JBoss and client on different hosts -> ClassCastException

[akrobaten]

Hi.

I want to move the client I made on a different host than the one JBoss is running on. Only problem is when i do this i get the following exception(first few lines of the stackTrace()):

java.lang.ClassCastException at com.sun.corba.se.impl.javax.rmi.PortableRemoteObject.narrow(Unknown Source) at javax.rmi.PortableRemoteObject.narrow(Unknown Source)
at oppstart.logon.actionPerformed(logon.java:180)

I've modified the jndi.properties file to match the server-url and all necessary jar-files are in classpath(i think) - client.jar, jnp-client.jar and jbossall-client.jar.

Here's the part of code where I get the exception. It jumps out at the home=... line. :

LoginHome home=null;
Login rem=null;
try {
Context context = new InitialContext();
Object ref = context.lookup("LoginBean");
home = (LoginHome) PortableRemoteObject.narrow(ref, LoginHome.class);
}
catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}

Anyone know what's wrong?

The object returned by lookup method seems not to be of type LoginHome.
Print out ref.getClass().getName() to see what's the class name.

Is LoginHome a remote home interface ?
With a client app outside of the server app's jboss jvm you can only use the RemoteHome interfaces.

Thanks for your reply and suggestions.
Yes, LoginHome is RemoteHome interface.
I got it to work now.

Problem was that I used the wrong packagename :)
