Running document example application on JBoss3.0.0RC1

[moraleslos]

Hi,

I downloaded the documentation example source code and tried to run the first example (Interest EJB) with JBoss 3.0.0RC1 but encountered a small problem. When trying to run the client application to test if the Interest EJB works using the ant script, I keep getting this error:

For some reason, the Interest EJBs were not recognized by JBoss. I tried restarting the container and redeploying but to no avail. I checked the interest.jar file to make sure both ejb-jar.xml and jboss.xml were properly placed and had the correct contents (in this case, jboss.xml had <jndi-name>interest/Interest</jndi-name> and in which the client app referred to). But for some reason, I keep getting the same error.

Does anyone know what might be the problem or how to investigate an issue like this? All of the source code is straight from the download and it compiles via ant just fine.

thanks

here's an update

I switched containers (from Jboss 3.0.0RC1 to 2.4.5.RC1) and the example application worked just fine. I can even see the console for 2.4.5.RC1 display the deployer info. So I don't know if i need to do something extra for 3.0.0RC1 in order to deploy or something else.

thanks.

I fixed the problem. the jar file should be in the directory jboss3.0.0RC1\server\default\deploy instead of jboss3.0.0RC1\deploy.

However, I encountered a problem running the client app. Its giving me:

I don't know why a NoClassDefFoundError: org/jboss/logging/Logger exception occured since its not defined anywhere in the code. Could it be that JBoss3.0.0RC1 uses a different directory for logging than its 2.x predecessors?

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!

You'll find the class in jboss-common-client.jar

Hi Adrian,

Thanks for the tip. The jar was in JBoss3.0.0RC1\client.

Now my stupid question is, what am I suppose to do with it? I tried copying it to the JBoss3.0.0RC1\lib and JBoss3.0.0RC1\server\default\deploy directory but I can't get the container to recognize this class.

never mind about previous post... I figured it out. I changed the build script to look for jboss-common-client.jar and log4j.jar in the client directories and it worked.

I guess the 2.x versions already included them in jboss-client.jar so I did not need to worry about them.
