Weblogic cluster URL not working

[naor]

Hi

we have the following definition for a jndiTemplate:

<!-- remote access to weblogic JNDI -->
    <bean id="jndiTemplate" class="org.springframework.jndi.JndiTemplate">
        <property name="environment">
            <props>
                <prop key="java.naming.factory.initial">weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory</prop>
                <prop key="java.naming.provider.url">t3&#58;//10.23.224.22,10.23.224.23&#58;7007</prop>
                <prop key="java.naming.security.principal"></prop>
                <prop key="java.naming.security.credentials"></prop> 
            </props>
        </property>
    </bean>

this template is injected to an EJB:

<bean id="AlertServiceEJB" class="org.springframework.ejb.access.SimpleRemoteStatelessSessionProxyFactoryBean">
        <property name="jndiName" value="AlertServiceWrapper"/>
        <property name="businessInterface" value="com.itp.gt.alert.ejb.AlertServiceWrapper"/>
        <property name="jndiTemplate" ref="jndiTemplate"/>
    </bean>

The application code is obtaining a reference to the AlertServiceEJB and makes a method call.

The problem we get is that we do not see the bean call being executed at all.

When we change the URL from the cluster address: t3://10.23.224.22,10.23.224.23:7007

to a url for a single server: t3://10.23.224.23:7007

the EJB call gets executed.


Does anyone have an idea what might be wrong?

Here is what we see in the log when we use the single server URL:

Oct-04-2005 23:35:32 DEBUG (AbstractRemoteSlsbInvokerInterceptor.java:209) - Obtained reference to remote EJB: ClusterableRemoteRef(7641916881034384007S:10.23.224.23:[7007,7007,-1,-1,7007,-1,-1,0,0]:geotrades:gtserver2 [-7447132962224709846S:10.23.224.22:[7007,7007,-1,-1,7007,-1,-1,0,0]:geotrades:gtserver1/293, 7641916881034384007S:10.23.224.23:[7007,7007,-1,-1,7007,-1,-1,0,0]:geotrades:gtserver2/293])/293

with the cluster URL we do not see ANY log for the bean call

Afaik,

t3://10.23.224.22,10.23.224.23:7007

is not a valid url nor a list of valid urls.

You may want to try

 t3://10.23.224.22:7007,t3://10.23.224.23:7007

Thanks for the reply,

We use the same jndiTemplate to publish an object in the cluster JNDI and this call actually requires the cluster url in the form we use. (this is how it is specified in weblogic's docs)
using a single server causes weblogic to complain that we publish JNDI in a non-clustered way to the cluster.

should we use separate and use two differently configured instances of jndiTemplate?

Does Weblogic expect to be using it's own InitialContext? Like isn't there a WLInitialContext or something that is maybe setup to parse that url differently?

Afaik, is not a valid url nor a list of valid urls.
You may want to try

 t3://10.23.224.22:7007,t3://10.23.224.23:7007

It is valid for WebLogic's own JNDI provider. See http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs81/jndi/jndi.html#467605

Yes, WL does use its own InitialContext.
Have a look at the original post. It is declared in the "java.naming.factory.initial" property of the JndiTemplate.

t3://10.23.224.22:7007,10.23.224.23:7007 will do

I tested this config, based on the weblogic example
file:///C:/Oracle/Middleware/wlserver_10.3/samples/server/examples/src/examples/spring/sconfig/instructions.html?skipReload=true

Client
<bean id="helloWorldService" class="org.springframework.remoting.rmi.JndiRmiPro xyFactoryBean">

<property name="serviceInterface" value="simple.SayHello" />

<property name="jndiEnvironment">
