[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Resolved: (JBAS-5816) ClassCastException after redeploying ejb to cluster

ClassCastException after redeploying ejb to cluster --------------------------------------------------- Key: JBAS-5816 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBAS-5816 Project: JBoss Application Server Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: Clustering, EJB3 Affects Versions: JBossAS-4.2.2.GA Environment: jboss-4.2.2 on centos, with jdk-1.5.0_15 Reporter: Brett Cave Assignee: Brian Stansberry deploying 2 EARs. node1 is the deployment server, where application is hot-deployed into farm. node2 is a cluster member. EAR1: baseEJB1-ejb.jar, packaged in base-ear.ear (contains ejb class BaseManagerBean which implements interface BaseManager). EAR2: alpha.war and alpha-ejb.jar, packaged in alpha-ear.ear. A class in alpha-ejb (ProcessHandlerBean) instantiates the ejb, as follows: public class ProcessHandlerBean implements ProcessHandler { @EJB(beanName="BaseManagerBean") protected BaseManager baseman; ... } Rebuild and deploy EAR2 to the cluster, causes no problems Running jboss with a single node (non-clustered) and rebuild and redeploy EAR1, then rebuild and redeploy EAR2 has no problems. In a clustered environment If i rebuild EAR1, redeploy it, then rebuild EAR2 (including the jar from EAR1 in the classpath for the libraries) and deploy, I get ClassCastException from a class in alpha-ejb that instantiates the ejb from baseEJB, but only on my deployment node, node1. The other node, node2, has no classcast exceptions. However, if i stop the deployment node1 and start it up again, then I get the ClassCastException on node2, and node1 has no errors. Restarting node2 then resolves CCE error.
