No JNDI resources found after automatic publish with Tomcat 7.0.27 and Atomikos 3.7.1

Question

I am building a web application using Spring, Tomcat 7.0.27 and Atomikos 3.7.1. I followed the integration guidelines from Atomikos: Tomcat7Integration35. Everything works except two listeners which don't exist anymore in Tomcat 7.0.27. So I did not include these two listeners in my server.xml file.

<Listener className="org.apache.catalina.mbeans.ServerLifecycleListener" />

<Listener className="org.apache.catalina.storeconfig.StoreConfigLifecycleListener"/>

Everything works when I start Tomcat for the first time. When I do some code changes and Tomcat try to publish the application automatically, then none of the JNDI resources which were defined in context.xml are found (Exception: javax.naming.NameNotFoundException). I need to stop the server and start it again. By doing this, the application is published successfully.

Has anyone else experienced this? I would appreciate if you could give me any pointers on this.
