Jboss7 : Error trying to resolve JNDI name "java:/XAConnectionFactory" : javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: XAConnectionFactory - jboss

Question

I was upgrading ATG application from 10.x to 11.x. I also upgraded jboss-eap from 5.1 to 7.2 I have faced various JBoss issues and many of them were fixed.
As of now we are getting the following error while starting the ATG fulfillment server and it seems to be JBoss JMS issue.
07:56:43,346 ERROR [nucleusNamespace.atg.dynamo.messaging.MessagingManager] (ServerService Thread Pool -- 81) PatchBay failed to startup properly : a Scheduler job will be registered to continue trying to bring PatchBay up : note this may result in further errors: atg.nucleus.ServiceException: An error occurred trying to resolve JNDI name "java:/XAConnectionFactory" for the "xa-topic-connection-factory-name" in provider "Hornet" in definition file "/atg/dynamo/messaging/dynamoMessagingSystem.xml": javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: XAConnectionFactory -- service jboss.naming.context.java.XAConnectionFactory

In Jboss 5, there were following configuration files:

In Jboss 7.2 we have the following message config in standalone.xml file:

I'm new to both jboss and ATG, Could anyone help me to resolve the issue ?

Answer 1

java:/XAConnectionFactory is not defined in WildFly. You need to configure WildFly to properly create and expose those connection factories like this:
<pooled-connection-factory name="activemq-ra" entries="java:/JmsXA java:jboss/DefaultJMSConnectionFactory java:/XAConnectionFactory" connectors="in-vm" transaction="xa"/>
Please note also that you are now on Apache ActiveMQ Artemis and no longer on HornetQ
