javax.naming .NameNotFoundException:

[Pradeep bhatt]

I have integrated ActiveMQ. ActiveMq connectionfactory has been bound to the JNDI name 'java:activemq/QueueConnectionFactory'.

11:21:03,670 INFO [ConnectionFactoryBindingService] Bound ConnectionManager 'jboss.jca:service=ConnectionFactoryBinding
,name=activemq/QueueConnectionFactory' to JNDI name 'java:activemq/QueueConnectionFactory'


In the client I am trying to do the JNDI lookup of the connection factory.

ic = new InitialContext();
cf = (ConnectionFactory)ic.lookup("activemq/QueueConnectionFactory");

I am getting

Question: When you say 'client' is it a standalone client? If yes then the java namespace of the server wont be visible to this client.

The other part, instead of the code below:

ic = new InitialContext();
cf = (ConnectionFactory)ic.lookup("activemq/QueueConnectionFactory");

Try this out:

cf = (ConnectionFactory)ic.lookup("java:/activemq/QueueConnectionFactory");

[Pradeep bhatt]

My client is running outside of JBoss. I tried as

 cf = (ConnectionFactory)ic.lookup("java:/activemq/QueueConnectionFactory");   

.It did not work.

Alternately, you can try the following:

- Go to http://localhost:8080/jmx-console
- You will find service=JNDIView
- Click on it
- On the page that comes up, click on the Invoke button next to the 'list' method
- The next page that comes up will display the jndi names and the corresponding objects bound to the JNDI
- In this list of jndi names check where your object is bound
- If you are not able to decipher the contents of the JNDI tree, post the output here.

My client is running outside of JBoss.

That explains it. The java:/ namespace will NOT be visible to a standalone client.

How have you configured the ActiveMQ ConnectionFactory? Can you post the configuration file

[Pradeep bhatt]

I am seeing it under java: Namespace

+- activemq (class: org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContext)
| +- QueueConnectionFactory (class: org.apache.activemq.ra.ActiveMQConnectionFactory)
| +- TopicConnectionFactory (class: org.apache.activemq.ra.ActiveMQConnectionFactory)

Should it be under global JNDI Namespace?

Yes, to make it visible to the standalone client(which is outside the server JVM) you will have to configure the jndi name in the global namespace. While configuring the ConnectionFactory, you can do it in the xml file.

How I do that in the above xml file.Thanks for your help so far.

Try this one:

      <xa-transaction/>
[B]      <use-java-context>false</use-java-context>[/B]

      <security-domain-and-application>JmsXARealm</security-domain-and-application>
   </tx-connection-factory>

I guess, you wont get the NameNotFoundException after this change, but you might observe that the object that is returned is null(not sure though).
Let us know about the outcome.

[Pradeep bhatt]

It works but I am getting null object.

[Jaikiran Pai]

It works but I am getting null object.

These links might help:

JBoss JCA Forum

Getting null when doing a lookup on ConnectionFactory?

These links mention the reason why the Connection factory is not available outside the app server

[Pradeep bhatt]

Thanks. Now I have moved the client code inside of JBoss.

[Tom Baker]

Is there an option to run this from a standalone application however? What if the client code cannot run in the same JBoss container where active-mq is deployed?
