    Why do I get a ClassCastException when I use narrow() in

      This code works in a non-cluster environment, but when I switch to HA-JNDI. I am getting a ClassCastException error on the server. I am using the "all" configuration. Is there something else that I have to do? I am getting this with our Servlets, from our swing Console application the clustering is working fine. Does the servlets need the jboss-all.jar? Thanks in advance.

      Error on server:

      Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException

          Getting a ClassCastException trying to access our Stateless Session Beans from within Servlet

          We changed the ports for HA JNDI to the desired port deploy/cluster-service.xml and the JNDI to 1100 jboss-service.xml


          <!-- The listening port for the bootstrap JNP service. Set this to -1
          to run the NamingService without the JNP invoker listening port.
          -->
          1100

          deploy/cluster-service.xml


          jboss:service=DefaultPartition
          <!-- Name of the partition to which the service is linked -->
          MetamatrixPartition
          <!-- bind address of HA JNDI RMI endpoint -->
          ${jboss.bind.address}
          <!-- RmiPort to be used by the HA-JNDI service
          once bound. 0 => auto. -->
          0
          <!-- Port on which the HA-JNDI stub is made available -->
          41484

          Is this the correct configuration for HA JNDI?

              Just noticed that cluster-service.xml has a variable. Should I have 0.0.0.0 or the IP of my machine?


              <attribute name="BindAddress">${jboss.bind.address}</attribute>
