Javax.naming.LinkException: . Root exception is javax.naming.NameNotFoundException

Question

Hi
I have a startup class which needs to access a local entity bean. It used to work
in weblogic 6.1, i am currently migrating to 8.1 and i get a Link Exception. I
tried to make the startup class as a listener with in the application (EAR), it
still complains.
Since it worked in 6.1 i am sure there should be a way for a startup class to
access a local EJB, please help, i have seen lot of posting regarding this issue
in the newsgroup but no clear answer.
Any one who faced this problem before and had it solved please do repsond ASAP.
U can mail to me at [email protected]
Thanks

Answer 1

Are you sure the EJB deployed with that JNDI name?
Can you show me your weblogic-ejb-jar.xml?

Hi,
Do we have a solution for this problem? I am encountering this problem with an
Applciation Lifecycle Listener. I have deployed this Listener with my EAR file
and it accesses a local ejb (stateful) in its postStart() method. The JNDI look
up is causing a LinkException (root exception is NameNotFoundException)
I am not at my work PC but the application was something like this.
"weblogic-application.xml" had something like.
<listener>
<listener-class>MyListener</listener-class>
<listener-uri>mylistener.jar</listener-uri>
</listener>
where mylistener.jar was placed at the root of the EAR file.
MyListener.java was something like,
import weblogic.application.ApplicationLifecycleListener;
import weblogic.application.ApplicationLifecycleEvent;
import mypackage.mylocalhome;
import mypackage.mylocal;
import javax.naming.*;
public class MyListener extends ApplicationLifecycleListener {
public void preStart(ApplicationLifecycleEvent evt) {
System.out.println
("MyListener(preStart) -- we should always see you..");
} // preStart
public void postStart(ApplicationLifecycleEvent evt) {
try {
System.out.println
("MyListener(postStart) -- we should always see you..");
Context ctx = new InitialContext();
mylocalhome localhome = (mylocalhome)ctx.lookup("MYLOCALJNDINAME");
mylocal localobj = localhome.create();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} // postStart
public void preStop(ApplicationLifecycleEvent evt) {
System.out.println
("MyListener(preStop) -- we should always see you..");
} // preStop
public void postStop(ApplicationLifecycleEvent evt) {
System.out.println
("MyListener(postStop) -- we should always see you..");
} // postStop
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println
("MyListener(main): in main .. we should never see you..");
} // main
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Arun

We'll need some more info. Can you show me your weblogic-ejb-jar.xml,
the code you are using to lookup the bean, and the full exception?
