java.lang.Exception: Attempted to use a 5.0 DataSource outside of a 2.3 servlet

[Maneesh JQestion]

Hi 2 all

I am using WS RAD 6.0 for struts J2EE Application.In my application I have used JNDI. While executing the application it throws

com.ibm.websphere.naming.CannotInstantiateObjectException: Exception occurred while the JNDI NamingManager was processing a javax.naming.Reference object. [Root exception is java.lang.Exception: Attempted to use a 5.0 DataSource outside of a 2.3 servlet]

Although Datasource test was successful in Application server (when i was creating datasource )

in console it display:

[2/24/06 14:08:31:732 IST] 0000002b ConnectionFac E J2CA0106E: A 5.0 DataSource was attempted to be used in a WebModule that was not level 2.3.

Hi
I've seen the error "Attempted to use a 5.0 DataSource ..." when I've created a version 5 datasource and my web.xml refers to the XML DTD for the Servlet 2.2 deployment descriptor


< !DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.2//EN" "http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2_2.dtd">;


I changed this to use the XML DTD for the Servlet 2.3 deployment descriptor.


< !DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN" "http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd">;

Do you change all the web.xml files, or just the one under the web-inf directory, not the sub-directories

Hi Chris
Each Web Application will have its own web.xml under the WEB-INF directory. I'm not sure why multiple web.xml files exist under sub directories for your webapp. Are the sub direcories created by yourself/another developer ?

The change only needs to be made in the web.xml which has a Datasource resource ref added and the datasource in question(identified by JNDI name) has been defined as a version 5 datasource.
