Hi guys,
I am new to ejb and jboss.I am working with a session been.i Deployeed that been. but while compiling client I am facing follwing Exceptions.

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
javax/net/SocketFactory
at org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory.getInitialContext(NamingContextFactory.java:38)
at javax.naming.spi.NamingManager.getInitialContext(NamingManager.java:665)
at javax.naming.InitialContext.getDefaultInitCtx(InitialContext.java:246)
at javax.naming.InitialContext.init(InitialContext.java:222)
at javax.naming.InitialContext.(InitialContext.java:178)
at org.jboss.docs.interest.InterestClient.main(InterestClient.java:27)
Exception in thread "main"

my working environ ment is as follows
os:win2k
ejb Container:jboss-3.0.0_tomcat-4.0.3

I would be thankful to you if you coud give at least a generalised solution(i.e like what might be the reasons for this type of exceptions).

Thx

You need jnet.jar from ${jboss.home}/client
in your classpath.

hi warjort,

thanks for responding.jnet.jat is there in jboss.home/client and this directory is in class path.
