Luciano -----Messaggio originale----- Da: Dan Winfield [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Inviato: luned́ 15 maggio 2000 11.12 A: Orion-Interest Oggetto: RMI remote server error Hi Guys Using the latest Orion 1 rc1. Tried to set up two instances of orion with one of them having a remote rmi server connection. Add this line to rmi.xml for host 1 <server host="xxx.immstudios.com" password="123" port="23791" username="admin" /> Host 2, I have allowed users to connect by changing the principals.xml to dectivated="false". First I start host 2. Then I start host 1 and it tries to connect to host 2. However, host 2 just prints this error to the shell. java.lang.NullPointerException: parent was null at com.evermind.server.rmi.a7.f4(Compiled Code) at com.evermind.server.rmi.a4.resolveClass(Compiled Code) at java.io.ObjectInputStream.inputClassDescriptor(Compiled Code) at java.io.ObjectInputStream.readObject(Compiled Code) at java.io.ObjectInputStream.readObject(Compiled Code) at java.io.ObjectInputStream.inputObject(Compiled Code) at java.io.ObjectInputStream.readObject(Compiled Code) at java.io.ObjectInputStream.readObject(Compiled Code) at com.evermind.server.rmi.a7.f5(Compiled Code) at com.evermind.server.rmi.a7.run(Compiled Code) at com.evermind.util.e.run(Compiled Code) What is wrong? Am I missing something? Has anyone else on this list ever got EJB to work between 2 instances of Orion? Dan
