# Remove JNDI resource references in JBoss Because JBoss has its own mechanism for referencing JNDI data sources, the `resource-references` in the `web.xml` file located in the `pentaho.war` are not needed. You must remove these `resource-references` for the Pentaho Server to operate properly. 1. Navigate to the `pentaho/server/pentao-server/*your jboss installation directory*/standalone/deployments` directory. 2. Use a ZIP extraction utility (such as 7-Zip, WinZip, or Archive) to view the contents of the `pentaho.war` file. Do not unzip or extract the contents of the file. 3. Navigate to the `WEB-INF` directory and open the `web.xml` file in a text editor. 4. Delete all `` tagged entries including everything between the `` and `` tags. 5. Save and close the file. 6. The ZIP extraction utility that you used might show a prompt that asks whether you would like to update the file in the `pentaho.war` archive. If this prompt appears, confirm that you would like to update the file. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
