    HelloWorld Example : Newbie need help

    smallfatcat

      Hi there,

      I am newbie in JBoss and EJB. I have tried the following simple HelloWorld EJB on my machine. However, I get the following error when I try to run it. I apolgies for the pasting of error code here, I really need some guidance. Could someone tell me where did I go wrong and where should I change? Sorry I wanted to attach my source code
      but apparently the attachment function does not work.

      Thank you very much

      1. Test 1 (Method from MasteringEJB2)
      -------------------------------------

      This is the error when i used the following for my client code.
      ==> Properties prop = System.getProperties();

      2. Test 2 (Method from JBoss 3 Step by Step)
      --------------------------------------------
      This is the error when i used the following for my client code.
      ==> Hashtable prop = new Hashtable();
      ==> prop.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory");
      ==> prop.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "localhost:1099");
      ==> prop.put("java.naming.factory.url.pkgs", "org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces");

      import javax.naming.Context;
      import javax.naming.InitialContext;
      import java.util.Hashtable;

      prop.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "localhost:1099");
      prop.put("java.naming.factory.url.pkgs", "org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces");

      try
      {
      Context ctx = new InitialContext(prop);
      Object obj = ctx.lookup("HelloWorld");
      HelloWorldHome home = (HelloWorldHome) javax.rmi.PortableRemoteObject.narrow(obj, HelloWorldHome.class);
      HelloWorld helloWorld = home.create();
      System.out.println(helloWorld.hello());
      helloWorld.remove();
      }
      catch(Exception e)
      {
      e.printStackTrace();
      }
      }
      }

          context properties should be like this:

          HashTable prop = new HashTable();
          prop.put ("java.naming.factory.url.pkgs","org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces");
          prop.put ("java.naming.provider.url","jnp://localhost:1099");
          prop.put ("java.naming.factory.initial","org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory");

            Hi sgturner,

            I have changed the code you given above. However it
            still gives the same error message as the one in
            Test 2. Any other hints?

            Sincere thanks.

              hi,

              couldn't you post the rest of the code (along with the descriptors)?

                  Hi Weber,

                  this are the source file. Please help a new bie.

                  Could you kindly advise me also what should the setting be for the workers.properties file for the following lines
                  worker.ajp12.host=<<YOUR SERVERS IP ADDRESS >>
                  worker.ajp13.host=<<YOUR SERVERS IP ADDRESS >>

                  If I am running Tomcat/JBoss/Apache all on the same machine. My machine name is myComp.Is it
                  worker.ajp12.host=myComp
                  worker.ajp13.host=myComp
                  I am confused about my server ip since I am running on my
                  machine only.

                  Thanks a lot. Really appreciate your help.

                    hi again Paul (that is your name, right?),

                    i know what's going on. I've downloaded your code and its running smoothly here. The problem is in your classpath. It *must* include some of the client jars which come with the distribution. Those jars contain, for example, the org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory class your trying to use. For such a simple test as this one, it wouldn't be necessary to include all the client jars in the class path (as a matter of fact, i think the minimum set would only include: jboss-common-client.jar, jnp-client.jar, jboss-client.jar, jbosssx-client.jar and possibly log4j.jar)

                    I don't know if your using Linux, but in case you are, you could try do do the following in the bash prompt (that's what i did):

                    $ cd $JBOSS_HOME/lib; for FILE in *.jar; do export \ CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:`pwd`/$FILE; done; cd -

                    It was enough for me to make it work here.

                    PS: regarding the doubt about the workers.properties file, i couldn't quite understand what is the problem.

                    Hope it helps,
                    Weber.

                      Thanks Weber,

                      That indeed was my error. Couldnt' express how
                      happy I was to see my first hello world example
                      to work!

                      See you
                      Paul

                        Hi everyone

                        I'm also a new bie and I'm trying to deploy a simple EJB. I've installed jboss-3.0.4_tomcat-4.1.12. I've run it and it is OK. Then, I've develop my EJB ; I've also got my 3 classes and my jar file. But how can I deploy it ? I mean, where should I put all my files to make it run on JBOss ?
                        Same question for my Client file ?

                        Thanks for your help.

                          deploy directory of jboss server.

                          in directory
                          $JBOSS_HOME/server
                          there are three (distribution) subdirectories
                          minimal
                          all
                          default

                          each one of them will have deploy directory. Just copy your ejb-jar or war or ear or sar files over there and Jboss will deploy them autmagically.

                            I meant in one of the default/all/minimal depending on which config you are running.

                            If you run Jboss with the command run.sh/run.bat
                            default config is used. otherwise whatever you specified in -c option for the above command is your current config.
