Invoke bpel from java - Failed to create "ejb/collaxa/system/DeliveryBean

Question

Hi,
I have a very simple java class to invoke CreditRatingProcess sample:
String ssn = null;
if (ssn == null)
ssn = "123-12-1234";
String xml =
"<ssn xmlns=\"http://services.otn.com\">" + ssn + "</ssn>";
Locator locator = new Locator("default", "oc4jadmin", "localhost");
IDeliveryService deliveryService =
(IDeliveryService)locator.lookupService(IDeliveryService.SERVICE_NAME);
// construct the normalized message and send to Oracle BPEL Process Manager
NormalizedMessage nm = new NormalizedMessage();
nm.addPart("payload", xml);
NormalizedMessage res =
deliveryService.request("CreditRatingService", "process", nm);
Map payload = res.getPayload();
System.out.println("BPELProcess CreditRatingService executed!<br>");
System.out.println("Credit Rating is " + payload.get("payload"));
When I try to execute, I have the following error:
java.lang.Exception: Failed to create "ejb/collaxa/system/DeliveryBean" bean; exception reported is: "javax.naming.NoInitialContextException: Need to specify class name in environment or system property, or as an applet parameter, or in an application resource file: java.naming.factory.initial

Hi,
Thanks fro your answer. But it does not work ...
My demo runs on my laptop (SOA10.1.3 DP / JDeveloper 10.1.3)
This is my code:
public void test() {
String xml = "<name xmlns=\"http://samples.otn.com/helloworld\">" + "test" + "</name>";
Hashtable jndi = null;
jndi = new Hashtable();
// Change the PROVIDER_URL to your BPEL PM host...
jndi.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "ormi://localhost/orabpel");
jndi.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "com.evermind.server.rmi.RMIInitialContextFactory");
jndi.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, "admin");
jndi.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "welcome");
jndi.put("dedicated.connection", "true");
Locator locator = null;
try {
locator = new Locator("default","bpel", jndi);
} catch (ServerException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
IDeliveryService deliveryService = (IDeliveryService)locator.lookupService(IDeliveryService.SERVICE_NAME );
// construct the normalized message and send to Oracle BPEL Process Manager
NormalizedMessage nm = new NormalizedMessage( );
System.out.println(xml);
nm.addPart("payload" , xml );
try {
deliveryService.post("HelloWorld", "initiate", nm);
} catch (ServerException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (RemoteException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
and that's my error:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/ejb/EJBException
     at com.oracle.bpel.client.util.ExceptionUtils.handleServerException(ExceptionUtils.java:76)
     at com.oracle.bpel.client.delivery.DeliveryService.getDeliveryBean(DeliveryService.java:254)
     at com.oracle.bpel.client.delivery.DeliveryService.post(DeliveryService.java:174)
     at com.oracle.bpel.client.delivery.DeliveryService.post(DeliveryService.java:149)
     at docsdemo.ui.XMLMessageHelper.test(XMLMessageHelper.java:62)
     at docsdemo.ui.tests.Tests.<init>(Tests.java:15)
     at docsdemo.ui.tests.Tests.main(Tests.java:20)
I don't understand because I created a simple JSP to invoke helloWorld process (same code), it's works !!
Any suggestion?
