Unable to lookup JNDI name in Weblogic 12c

Question

While deploying a webapp on weblogic I am encountering the below error:

Can someone please let me know what are the ways to debug this.

Answer 1

Did you take look at JNDI Tree in Admin Console?

On Weblogic12c, I'm pretty sure that the JNDI URL is jdbc/PassmarkToolDB and not java:comp/env/jdbc/PassmarkToolDB
