[jboss-user] [JNDI/Naming/Network] - Configuring a datasource for web application

I'm a little confused on how I can get a datasource hooked up via JNDI for my web application. I'm used to working on Tomcat and to configure the JNDI, it was a matter of dropping an xml file into the server's conf directory but I'm having a difficult time getting my app to work inside JBoss. I have my web.xml that refers to the JNDI resource name as such: <resource-ref> Resource reference to a factory for java.sql.Connection instances that may be used for talking to a particular database that is configured in the server.xml file. <res-ref-name>jdbc/myDataBase</res-ref-name> <res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type> <res-auth>Container</res-auth> </resource-ref> I also have a jboss-web.xml which contains: <jboss-web> <resource-ref> <res-ref-name>jdbc/myDataBase</res-ref-name> <res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type> <jndi-name>java:/myDataBase</jndi-name> </resource-ref> </jboss-web> However, when Jboss starts up and loads my war file, it tells me that: org.jboss.deployment.DeploymentException: Error during deploy; - nested throwable: (javax.naming.NamingException: resource-ref: jdbc/myDatabase has no valid JNDI binding. Check the jboss-web/resource-ref.) Is there some other file I need to configure?Can someone tell me what needs to be done to associate my datasource via JNDI?
