How do I configure IBM IMS connector in JBoss

Question

I have the IMS Connector RAR file. Placed it inside JBOSS_INSTALL/server/default/deploy directory. Created a ims-ds.xml file and also placed in the same location. It appears as if it is deploying with this message:

21:40:02,800 INFO [RARDeployment] Required license terms exist, view META-INF/ra.xml in .../deploy/ims225Connector.rar/

But then it gives the following error:

--- MBEANS THAT ARE THE ROOT CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM --- ObjectName: jboss.web.deployment:war=MHAccountDetailsAXIS.war,id=258164183 State: FAILED Reason: org.jboss.deployment.DeploymentException: Error during deploy; - nested throwable: (javax.naming.NamingException: resource-ref: eis/IMSCZ has no valid JNDI binding. Check the jboss-web/resource-ref.)

ObjectName: jboss.jca:service=RARDeployment,name=IMS Connector for Java State: NOTYETINSTALLED Depends On Me: jboss.jca:service=NoTxDS,name=eis/IMSCZ

Answer 1

Was able to proceed further after correcting the IMS-ds.xml file. Next I got: Unable to invoke setter method 'public void com.ibm.connector2.ims.ico.IMSManagedConnectionFactory.setMFSXMIRepositoryID(java.lang.String)' on object 'com.ibm.connector2.ims.ico.IMSManagedConnectionFactory@0'; - nested throwable: (java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org.eclipse.emf.ecore.resource.ResourceSet)

Next I download the eclipse jar files:org.eclipse.emf.common_2.4.0.v200808251517.jar and org.eclipse.emf.ecore_2.4.1.v200808251517.jar and place in the same location as the IMS RAR and get past that error.

I see the JNDI being established: 12:02:28,082 INFO [ConnectionFactoryBindingService] Bound ConnectionManager 'jboss.jca:service=ConnectionFactoryBinding,name=eis/IMSCZ' to JNDI name 'java:eis/IMSCZ'

But then I get this error: 12:02:28,941 WARN [ServiceController] Problem starting service jboss.web.deployment:war=MHAccountDetailsAXIS.war,id=1972990498 org.jboss.deployment.DeploymentException: Error during deploy; - nested throwable: (javax.naming.NamingException: resource-ref: eis/IMSCZ has no valid JNDI binding. Check the jboss-web/resource-ref.)

What else should I define to get this going?

Answer 2

Added jboss-web.xml that provides a mapping between JNDI and resource-ref name and finally got it going.
