[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Updated: (JBAS-3759) MalformedURLException: unknown protocol: jndi

[ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-3759?page=all ] PickATrail updated JBAS-3759: ----------------------------- Summary: MalformedURLException: unknown protocol: jndi (was: MalformedURLException for "jndi" protocol) Description: I am getting a MalformedURLException when I instantiate a URL with the "jndi" protocol. Here's some example JSP code: final ServletContext ctx = session.getServletContext(); final String resourcePath = "/WEB-INF/web.xml"; final URL url = ctx.getResource(resourcePath); final String externalForm = url.toExternalForm(); // The value of externalForm is something like // "jndi:/localhost/problem/WEB-INF/web.xml". // The following line fails under some specifi situation // -- read on :) new URL(externalForm); This code usually works as expected. However, if I deploy and access the BIRT WebViewerExample application (BIRT is an Eclipse.org project), the 'new URL("jndi:....")' line fails with the following stack trace: java.net.MalformedURLException: unknown protocol: jndi at java.net.URL.(URL.java:544) at java.net.URL.(URL.java:434) at java.net.URL.(URL.java:383) at org.apache.jsp.index_jsp._jspService(...) ... This is really puzzling because the URL class remembers the protocol handlers, and I have already instantiated a URL for "jndi" successfully. I have tried to reproduce the problem on Tomcat 5.5.20 and 5.0.28, without success. So it seems to be a JBoss specific problem. I'm using JBoss 4.0.4 GA on Linux; JVM build is 1.4.2_11-b06. The version of BIRT I use is 2.1.1. was: I am getting a MalformedURLException when I instantiate a URL with the "jndi" protocol.
