javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: Name [comp/env] is not bound in this Context
spring
Solution
I faced similar problem with tomcat and did the following in eclipse to solve it:
- In the server's context.xml, included the jdbc connection details.
- Stop the server
- Clean the project(`Project --> Clean`) , the tomcat server (`Server--> Right Click --> Clean`) and Tomcat work directory (`Server--> Right Click--> Clean Tomcat Work Directory`).
- Start the server and run.
Even after maintaining the details in context.xml, sometimes it might not get reflected. In such cases follow step#3 and hope it helps.
Problem
I'm developing a spring application which uses tomcat server managed connection pool. I defined datasource in tag in context.xml of tomcat: (i am using spring 2.0.7) in context.xml: ``` <context> <Resource name="jdbc/irb_prod" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource" factory="org.apache.tomcat.dbcp.dbcp.BasicDataSourceFactory" username="xxx" password="xxx" driverClassName="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver" url="jdbc:oracle:thin:@xxx:1521:xxx" maxWait="1000" removeAbandoned="true" maxActive="5" maxIdle="5" removeAbandonedTimeout="60" logAbandoned="true"/> </context> ``` And in my ApplicationContext.xml(i.e in spring configuration file), the code is: ``` <bean id="dataSource" class="org.springframework.jndi.JndiObjectFactoryBean"> <property name="jndiName"> <value>java:comp/env/jdbc/irb_prod</value> </property> </bean> <!-- Transaction manager for a single JDBC DataSource --> <bean id="transactionManager" class="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DataSourceTransactionManager"> <property name="dataSource"><ref local="dataSource"/></property> </bean> ``` When the application starts, I get the following errors: ``` javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: Name java:/comp/env/mypool is not bound in this Context org.apache.naming.NamingContext.lookup(NamingContext.java:803) org.apache.naming.NamingContext.lookup(NamingContext.java:159) org.apache.naming.SelectorContext.lookup(SelectorContext.java:158) javax.naming.InitialContext.lookup(Unknown Source) org.springframework.jndi.JndiTemplate$1.doInContext(JndiTemplate.java:132) org.springframework.jndi.JndiTemplate.execute(JndiTemplate.java:88) org.springframework.jndi.JndiTemplate.lookup(JndiTemplate.java:130) org.springframework.jndi.JndiTemplate.lookup(JndiTemplate.java:155) org.springframework.jndi.JndiLocatorSupport.lookup(JndiLocatorSupport.java:93) org.springframework.jndi.JndiObjectLocator.lookup(JndiObjectLocator.java:105) org.springframework.jndi.JndiObjectFactoryBean.lookupWithFallback(JndiObjectFactoryBean.java :197) org.springframework.jndi.JndiObjectFactoryBean.afterPropertiesSet(JndiObjectFactoryBean.java:184) org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.invokeInitMethods(AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.java:1477) org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.initializeBean(AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.java:1417) org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.doCreateBean(AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.java:519) org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.createBean(AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.java:456) org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractBeanFactory$1.getObject(AbstractBeanFactory.java:291) org.springframework.beans.factory.support.DefaultSingletonBeanRegistry.getSingleton(DefaultSingletonBeanRegistry.java:222) org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractBeanFactory.doGetBean(AbstractBeanFactory.java:288) org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractBeanFactory.getBean(AbstractBeanFactory.java:190) org.springframework.beans.factory.support.DefaultListableBeanFactory.preInstantiateSingletons(DefaultListableBeanFactory.java:563) org.springframework.context.support.AbstractApplicationContext.finishBeanFactoryInit ialization(AbstractApplicationContext.java:736) org.springframework.context.support.AbstractApplicationContext.refresh(AbstractAppli cationContext.java:369) org.springframework.context.support.ClassPathXmlApplicationContext.<init> (ClassPathXmlApplicationContext.java:123) org.springframework.context.support.ClassPathXmlApplicationContext.<init> (ClassPathXmlApplicationContext.java:66) MainServlet.init(MainServlet.java:21) javax.servlet.GenericServlet.init(GenericServlet.java:160) org.apache.catalina.valves.ErrorReportValve.invoke(ErrorReportValve.java:100) org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve.invoke(AccessLogValve.java:541) org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteAdapter.service(CoyoteAdapter.java:383) org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Processor.process(Http11Processor.java:243) org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Protocol$Http11ConnectionHandler.process(Http11Protocol.java :188) org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Protocol$Http11ConnectionHandler.process(Http11Protocol.java:166) org.apache.tomcat.util.net.JIoEndpoint$SocketProcessor.run(JIoEndpoint.java:288) java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(Unknown Source) java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(Unknown Source) java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source) ``` please help me to solve this problem.
