Fw: Bean Deployment

[Ray Madigan]

Either what i am trying to do is not possible or it is so trivial - and i lack an understanding.  I hope u can tell me if this should work of if i should find another application server.  Thanks in advance I have an application that i am building an EJB solution for.  The crux of my difficulty stems from the fact that each instance of the application is deployed onto a different database.  So i want to deploy the same bean technology for each database. Each Bean in developed with BMP.  It is built with the standard set of files for example: Member.java MemberHome.java MemberBean.java MemberPK.java each deployment of the bean has a ejb-jar.xml deployment descriptors like:   <entity>       <description>This bean represents a member.</description>       <ejb-name>KirklandMemberBean</ejb-name>       <home>com.mbresearch.member.MemberHome</home>       <remote>com.mbresearch.member.Member</remote>       <ejb-class>com.mbresearch.member.MemberBean</ejb-class>       <persistence-type>Bean</persistence-type>       <prim-key-class>com.mbresearch.member.MemberPK</prim-key-class>       <reentrant>False</reentrant>       <env-entry>                                                                    #describe the database to use for getConnection ( )          <env-entry-name>partition</env-entry-name>          <env-entry-type>java.lang.String</env-entry-type>          <env-entry-value>kirkland</env-entry-value>       </env-entry>       <resource-ref>           <description>DataSource for the xrm database</description>           <res-ref-name>jdbc/kirkland</res-ref-name>           <res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>           <res-auth>Container</res-auth>    </resource-ref> </entity> And the bean jonas deployment descriptor looks like: <jonas-entity>    <ejb-name>KirklandMemberBean</ejb-name> # The unique name ginve the bean <DB>MemberBean    <jndi-name>member@kirkland</jndi-name>    # The named used in lookup to find this bean    <jonas-resource>        <res-ref-name>jdbc/kirkland</res-ref-name>        <jndi-name>kirkland</jndi-name>    </jonas-resource> </jonas-entity> I look up the bean from another session bean with code like: public void showMembers ( String partition ) throws RemoteException {    try {       MemberHome home = ( MemberHome) getHome ( "member@" + partition, MemberHome.class );       // The code never makes it to here       Enumeration enum = home.enumerate ( );       while ( enum.hasMoreElements ( ) ) {          Object ref = enum.nextElement ( );          Member member = ( Member ) PortableRemoteObject.narrow ( ref, Member.class );          System.out.println ( " Member: " + member.getName ( ) );          }     }     catch ( FinderException fe ) { throw new EJBException ( fe ); } } getHome from the calling session bean looks like: protected Object getHome ( String name, Class type ) throws RemoteException {    try {       Object ref = jndiContext.lookup ( name );       return PortableRemoteObject.narrow ( ref, type );    }    catch ( NamingException ne ) { throw new EJBException ( ne ); } } The server error is: Exception: javax.ejb.EJBException System exc. => Rollback the transaction. System Exception in business method:javax.ejb.EJBException And the client side error is: java.rmi.ServerException: RemoteException occurred in server thread; nested exception is: java.rmi.RemoteException: RuntimeException thrown by an enterprise Bean; nested exception is: javax.ejb.EJBException java.rmi.RemoteException: RuntimeException thrown by an enterprise Bean; nested exception is: javax.ejb.EJBException javax.ejb.EJBException at sun.rmi.transport.StreamRemoteCall.exceptionReceivedFromServer(StreamRemoteCall.java:245) at sun.rmi.transport.StreamRemoteCall.executeCall(StreamRemoteCall.java:220) at sun.rmi.server.UnicastRef.invoke(UnicastRef.java:354) at org.objectweb.jonas.rmifilters.RemoteStub.invoke(RemoteStub.java:87) at com.mbresearch.registrar.JOnASRegistrarBeanRemote_Stub.showPartitions (JOnASRegistrarBeanRemote_Stub.java :196) at getMember.main(getMember.java:26)
