Hi,

Getting "Context initialization failed" Error while starting jboss-eap-5.1. Same code and configurations are working fine in jboss-5.1.0.GA.  jboss-5.1.0.GA is installed on my local windows pc and jboss-eap-5.1 is installed on Linux Integration server. Even after this error, application is up and running able to communicate with database. But I am getting this error while starting the jboss-eap-5.1. Could you please help me what could be the problem. Here is the Error from server.log.

ERROR [org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoader] Context initialization failed

org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'sessionFactory' defined in class path resource [conf/config-hibernate-dao.xml]: Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is org.springframework.jndi.JndiLookupFailureException: JndiObjectTargetSource failed to obtain new target object; nested exception is javax.naming.NamingException: Could not dereference object [Root exception is javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: jdbc not bound]
