    Issues in Ejb 3.0 Deployment

      Hi All,

      I am newbie to Ejb 3.0. I am facing a problem while deploying an Ejb jar .

      Environment being used.

      eclispe ( using jboss tools plugins ) and jboss 4.2.2. GA

      The problem i am facing is that while deploying the ejb jar, I am getting this exception .


      java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Unexpected error during load of: com.demo.hello.HelloBeanBean, msg=Bad version number in .class file
      at org.jboss.mx.loading.RepositoryClassLoader.loadClassImpl(RepositoryClassLoader.java:560)
      at org.jboss.mx.loading.RepositoryClassLoader.loadClass(RepositoryClassLoader.java:415)
      at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source)

      at org.jboss.ejb3.Ejb3Deployment.deployElement(Ejb3Deployment.java:442)
      ...

      There is only one problem in it. I have only jvm installed in my system.
      Java 1.5.0_07.

      How should i have to go about this problem. I am using eclipse to run the server.

      Looking forward for your help.
      Thanks in advance

          You probably compiled it with a higher version of JDK and are using JBoss with a lower version of Java.

          What do the following commands output?

          echo %JAVA_HOME%


          java -version


          Also ensure that your Eclipse is not pointing to some other JDK version for compiling.

            Hi Kiran,

            Thanks for the quick response.
            As i said earlier, I have only one jdk in my system. 1.5.0._07


            C:\>echo %JAVA_HOME%
            C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_07


            C:\>java -version
            java version "1.5.0_07"
            Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_07-b03)
            Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_07-b03, mixed mode, sharing)


            Eclipse also points to the same.

            More over I am getting this exception only during ejb deployment. When i remove this ejb.jar from the ear, The other war files are properly deployed and functioning as well.

            When i try to deploy a ejb jar ( both via an ear or separately i am getting this problem ).

            I am kind of stuck over here.

            Thnx
            Vasu

              Two things to try.

              In Eclipse, In the Package Explorer, when you expand your project there should be an entry for "JRE System Library" with a version in brackets behind it. What is that version?

              From a command prompt, run:

              %java_home%\bin\javap -verbose -classpath xxx com.demo.hello.HelloBeanBean

              where xxx is the base directory into which Eclipse is compiling the classes. Post the output.

                Appologies for the delayed reply.

                I checked it. It is the same version 1.5.0_07


                From a command prompt, run:

                %java_home%\bin\javap -verbose -classpath xxx com.demo.hello.HelloBeanBean

                where xxx is the base directory into which Eclipse is compiling the classes. Post the output.


                Here is the output

                  minor version: 0
                  major version: 50


                  This indicates that the file was compiled using Java6. Somewhere in Eclipse, JDK 6 is being used.

                  Try this - In Eclipse, Project -> Properties -> Java Compiler, set the "Generated .class files compatibility" to 5.0. Then rebuild your project class files.

                    Bingo .. You guys were right ....
                    java compiler setting was pointing to jdk 6.0 .. ( but i dont have it in my system )..
                    now i am able to deploy my app..

                    Thanks to both of you guys Kiran and Peter for your help.
