Re: [rules-users] ClassCastException when firing rules

hi, We are using Drools 4.0.7 in a web application deployed in WebSphere 6.1. Occasionally, we have rule engine failure caused by RuntimeDroolsException (whose root cause is shown as ClassCastException) when firing rules. Other times, the rules are executing without errors. Here is the stack trace of the exception. What are the possible reasons? Thanks, Seema org.drools.RuntimeDroolsException: Exception executing predicate eval( inventory.leaseInformation != null ) at org.drools.rule.PredicateConstraint.isAllowed(PredicateConstraint.java:216)
