ello, I have trying to use the datasource in my JBoss 4.2.2 server, but I am getting the error below. I have tried a number of permutations on the jndi name in the applicationcontext.xml file, but none seem to work. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. My jboss xxxDS.xml file look like: <local-tx-datasource> | <jndi-name>oracleDS</jndi-name> My applicationcontext.xml has the following value: | <bean id="dataSource" class="org.springframework.jndi.JndiObjectFactoryBean"> | <property name="jndiName">oracleDS</property> | | </bean> | I have also tried: java:OracleDS java:/oracleDS All of them result in the following exception: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'dataSource' defined in ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/applicationContext.xml]: Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: oracleDS not bound | Caused by: | javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: oracleDS not bound | at org.jnp.server.NamingServer.getBinding(NamingServer.java:529) | at org.jnp.server.NamingServer.getBinding(NamingServer.java:537) | at org.jnp.server.NamingServer.getObject(NamingServer.java:543) | at org.jnp.server.NamingServer.lookup(NamingServer.java:296) | at org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContext.lookup(NamingContext.java:667) | at org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContext.lookup(NamingContext.java:627) | at javax.naming.InitialContext.lookup(InitialContext.java:351) | at org.springframework.jndi.JndiTemplate$1.doInContext(JndiTemplate.java View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4147056#...
