JBoss EAP 6 remote JNDI client throws - javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: test -- service jboss.naming.context.java.jboss.exported.test

Issue

• We are getting this exception in our remote JNDI client trying to lookup the JNDI name 'test':

javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: test -- service jboss.naming.context.java.jboss.exported.test

Our client code looks like this:

    Hashtable<String, Object> p = new Hashtable<String, Object>();
    p.put(InitialContext.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "org.jboss.naming.remote.client.InitialContextFactory");
    p.put(InitialContext.PROVIDER_URL, "remote://localhost:4447");
    p.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL,"jndiuser"); // add this user as ApplicationRealm user added via script add-user.sh
    p.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "redhat");
    Context ctx = new InitialContext(p);
    String testValue = ctx.lookup("test");
