Hi,

I have a project containing many ejbs. But one of them, a session bean, called UserManager has 2 methods as follows setPassword and authenticate. Both methods throw a RemoteExeption and a UserNotFoundException. I am running JBoss version 3.2.5 and "sometimes" get an error when deploying the UserManager EJB. The error says that there is a mismatch in the exeptions thrown by both methods between the Bean class and the Remote interface. But there is no mismatch, and when I restart JBoss the deployment process works fine. Below is the code for the 2 methods in my Bean class.

public boolean setPassword(String username, String oldPassword,
String newPassword)
throws RemoteException, UserNotFoundException {

try {
LDAPManager manager = getLDAPManager();
return manager.updatePassword(username, oldPassword, newPassword);
}catch (NamingException e){
return false;
}
}

public boolean authenticate(String username, String password)
throws RemoteException, UserNotFoundException {

try {
return getLDAPManager().isValidUser(username, password);
}catch (NamingException e){
return false;
}
}

Below is the code for the 2 methods in my Remote class:
public boolean setPassword(String username, String oldPassword,
String newPassword)
throws RemoteException, UserNotFoundException;

public boolean authenticate(String username, String password)
throws RemoteException, UserNotFoundException;

Can anyone explain this 'random' error please? Thank you.
