----------------------------------------

Re: I wasn't able to reproduce the exception given above,

I'm able to replicate it very easily. Let me upload the deployment
archives and the JBDS project and let me explain what you need 
to run.

> Now, to get this Exception is very misleading. It generally means that either you have different 
> client and server side Remoting versions, or you're using different serialization methods on either 
> side.
> Once I started to dig into what Remoting was doing, I spotted HTTPClientInvoker does the following in
> useHttpURLConnection() method:
>          if (sendingData)
>          {
>             //POST or PUT
>             conn.setDoOutput(true);
>             conn.setDoInput(true);
>             conn.setRequestMethod(type);
>             OutputStream stream = conn.getOutputStream();
>             if (marshaller instanceof VersionedMarshaller)
>                ((VersionedMarshaller) marshaller).write(invocation, stream, Version.getDefaultVersion());
>             else
>                marshaller.write(invocation, stream);
>             responseCode = conn.getResponseCode();
>             InputStream is = (responseCode < 400) ? conn.getInputStream() : conn.getErrorStream();
>             Map headers = conn.getHeaderFields();
>             if (metadata == null)
>             {
>                metadata = new HashMap();
>             }
>             // sometimes I get headers with "null" keys (I don't know who's fault is it), so I need
>             // to clean the header map, unless I want to get an NPE thrown by metadata.putAll()
>             if (headers != null)
>             {
>                for(Iterator i = headers.entrySet().iterator(); i.hasNext(); )
>                {
>                   Map.Entry e = (Map.Entry)i.next();
>                   if (e.getKey() != null)
>                   {
>                      metadata.put(e.getKey(), e.getValue());
>                   }
>                }
>             }
>             metadata.put(HTTPMetadataConstants.RESPONSE_CODE_MESSAGE, conn.getResponseMessage());
>             metadata.put(HTTPMetadataConstants.RESPONSE_CODE, new Integer(responseCode));
>             result = readResponse(metadata, headers, unmarshaller, is);
>          }
> The Exception reported is coming from readResponse() but before that if the Servlet was not available, 
> like in my case, conn.getResponseCode() was returning 404.
> Remoting code should check what the response code was, whether this is an invalid code, i.e. does not exist...etc, 
> and throw an Exception if invalid, like in this case, giving the caller much better clue of what is going on.
> Thoughts?
