Hi all, I'm using Birt 2.3 runtime deployed to jboss5.1. My reports and library are located separately from the engine. I want to use JNDI for the DS connection, but it doesn't work, it's using JDBC and I quickly hit the wall of my experience with Birt. The Birt logs display this error:<br />
<pre class='_prettyXprint _lang-auto _linenums:0'>

<br />
what jndi.properties file? Is there supposed to be one? If so how should it be configured? Is there a way to configure this to use a -ds.xml file?<br />
Anyway, I dropped the jboss jndi.properties file in the drivers directory, I'm not sure how to configure it so I just used what was already in it:<br />
<pre class='_prettyXprint _lang-auto _linenums:0'>java.naming.factory.initial=org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory
java.naming.factory.url.pkgs=org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces
</pre> <br />
Now I get:<br />

Is there something else I'm missing?<br />
Thanx in advance
