[jetty-users] Jetty-8.1.1 - JNDI DB Resource not working with jetty-env.

[Jamie Maher <jamie.maher@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi there,

 New Jetty user here and I'm having a problem with Jetty not being able
to find my JNDI pooled database connection
when it is configured in WEB-INF/jetty-env.xml  

I get an exception in Jetty-8.1.1-v20120215:

javax.naming.NameNotFoundException; remaining name 'env/jdbc/MyDB'

(Note: JNDI does work if I change the name to jetty-web.xml and specify
the the full name of "java:comp/env/jdbc/MyDB" in the Resource)

Can anyone shed any light or point out what I'm doing wrong, or is
jetty-env.xml not supported anymore in 8.1.1?
I've looked through the Eclipse Wiki and can't seem to figure out what's
going wrong.

See below for my setup..

Thanks,
Jamie
