[jboss-user] [Beginners Corner] - Call an ejb from Servlet in different application

Has anyone been able to successfully call an ejb from a servlet that is deployed in a separate ear file, where both are deployed via JBoss. I have ServletA that is deployed in app1.ear and EJB1 that is deployed in app2.ear. I attempt to lookup the ejb from ServletA, but it fails and the following exception is caught SEVERE: object is not an instance of declaring class java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: object is not an instance of declaring class at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl. java:39) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAcces sorImpl.java:25) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:585) at org.jboss.ha.framework.interfaces.HARMIClient.invoke(HARMIClient.java :258) at $Proxy262.lookup(Unknown Source) at org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContext.lookup(NamingContext.java:625) at org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContext.lookup(NamingContext.java:587) at javax.naming.InitialContext.lookup(InitialContext.java:351) at mil.navy.admacs.DiscoveryManager.discover(DiscoveryManager.java:107) web.xml for servlet which resides in app2.ear <ejb-ref> <ejb-ref-name>ejb/User/EJB1</ejb-ref-name> <ejb-ref-type>Session</ejb-ref-type> com.ssi.ejb.EJB1Home mil com.ssi.ejb.EJB1 </ejb-ref> jboss-web.xml for servlet which resides in app2.ear <ejb-ref> <ejb-ref-name>ejb/User/EJB1</ejb-ref-name> <jndi-name>ejb/User/EJB1</jndi-name> </ejb-ref> ejb-jar.xml file for EJB resides in app1.ear: UserBeanSession <display-name>UserBeanSession</display-name> <ejb-name>UserBean</ejb-name> com.ssi.ejb.EJB1Home com.ssi.ejb.EJB1 <ejb-class>com.ssi.ejb.EJB1Session</ejb-class> <session-type>Stateless</session-type> Any ideas, thanks in advance!
