Im using Jboss 4.2.1.GA and jdk 1.5.0_15.

Im trying to deploy two "applications" (EAR and SAR) in the same jboss. First of all, when i deploy this two apps in different jboss it work.

Ok. There is an ejb-jar module in EAR. In this module i deploy 3 ejbs 3.0, 2 stateless and 1 stateful.

@Stateful(name="MyService")
@Remote(IMyService.class)
public class IngestionService implements IMyService {
....
}

SAR project is a client of this stateful bean. the Jndi lookup code :

Properties prop = new Properties();
prop.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory");
 prop.setProperty(Context.URL_PKG_PREFIXES,"org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interface");
prop.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "jnp://localhost" + ":" + "1099");


InitialContext jndiContext = new InitialContext(prop);

IMyService ms = (IMyService)jndiContext.lookup("MYAPP/MyService/remote");

This lookup cause a classcast exception. Like this :

java.lang.ClassCastException: $Proxy80
 at schedule.TestScheduler.perform(TestScheduler.java:48)
 at org.jboss.varia.scheduler.Scheduler$Listener.handleNotification(Scheduler.java:1251)

 at java.util.TimerThread.mainLoop(Timer.java:512)
 at java.util.TimerThread.run(Timer.java:462)

In any other case i get a IMyService reference, but when the same lookup is done in a SAR i get this excepcion. The $Proxy80 is an instance of StatefulRemoteProxy and this proxy does not implement ejb remote interface.

The global JNDI namespace :

 +- MYAPP (class: org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContext)
 | +- AdminService (class: org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContext)
 | | +- local (proxy: $Proxy73 implements interface admin.IAdminService,interface org.jboss.ejb3.JBossProxy,interface javax.ejb.EJBLocalObject)
 | | +- remote (proxy: $Proxy71 implements interface admin.IAdminService,interface org.jboss.ejb3.JBossProxy,interface javax.ejb.EJBObject)
 | +- MyService (class: org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContext)
 | | +- remote (class: java.lang.Object)
 | | +- remoteStatefulProxyFactory (proxy: $Proxy81 implements interface org.jboss.ejb3.ProxyFactory)
 | +- XMLSerializer (class: org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContext)
 | | +- local (proxy: $Proxy77 implements interface jaxb.xmlserializer.ISerializer,interface org.jboss.ejb3.JBossProxy,interface javax.ejb.EJBLocalObject)

I need ideas.
