When I installed jms (j2ee1.3) my lookups doesn't work anymore...

Question

Hi. I was using j2se 1.3 and performed some lookups on objects from an Oracle 8.1.7.
Then, in order to use jms, I installed j2ee 1.3 and j2se 1.3.1. Now my lookups doesn't work anymore, but my lookups on jms objects (por example Queue or QueueConnectionFactory) does work fine. This is the code that produces the error, and the error:
****** CODE *************
String serviceURL = "sess_iiop://desarrollo:2482:SCANALES";
String objectName = "/test/sInformacionSalida";
ServicioInformacionSalida sis = null;
Hashtable env = new Hashtable ();
env.put (Context.URL_PKG_PREFIXES, "oracle.aurora.jndi:com.sun.enterprise.naming");
env.put (Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, "USER");
env.put (Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "USER");
env.put (Context.SECURITY_AUTHENTICATION, ServiceCtx.NON_SSL_LOGIN);
InitialContext ic = null;
try {
ic = new InitialContext(env);
} catch (NamingException nE) {}
System.out.println("ASIF: Lookup de servicio de salida de informacion de formateo...");
try {
           sis = (ServicioInformacionSalida)ic.lookup(serviceURL + objectName);
} catch(NamingException nE) {
  System.out.println("ASIF: Error en el lookup: " + nE.getExplanation());
  System.out.println("ASIF: " + nE.toString());
  nE.printStackTrace();
  System.exit(-1);

Last, from the %J2EE_HOME%\lib\classes\jndi.properties:
java.naming.factory.initial=com.sun.enterprise.naming.SerialInitContextFactory
java.naming.factory.url.pkgs=com.sun.enterprise.naming
The weird thing is that when I remove %J2EE_HOME%\lib\j2ee.jar from the classpath, the lookup works fine again but, of course, I can't use the jms classes.
From the "Unknown service" message, I presume that the problem is related to the service provider and/or something with the environment properties.
PLEASE ANY HELP!!
Thanks.

This seems weird enough for bringing to the attention of the JNDI technical team.
If you have not already done so, you might want to send this message directly to them at [email protected]
There seems to be some incompatibility between Oracle classes and J2EE 1.3 classes. As you have pointed out, in some service provider classe(s).
