JndiException when using Hibernate 4.0 with Tomcat 7 when using persistence.xml

I'm using Hibernate 4.0 with a JPA persistence.xml file on Tomcat 7. No Struts, just straight Hibernate with some Jersey services. Here is the exception I'm running into:

Caused by: org.hibernate.service.jndi.JndiException: Unable to lookup JNDI name [jdbc/MyDB]

I see the note about jbc is not bound in this context, but I'm confused as how this is happening. I'm deploying my context in an app-specific context.xml, below:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<Context>
    <Resource name="jdbc/MyDB" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource"
              maxActive="100" maxIdle="30" maxWait="10000"
              username="..." password="..." driverClassName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"
              url="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/mydb"/>
</Context>

And my persistence.xml file looks like:

<persistence xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence"
             xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
             xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/persistence_2_0.xsd"
             version="2.0">

    <persistence-unit name="com.example.mysql" transaction-type="RESOURCE_LOCAL">
        <provider>org.hibernate.ejb.HibernatePersistence</provider>
        <non-jta-data-source>jdbc/MyDB</non-jta-data-source>
        <class>...</class>
        <properties>
            <property name="hibernate.connection.datasource" value="jdbc/MyDB"/>
            <property name="hibernate.dialect" value="org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect"/>
            <property name="hibernate.id.new_generator_mappings" value ="true"/>
        </properties>
    </persistence-unit>
</persistence>

Finally, my web.xml file has the resource defined as so:

<!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC
 "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
 "http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd" >

<web-app>
    <display-name>My Web Application</display-name>
    <resource-ref>
        <description>DB Connection</description>
        <res-ref-name>jdbc/MyDB</res-ref-name>
        <res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
        <res-auth>Container</res-auth>
    </resource-ref>
...
</web-app>

As for my layout, here is how my war file is structured:

app.war
    + META-INF
        - context.xml
    + WEB-INF
        + classes
            + META-INF
                - persistence.xml
        + lib
        - web.xml

A few minor notes:

  • Using a global context versus an application-specific context makes no difference.
  • The code trying to instantiate an EntityManager instance is in a JAR file in the lib directory (part of a multi-project Maven build), but the persistence XML is in the main web app as outlined above.
  • I can see the JNDI datasource in Tomcat and I can query it using psi-probe, i.e. I can access the connection information and successfully execute SQL queries against the data source.

Since you use a portable resource with , you should call your JNDI using "java:comp/env/your_resource", like java:comp/env/jdbc/MyDB
