ejb-ref issues after Hot Deployment

[rboston]

I've got a session bean trying to do a lookup of another session bean, very straightforward stuff.
The first time I start JBOSS things work well.

After any hot deployment of my jar files, something is messed up. I continually receive a NullPointerException for what previously worked.
You can't get much simpler than this:
ctx = new InitialContext();
Object obj = ctx.lookup("java:comp/env/ejb/NextBean");
BeanHome mHome = (BeanHome) PortableRemoteObject.narrow(obj, BeanHome.class);

It's actually happening within the narrow method call.

HAS ANYONE SEEN THIS BEFORE OR KNOWS OF THE FIX?

I'm using 3.0 Beta-2, JDK 1.4.

Thanks

Exact same issue. Anyone have a resolution?

Hmmm. One difference that I see between what you do and what I have been doing is that I don't do a narrow. Just cast it.

BeanHome home = (BeanHome)ctx.lookup ("blah blah");
