SocketTimeoutException when trying to do a lookup on another

[markricard]

When running JBoss on the same computer I run my test program, I am able to successfully do a lookup on a session bean.

When I move that project over to another computer running jboss, I am unable to do the lookup and always get a socket timeout exception.

I am able to test jsp creation via the browser from my pc to that server, so I know that at least the web server part is running and the server's ip address is correct.

I have not modified any of the jnp settings inside jboss configuration files so it still points at 1099.

What would cause the lookup to be successful on my local machine when running JBoss and having it fail with a timeout when I move it to another machine? ALL of the ip's have been changed to point to the new server in the client call.

Everything was exactly the same , even the base JBoss version. What was different was the jbossall-client.jar. Once those were in sync, it worked. Problem resolved.

When discussing an exception you are getting can you please post the exception along with it's stack trace and message, it makes it a lot easier for others to see what is going on.

Is there any chance that the server machine is running Linux? If so does the /etc/hosts file contain IP address to host name mapping?

Please read my response right after my posting. "Problem resolved". Thank you anyway.
