How to handle exceptions on ejb invocations over http servle

shbigdel Sep 4, 2008 6:08 AM

Hi everybody,

I'm making calls to an ejb from a remote client over http servlet. (jboss4.2.3.GA + jboss-remoting-2_2_2_SP8 + ejb3)

I'm using the
org.jboss.remoting.transport.servlet.web.ServerInvokerServlet and the
@RemoteBinding annotation for the ejb to establish this.

It works fine so far. But if an exception gets thrown in the ejb I will only
get an exception of type org.jboss.remoting.transport.http.WebServerError on
the client.

Is there a way to access the originally thrown exception on the client?

See Section "5.4.14. Exception handling for web based clients" of the Remoting Guide (http://www.jboss.org/jbossremoting/docs/guide/2.2/html/index.html).

In particular, add "return-exception=true" to the InvokerLocator in .../server/$CONFIG/deploy/ejb3.deployer/META-INF/jboss-service.xml:

<attribute name="InvokerLocator">socket://${jboss.bind.address}:3873/?return-exception=true</attribute>
