.msc.service.ServiceControllerImpl$StartTask.run(ServiceControllerImpl.java:1675)     at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.runTask(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:886) [:1.6.0_24]     at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:908) [:1.6.0_24]     at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:680) [:1.6.0_24] Caused by: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException     at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) [:1.6.0_24]     at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:39) [:1.6.0_24]     at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:25) [:1.6.0_24]     at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:597) [:1.6.0_24]     at org.jboss.as.service.AbstractService.invokeLifecycleMethod(AbstractService.java:59)     at org.jboss.as.service.StartStopService.start(StartStopService.java:49)     ... 4 more Caused by: java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: Naming context is read-only     at org.jboss.as.naming.NamingContext.rebind(NamingContext.java:227)     at javax.naming.InitialContext.rebind(InitialContext.java:408) [:1.6.0_24]     at org.jboss.util.naming.NonSerializableFactory.rebind(NonSerializableFactory.java:185)     at org.jboss.util.naming.NonSerializableFactory.rebind(NonSerializableFactory.java:250)     at org.ccci.ha.HighAvailabilityDataSource.rebind(HighAvailabilityDataSource.java:53)     at org.ccci.ha.HighAvailabilityDataSource.start(HighAvailabilityDataSource.java:34)     ... 10 more So, it looks like JNDI is read-only now.  What is the recommended approach for making an MBean available in JNDI? Or, perhaps I'm just going about this all the wrong way.  What I really need is to make a custom javax.sql.Datasource available in JNDI, and I need to be able to do some logic on start-up.  (I don't want to use JCA for this, since this datasource simply delegates to one of two other standard (JCA) datasources.)  I'm sure I don't need this object to be an MBean, but that seemed the simplest thing at the time.  Is there a better way to do this?
