Remote lookup of slsb failing from jar file, although very similar lookup from a jar file being called from same place works.

Question

I have a a number of jar files that perform rmi. These are all working except one, the problematic one attempts to look up a remote slsb in a different project.

So the code is the same here:

machineNameOrAddress = args[0];
jndiPortNumber = args[1];
action = args[2];
    Properties properties = new Properties();
    properties.setProperty("java.naming.factory.initial", "org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory");
    properties.setProperty("java.naming.provider.url", "jnp://" + machineNameOrAddress + ":" + jndiPortNumber);
    properties.setProperty("java.naming.factory.url.pkgs", "org.jboss.naming");
    try {

    initialContext = new InitialContext(properties);

But then the difference occurs; this is OK:

IEmailNotificationSLSBRemote notificationSLSBRemote = (IEmailNotificationSLSBRemote) initialContext.lookup("ProjectOne/EmailNotificationSLSB/remote");

This is not OK:

IEmailNotificationSLSBRemote notificationSLSBRemote = (IEmailNotificationSLSBRemote) initialContext.lookup("ProjectTwo/EmailNotificationSLSB/remote");

Everythign compiles everythign else works OK, I think have set everythign up ok (well almost everything).

This is the error, it is the same client directory. The rmi's are being invoked in the same place.

Any help greatly appreciated. The slsbs are present in both projects, they do almost the same thing. The jar files compile fine and a located in same location. And both a present and correct in jmx console jboss.j2ee:

ear=ProjectOne.ear,jar=ProjectOne-ejb.jar,name=EmailNotificationSLSB,service=EJB3

ear=ProjectTwo.ear,jar=ProjectTwo-ejb.jar,name=EmailNotificationSLSB,service=EJB3

Answer 1

ProjectTwo jar file needed to be copied to the directory containing the calling jars.
