    mac2009

      Hi all,

      Getting a ClassCastException when I deploy th ear.
      (on JBoss 4.0.3.SP1 everything is fine)

      StackTrace:

          Can you please provide more details about your application? Is it a EJB3 application or is it EJB2.x? Also can you post the logs that you see on the console? What type of beans does the xyz-ejb.jar contain? If there are any ejb-jar.xml or jboss.xml associated, please post those too.

          While posting logs or xml content or code, please remember to wrap it in a code block by using the Code button in the message editor window. Please use the Preview button to ensure that your post is correctly formatted.

            Maybe jboss.xml and jbosscmp-jdbc.xml have to be changed?
            Any important changes between 4.0.3 and 5.0.1?
            Can't find an example in the docs..

            Its a EJB2.x application only.
            Just stateless session beans and entity beans (cmp).

              Are you sure the Ereignis_basel ejb name of the entity bean in jboss.xml matches a entity bean in the ejb-jar.xml? Can you please post the exact contents of that ejb-jar.xml file?

                The names matches.
                Otherwise I would have problems with 4.0.3, or?

                  Hi again,

                  any ideas?

                  Cheers

                    Its a EJB2.x application only.


                    jboss.xml:


                    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
                    <!DOCTYPE jboss PUBLIC
                     "-//JBoss//DTD JBOSS 5.0//EN"
                     "http://www.jboss.org/j2ee/dtd/jboss_5_0.dtd">
                    <jboss>
                    
                     <enterprise-beans>
                    ...
                    


                    See if changing the dtd to the following, helps:

                    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
                    <!DOCTYPE jboss PUBLIC
                     "-//JBoss//DTD JBOSS 4.0//EN"
                     "http://www.jboss.org/j2ee/dtd/jboss_4_0.dtd">
                    <jboss>
                     <enterprise-beans>
                    ...

                      Well, thats the original version (with dtd 4.0).
                      I just tried with dtd 5.0 as well.
                      That doesn't change anything...or at least this exception.

                        Just to be correct the exception occurs on server startup....of course.

                          Carsten,

                          From what you have shown so far, i don't see any obvious reasons why you are running into this problem. Could you try to reproduce this with a smaller application (with one EJB2.x entity bean and one EJB2.x session bean)?
