JNDI LookUp does not work in WSAD5.0

Question

Hi,
I have an independent java class which creates Data Source in WASD 5.0, and this works fine to get data source when the server is 4.0, but does not work for server 5.0, here is the code:
public static void main(String[] args) throws NamingException {
     javax.naming.InitialContext initialContext = null;
     java.util.Hashtable htContextEnvironment = new java.util.Hashtable();
        htContextEnvironment.put(javax.naming.Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "com.ibm.websphere.naming.WsnInitialContextFactory");
        htContextEnvironment.put(javax.naming.Context.DNS_URL,"dns://127.0.0.1");
     htContextEnvironment.put(javax.naming.Context.PROVIDER_URL,"iiop://127.0.0.1:2809/");
        initialContext = new javax.naming.InitialContext(htContextEnvironment);
        System.out.println("Initial Context = " + initialContext.getNameInNamespace());
        Hashtable ht = initialContext.getEnvironment();
        DataSource ds = (DataSource) initialContext.lookup("jndi/abcd");
        System.out.println("Data Source = \n" + ds);
}The only change which I need to make is change the port name from 2809 [5.0] to 900[4.0], the jndi name in both server is defined as "jndi/abcd"
I always get the initial context in both cases, but can not get data source. For 5.0, I get the following exception:
javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: jndi/abcd
     at com.ibm.ejs.ns.jndi.CNContextImpl.doLookup(CNContextImpl.java:1445)
     at com.ibm.ejs.ns.jndi.CNContextImpl.lookup(CNContextImpl.java:1129)
     at com.ibm.ws.naming.util.WsnInitCtx.lookup(WsnInitCtx.java:128)
     at javax.naming.InitialContext.lookup(InitialContext.java:359)Is there any difference in creating inital context and data source between 4.0 and 5.0 servers.
Any help on this please.
Thanks

This did not work dear. I assume when you say [Add ur datasource], you mean the name of the datasource, and I did as you told. I was wondering though that I have an independent java class which try to get data source from WSAD server, then how does web.xml help, may be I am not understanding the connection here.
Just to let you know, that same java class gets the datasource from 4.0 test server. I am running both servers now i.e. 4.0 test and 5.0 test server on different ports, and only data source from 4.0 workd good. Do you have any other solution, which I can try.
Is there any difference the way data source is accessed between 4.0 and 5.0 versions.
Thanks in advance.
Open web.xml, There will reference tab,, then take
Resource, Add ur datasourse on where the Cursor points
and then JNDI Name.
U need to restart ..
