java.lang.IllegalStateException: EJBCLIENT000025: No EJB receiver available with jndi.properties

[rzvikas]

I am on JBOSS 7.2.0.Final

I am trying to use jndi.properties instead of jboss-ejb-client.properties, but when I try to make a call to the remote method I get following exception :

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

jndi.properties :

Can I replace jboss-ejb-client.properties with jndi.properties ?

[jaikiran]

jboss-ejb-client.properties and jndi.properties are meant for two different things and aren't meant to replace one another.

[rzvikas]

ok, Can I use just use jndi.properties to make connection from client to server without jboss-ejb-client.properties with JBOSS 7.2.0.Final ?

jndi.properties :

java.naming.factory.initial=org.jboss.naming.remote.client.InitialContextFactory

java.naming.factory.url.pkgs=org.jboss.ejb.client.naming

java.naming.provider.url=remote://localhost:4547

java.naming.security.principal=admin1

java.naming.security.credentials=sample!23

See this https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/AS71/Remote+EJB+invocations+via+JNDI+-+EJB+client+API+or+remote-naming+project. It explains what can be done using EJB client API and what can be done using remote naming

im getting the same issue as you on this

[ramsrib]

I faced the same issue & tried all the possibilities to fix this. 

At last, I found the solution :

Eariliear, I used this jar files to resolve dependencies which acutal caused the failure.

jboss-ejb-client-1.0.5.Final.jar

jboss-marshalling-1.3.11.GA.jar

jboss-remoting-3.2.3.GA.jar
xnio-api-3.0.3.GA.jar

xnio-nio-3.0.3.GA.jar

jboss-sasl-1.0.0.Final.jar

Now, I removed all the above jar from library & just added this following jar alone which fixed the issue.

jboss/bin/client/jboss-client.jar

This jboss-client.jar contains the classes required for remote JMS and EJB usage, and consists of the following shaded artifacts:

org.jboss.spec.javax.jms:jboss-jms-api_1.1_spec

org.jboss.spec.javax.transaction:jboss-transaction-api_1.1_spec

org.jboss.spec.javax.ejb:jboss-ejb-api_3.1_spec

org.jboss:jboss-remote-naming

org.jboss.logging:jboss-logging

org.jboss.marshalling:jboss-marshalling

org.jboss.marshalling:jboss-marshalling-river

org.jboss.remoting3:jboss-remoting

org.jboss.remoting3:remoting-jmx

org.jboss.sasl:jboss-sasl

org.jboss.xnio:xnio-api

org.jboss.xnio:xnio-nio

org.jboss.netty:netty

org.hornetq:hornetq-core-client

org.hornetq:hornetq-jms-client

[javafoot]

Please try this property:

jndiProps.put("jboss.naming.client.ejb.context", true);// MUST have.

No, you can't invoke EJB withoutjboss-ejb-client.properties.

jboss-ejb-client.properties is required in JBoss AS 7 and WildFly AS.

And don't forget to place jboss-ejb-client.properties under war/WEB-INF/ or ear/META-INF/.
