To view the discussion, visit: https://community.jboss.org/message/735377#735377 -------------------------------------------------------------- Hi, here is my problem, I made an EJB with maven and 2 test clients, * a test client without maven, only added jnp-client and the EJB to it's class path, work like a charm * a test client using MAVEN, added the EJB through the POM and jnp-client, does not work this is my EJB : [img] http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/480421EJB1.png http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/480421EJB1.png[/img] it's POM : [code] <project xmlns=" http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi=" http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"   xsi:schemaLocation=" http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">   <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>   <groupId>com.thongvan.mp</groupId>   <artifactId>MyFirstMavenEjb</artifactId>   <version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>   <packaging>ejb</packaging>   <name>MyFirstMavenEjb</name>   <url> http://maven.apache.org http://maven.apache.org</url>   <dependencies>     <dependency>       <groupId>javax</groupId>       <artifactId>javaee-api</artifactId>       <version>6.0</version>       <scope>provided</scope>     </dependency>   </dependencies>    <!-- setting default EJB2 to EJB3 -->   <build>     <plugins>       <plugin>         <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>         <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>         <version>2.0.2</version>         <configuration>           <source>1.5</source>           <target>1.5</target>         </configuration>       </plugin>       <plugin>         <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>         <artifactId>maven-ejb-plugin</artifactId>         <version>2.1</version>         <configuration>           <ejbVersion>3.0</ejbVersion>         </configuration>       </plugin>     </plugins>   </build> </project> [/code] this is my first test client, the one without maven wich has no problem whatsoever to speak with the EJB [img] http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/974963EJB0.png http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/974963EJB0.png[/img] this is my second test client, using maven, it cannot speak with the EJB, all I'm getting is : [code] Context lookup finished Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassCastException: javax.naming.Reference cannot be cast to com.thongvan.mp.MyFirstMavenEjb.TestMavenEjb           at com.thongvan.mp.TestClientMavenEjb.App.main(App.java:27) [/code] [img] http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/651692EJB2.png http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/651692EJB2.png[/img] It's POM : [code] <project xmlns=" http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi=" http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"   xsi:schemaLocation=" http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">   <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>   <groupId>com.thongvan.mp</groupId>   <artifactId>TestClientMavenEjb</artifactId>   <version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>   <packaging>jar</packaging>   <name>TestClientMavenEjb</name>   <url> http://maven.apache.org http://maven.apache.org</url>   <properties>     <project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding>   </properties>   <!-- pour la dependance jnp-client, besoin de la version 5.0.3.GA -->   <repositories>     <repository>       <id>Jboss</id>       <url> https://repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/repositories/releases/ https://repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/repositories/releases/</url...     </repository>   </repositories>   <dependencies>           <dependency>                       <groupId>org.jboss.naming</groupId>                       <artifactId>jnp-client</artifactId>                       <version>5.0.3.GA</version>           </dependency>           <dependency>                       <groupId>com.thongvan.mp</groupId>                       <artifactId>MyFirstMavenEjb</artifactId>                        <version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>           </dependency>   </dependencies> </project> [/code] Both clients have the same main : [code]     public static void main( String args[] ) throws NamingException     {               Hashtable env = new Hashtable();

Jboss 5.1.0.GA Eclipse indigo Maven 3.0.4 Also I did some poking around by printing a toString on both context lookup here is what I got : [b]Maven project (not working)[/b] Reference Class Name: Proxy for: com.thongvan.mp.MyFirstMavenEjb.TestMavenEjb Type: ProxyFactoryKey Content: ProxyFactory/MyFirstMavenEjb/TestMavenEjbBean/TestMavenEjbBean/remote Type: EJB Container Name Content: jboss.j2ee:jar=MyFirstMavenEjb.jar,name=TestMavenEjbBean,service=EJB3 Type: Proxy Factory is Local Content: false Type: Remote Business Interface Content: com.thongvan.mp.MyFirstMavenEjb.TestMavenEjb Type: Remoting Host URL Content: socket://localhost:3873/ [b]regular project (working)[/b] Proxy to jboss.j2ee:jar=MyFirstMavenEjb.jar, name=TestMavenEjbBean, service=EJB3 implementing [interface com.thongvan.mp.MyFirstMavenEjb.TestMavenEjb] -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [https://community.jboss.org/message/735377#735377] Start a new discussion in EJB3 at Community [https://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
