Hi,
Thanks for the reply. I am thinking by option 1 you mean, using webservices.
I am trying to use option 2 as in the code below
---
if (ctx == null) {
Hashtable environment = new Hashtable();
environment
.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,
"
org.apache.jackrabbit.core.jndi.provider.DummyInitialContextFactory");
environment.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "localhost");
ctx = new InitialContext(environment);
RegistryHelper.registerRepository(ctx, REPO_NAME, CONFIG_FILE,
REPO_HOME_DIR, true);
}
Repository r = (Repository) ctx.lookup(REPO_NAME);
----
This is from the
http://www.artima.com/lejava/articles/contentrepositoryP.html example. And I
am using the jackrabbit server as my webapp.
I know that the repository is being found, but the lock does not allow it to
connect. The code hiccups at RegistryHelper.registerRepository....
What am I missing here.
thanks for the help.

Hi Vikas,
To my knowledge, at any point of time the Repository home has to be
associated with one active repository instance. you may need to
shutdown the webapp project in order to run another application that
uses the same home directory.
If you want to run two different application to use the same
repository instance,
you can,
1. run the repository as a separate project and expose the service
methods.
2. look up the RepositoryImpl JNDI from different application
Hope the above information is helpful.
Thanks
SRA
