[OFBiz] Users - OfBiz Startup: Unable to Bind UserTransaction...to JNDI

[Kyle Tippetts]

Yep. Maybe someone could explain why hostnames in the hosts file would
make a difference (I'm still a neophyte in Linux/Unix, and of course
this is a bit OT)...

Here was the first line in my hosts file:

127.0.0.1    localhost.localdomain    jediknight2

Here's what I changed it to and then was able to successfully start
ofbiz:

127.0.0.1    localhost   jediknight2   localhost.localdomain

Just thought I'd follow up on what I found out.
