The only WAR of the EAR use a resource-env-ref : I give you a quick look of my configuration : web.xml <resource-env-ref id="ResourceEnvRef_1234792399813">         <description>         </description>         <resource-env-ref-name>spring/fileConfiguration</resource-env-ref-name>         <resource-env-ref-type>java.lang.String</resource-env-ref-type> </resource-env-ref> jboss-web.xml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <jboss-web>     <resource-env-ref>         <resource-env-ref-name>spring/fileConfiguration</resource-env-ref-name>         <jndi-name>spring/fileConfigurationName</jndi-name>     </resource-env-ref> </jboss-web> Code : String jndiName = "java:comp/env/spring/fileConfiguration";                 Context jndiContext = new InitialContext();                 Reference reference = (Reference) jndiContext.lookup(jndiName);                 RefAddr addr = reference.get(0);                 String applicationContextPath = addr.getContent().toString();                 applicationContext = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext(                         applicationContextPath); To create my resource, I'm using this example : http://community.jboss.org/docs/DOC-12811 http://community.jboss.org/wiki/LocalOnlyContextFactory And I add this line on the "bindings" : <entry>     <key>spring/fileConfigurationName</key>     <value class="java.lang.String">properties/spring/ServicesContext.xml</value> </entry> *My problem is that my lookup retrieve a String and not a javax.naming.Reference so I've got a ClassCastException : java.lang.String cannot be cast to javax.naming.Reference.* I tried to deploy this mbean to do a linkRef (and changing the jboss-web.xml redirection) with no success : <mbean code="org.jboss.naming.NamingAlias" name="com.bnppa.logviewer:alias=spring/fileConfigurationNameTEST">     <attribute name="FromName">spring/fileConfigurationLink</attribute>     <attribute name="ToName">spring/fileConfigurationName</attribute>     <depends>jboss:service=Naming</depends> </mbean:xml> An extract of my jmx-console : Global JNDI Namespace +- spring (class: org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContext)   |   +- fileConfigurationLink[link -> spring/fileConfigurationName] (class: javax.naming.LinkRef)   |   +- fileConfigurationName (class: java.lang.String) Anyone knows what's wrong with my configuration ?
