Hi,

While accessing the EJB3.0 stateless session bean from my client program, I get the following exception,

This looks familiar, I think I ran into it at some point, but don't recall exactly what was wrong.

Make sure your client is doing a JNDI lookup on the remote interface class name, not the local interface or the bean itself. Also, make sure you are casting the result of the JNDI lookup to the remote interface, not anything else.

If that doesn't work, take a closer look at what exactly $Proxy120 is, find out what interfaces it implements. (Put in some debug log statements, or use a debugger)

For more help, we probably need to see some of the code around your UserAction.java line 357.
