Hi, I've dredged through the archives and looked up all the documentation I could find before sending the mail.
I am running on Win 2k, Tomcat 4.0.2, JDk 1.4 and J2EE RI 1.3.1. I have a SOAP servlet in a standalone Tomcat. It posts to a JMS topic and creates/access entity EJBs, both of which are defined in J2EE. I am having a problem with JNDI lookup. I can find the JMS TopicConnectiofactory if I use the following context factory; com.sun.enterprise.naming.SerialInitContextFactory. This causes an exception when I lookup the bean using the required context factory: com.sun.jndi.cosnaming.CNCtxFactory I have tried to use the InitialContext to lookup both resources, but with no luck as the JNDI names are not bound to the Tomcat JNDI context. Questions: 1. I have looked up the JNDI How-to but it is not clear where and how I would reference the TopicConnectionFactory which is defined, out of the box, with J2EE RI. 2. Do I ned to create such a reference/mapping in order to access these J2EE resources. Any ideas appreciated, as I am well and truly stuck. /Sean -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
