[jboss-user] [JNDI and Naming] - Cannot Start NamingBeanImpl on Mac OSX 10.6.4

Mark Hansen [http://community.jboss.org/people/khookguy12] created the discussion "Cannot Start NamingBeanImpl on Mac OSX 10.6.4" To view the discussion, visit: http://community.jboss.org/message/567197#567197 -------------------------------------------------------------- For unit testing, I need to start NamingBeanImpl as a standalone service (without starting my container - JBoss AS 5.1.0.GA).  I cannot get it to work on my Mac OSX 10.6.4. Specifically, I'm trying to implement unit tests (TestNG) with HornetQ standalone with Spring, and have followed various tutorials. (e.g., http://www.javacodegeeks.com/2010/06/spring-3-hornetq-21-integration.html http://www.javacodegeeks.com/2010/06/spring-3-hornetq-21-integration.html) I cannot get org.jnp.server.NamingBeanImpl to start.  Gives me: Caused  by: javax.naming.CommunicationException: Failed to connect to server  /127.0.0.1:1099 [Root exception is  javax.naming.ServiceUnavailableException: Failed to connect to server  /127.0.0.1:1099 [Root exception is java.net.ConnectException: Connection  refused]] However, if JBoss is running in a separate JVM, then I have no problems starting NamingBeanImpl I have this in Spring: <bean name="namingServerImpl" class="org.jnp.server.NamingBeanImpl"         init-method="start" destroy-method="stop"/> I've also tried a basic test like this: NamingBeanImpl jnpServer = new NamingBeanImpl(); jnpServer.start(); Again, when JBoss is running elsewhere, it works.  Otherwise, I get the "Connection Refused" exception. JNDI is set up with jndi.properties - java.naming.factory.initial=org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory java.naming.factory.url.pkgs=org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces java.naming.provider.url=jnp://127.0.0.1:1099 I've  also tried starting the rmiregistry in a separate JVM.  (Since I seem  to recall that sometimes on OS X, this is necessary).  Then the  NamingBeanImpl hangs.  Do I also need to start something else on port  1098? Any help would be much appreciated!! -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/567197#567197] Start a new discussion in JNDI and Naming at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
