    Problems running JBOSS and a standalone Apache Tomcat Server

    bill

      I can't seem to be able to get hold of a EJB's home interface using the following simple code. This code works when the Web Application runs under IBM's Websphere and as a standalone app, but not when the application is transfered to Tomcat.
      The code is:

      // Initial context already found Okay
      // Simple look up
      Object objref = ctx.lookup("StockHoldings");

      StockHoldingsHome home = (StockHoldingsHome) javax.rmi.PortableRemoteObject.narrow (objref,StockHoldingsHome.class);

      // Get hold of the remote interface
      m_StockHoldings = home.create(); // This fails

      The error message is:
      RemoteException occurred in server thread; nested exception is: java.rmi.UnmarshalException: error unmarshalling arguments; nested exception is: java.net.MalformedURLException: no protocol: Files/Apache

      This error occurs even when running sample EJB from Text books.

      Both the JBOSS and Apache Tomcat installation have not been changed - they're installed as default straight out of the box.
      Any suggestions?

      Thanks in advance.

      Application Server JBOSS 3.0.4 Web Server Jakarta Tomcat 4.1.12

          Sounds like you need to include some of the jboss/client jar files in Catalina's classpath. jnp-client.jar and jboss-client.jar for sure - there may be others.

          Catalina_home/common/classes/lib should work. I think server/lib will also work.

          I always fumble through this error myself. Not very scientific I know :-)
