Tomcat + Oracle EJB's

[Neil Harvey]

Has anybody out there managed to get a servlet running via Tomcat to invoke an EJB living in an Oracle 8i database?

I've read a couple of threads about including all JARs in the Tomcat classpath, but this seems a bit clunky. Is there a more elegant solution?

I keep getting a javax.naming.NoInitialContextException, but when I explicitly set the INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, I get IllegalArgumentException. Oracle's official response to this is not to use Tomcat, but to use mod_ose and the Oracle Servlet Engine in 8.1.7 (though I've had little success with this either). I don't like this idea, I want to be able to use any 2.2 compliant servlet engine,.

Thanks,

Neil.
