Hi everybody,

I'm trying to use Clustering but I'm running into some problems. I use jboss-3.0.3 with tomcat-4.1.12 and the default configuration for clistering and farming. I'm using HA-JNDI as well.

What I'm doing:

Just after I call the create() of my EJB (Stateless Session EJB), I start several threads, each one calling once the remote method of the EJB. I mean: 1 call to create() then several calls to remoteMethod() in separate threads.


The problem is:

When I do it from a standalone Java client for the EJB, it works fine and I can see the RoundRobin. But when I do it from a Servlet, only one JBoss server is called (the same that runs the Servlet), that is, the cluster doesn't work properly.

Any idea why??? Is there a solution for this? (I can't use a standalone client)

I'm sending some source code below...

Thanks in advance!
Regards,

Paulo
