Dear rules users,

I am currently writing my own Drools-server since I wanted more control than the drools-execution server (and it never worked very well here) where I can send rules/facts over JMS/AQMP/STOMP. Rules which are sent are saved on the server-side in DRL files that are monitored. That way, I can debug easily by changing the sent files. However, when I sent the following code, the agent does not provide me with an error message at all and hangs:

rule "TrackerRemote.TrackerUpdate"
    when
        message:TrackerRemote.TrackerUpdate()
    then
        System.out.println("Tracker: " + message);
end

at first I thought it was because TrackerRemote.TrackerUpdate is not in that package anymore and thus unknown so I tried to send the rule listed below which gives me the nice and expected error:
    Unable to resolve ObjectType 'NotExistingType' : [Rule name='Foo']

rule "Foo"
    when
        NotExistingType( bloe == "test")
    then
        System.out.println("this should not work");
end

when I compile the rule myself with a KnowledgeBuilder:

KnowledgeBuilder kbuilder = KnowledgeBuilderFactory.newKnowledgeBuilder();
InputStream is = new ByteArrayInputStream(drlstring.getBytes());
kbuilder.add( ResourceFactory.newInputStreamResource(is),ResourceType.DRL );

I receive the error:
org.drools.rule.Rule cannot be cast to org.drools.rule.Query
which I think doesn't tell me anything about the mistake I made in my rule, is this a Drools bug and should I post this somewhere?

Kind Regards,
De Rooms Brecht
