Hi, I have tried out the example available at thread 4212 using JBOSS 4.2.2 GA as webserver and MyEclipse as IDE. I got the following error. Can you please guide me on this? Exception in thread "main" 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 at javax.naming.spi.NamingManager.getInitialContext(Unknown Source) at javax.naming.InitialContext.getDefaultInitCtx(Unknown Source) at javax.naming.InitialContext.getURLOrDefaultInitCtx(Unknown Source) at javax.naming.InitialContext.lookup(Unknown Source) at org.jboss.tutorial.stateless.client.Client.main(Client.java:15) Thanks Gowri
