The definition of the bean is: @Stateful @Remote(QueryManager.class) @RemoteBinding(jndiBinding="ams/QueryComposerManagerBean/Remote") @Local(QueryManager.class) @LocalBinding(jndiBinding="ams/QueryComposerManagerBean/Local") public class AMSQueryManagerBean implements QueryManager { } JNDI view shows: QueryComposerManagerBean (class: org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContext) | | +- RemoteStatefulProxyFactory (proxy: $Proxy170 implements interface org.jboss.ejb3.ProxyFactory) | | +- Remote (class: java.lang.Object) | | +- LocalStatefulProxyFactory (class: org.jboss.ejb3.stateful.StatefulLocalProxyFactory) | | +- Local (class: java.lang.Object) I manage to lookup it from tomcat, and J2SE clients I cannot lookup it from a WAR that is a part of the deployed ear (throws class cast exception, this is why i checked the JNDI view). For stateless session beans, i see Remote and Local are ok in JNDI view. How can I solve this? (There is no multiple defition in the EAR of the stateful session bean) View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4021922#...
