javax.naming.NameNotFoundException When Looking Up a WLS JNDI Name (Doc ID 849448.1)

Last updated on FEBRUARY 13, 2024

Applies to:

Oracle Containers for J2EE - Version 10.1.3.3.0 and later
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

A J2EE application is deployed into 10.3.2 WebLogic Server (WLS). In order to access an EJB, from a JSP page of this application, a JNDI lookup is done with the 'mySampleEJB#sampleEjbProject.SessionEJB' name.

The same J2EE application is deployed into 10.1.3 OC4J successfully. However, when executing the JNDI lookup with mySampleEJB#sampleEjbProject.SessionEJB' name, it fails with the exception :

javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: mySampleEJB#sampleEjbProject.SessionEJB not found

The goal of this note is to show how to avoid this exception by having common code for both WLS and OC4J.
