[Manpreet Singh]

Hi,   Im working on a small project using EJB with weblogic 5.1 . I get the following error when I run  weblogic.ejbc :   java.lang.ClassCastException: com.sun.xml.tree.TextNode         at weblogic.xml.dom.DOMUtils.getOptionalElementsByTagName(DOMUtils.java:204)         at weblogic.xml.dom.DOMUtils.getOptionalElementByTagName(DOMUtils.java:170)         at weblogic.xml.dom.DOMUtils.getOptionalValueByTagName(DOMUtils.java:97)         at weblogic.ejb.deployment.dd.EJBReadDOM.getDescriptionValue(EJBReadDOM.java:404)         at weblogic.ejb.deployment.dd.DescriptorLoader.createDeploymentUnit(DescriptorLoader.java:200)         at weblogic.ejbc.runBody(ejbc.java:299)         at weblogic.utils.compiler.Tool.run(Tool.java:80)         at weblogic.ejbc.main(ejbc.java:353) ERROR: java.lang.ClassCastException: com.sun.xml.tree.TextNode   I guess this error is due to some missing tag in ejb-jar.xml but I dont know which one. Heres my ejb-jar.xml :   <?xml version="1.0"?>   <!DOCTYPE ejb-jar PUBLIC '-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Enterprise JavaBeans 1.1//EN' 'http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/ejb-jar_1_1.dtd'>   <ejb-jar>     <enterprise-beans>       <entity>         <ejb-name>EmployeeHome</ejb-name>         <home>book.chap09.timetracker.EmployeeHome</home>         <remote>book.chap09.timetracker.Employee</remote>         <ejb-class>book.chap09.timetracker.EmployeeBean</ejb-class>         <persistence-type>Bean</persistence-type>         <prim-key-class>book.chap09.timetracker.EmployeePK</prim-key-class>         <reentrant>False</reentrant>       </entity>     </enterprise-beans>     <assembly-descriptor>       <security-role>         <role-name>hrmanager</role-name>       </security-role>       <security-role>         <role-name>empsandmanagers</role-name>       </security-role>       <method-permission>         <description>Some desc will come here</description>         <role-name>hrmanager</role-name>         <method>           <ejb-name>EmployeeHome</ejb-name>             <method-intf>Remote</method-intf>           <method-name>getEmployeeInfo</method-name>         </method>       </method-permission>       <method-permission>         <description>Some desc will come here</description>         <role-name>hrmanager</role-name>         <method>           <ejb-name>EmployeeHome</ejb-name>           <method-intf>Remote</method-intf>           <method-name>setEmployeeInfo</method-name>         </method>       </method-permission>       <method-permission>         <description>Some desc will come here</description>         <role-name>empsandmanagers</role-name>         <method>           <ejb-name>EmployeeHome</ejb-name>           <method-intf>Remote</method-intf>           <method-name>*</method-name>         </method>       </method-permission>       <container-transaction>         <method>           <ejb-name>EmployeeHome</ejb-name>           <method-intf>Remote</method-intf>           <method-name>*</method-name>         </method>         <trans-attribute>Required</trans-attribute>       </container-transaction>     </assembly-descriptor>   </ejb-jar> The classpath is perfect.   Hope u take out some time to solve this problem.   Thanks for your time.
