JNDI Exception on starting application in a cluster

[Louis Wevers]

Hi,

I've setup a cluster of two WAS 5.0 servers as described in this
document:
http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-ss4ip-was5clus/

Everything seems to be fine (the cluster starts and I can see the
information exchange between the server about updating the configuration
and everything) until the moment I try to start the Default Application.

If anyone has a suggestion on what I'm doing wrong it would be greatly
appriciated if you provide help. Below is the beginning of the error
message I get. (I can copy in the whole message if someone asks, but it
goes on for several pages).

Many thanks in advance,
Louis

I don't think this has anything to do with the cluster - but the
datasource definition for this sample datasource was defined only at the
server level and not at the cluster level.

Thanks,

From what I can find that could very well be the problem. However,
being a newbie at clustering, this generates another question: "How do I
define the datasource at cluster level?"

on the datasource page, delete the server and/or node name, and press
apply. The arrow will then point to the cluster. Define your datasource
then.
