I'm having problems with Application clients and JNDI. First of all, I can't run the news-app demo provided with orion. I can install it no problem and the web app appears to be fine. When I try the application client I get:
C:\Java\orion\demo\news-app>java -Djava.naming.factory.initial=com.evermind. serv er.ApplicationClientInitialContextFactory -jar news-client.jar Communication error: Error reading application-client descriptor: No location sp ecified and no suitable instance of the type 'com.evermind.ejb.NewsSession' foun d for the ejb-ref ejb/NewsSession Now something even more curious. Take the Product demo (mprod-ejb.jar is a copy of the provided orion-product.jar) C:\Java\orion\my projects\product2>java -jar mprod-ejb.jar Enter the id (integer) of the product you want to add: 345343432 Enter the name for item 345343432: wew Enter the cost for wew: 23 creating prod with id 345343432 adding name wew Product added which is fine. However, if I change the package of the source files to com (rather the the default empty package), recompile, and simply change the location of home/remote/ejb in the xml descriptor files and rejar, I get: C:\Java\orion\my projects\product2>java -jar mprod-ejb.jar Communication error: Error reading application-client descriptor: No location sp ecified and no suitable instance of the type 'com.Product' found for the ejb-ref com.MyProd If I add an orion-application-client.xml (and an orion-ejb-jar.xml) then I get: C:\Java\orion\my projects\product2>java -jar mprod-ejb.jar Communication error: Error reading application-client descriptor: No EJBHome fou nd at com.Product as specified by ejb-ref com.MyProd So, anyone know how to get the demos to work? I'd really appreciate it as I'm now really confused. Many thanks Alistair xml files for mprod after package renaming: <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE application-client PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD J2EE Application Client 1.2//EN" "http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/application-client_1_2.dtd";> <application-client> <ejb-ref> <ejb-ref-name>com.MyProd</ejb-ref-name> <ejb-ref-type>Entity</ejb-ref-type> <home>com.ProductHome</home> <remote>com.Product</remote> </ejb-ref> </application-client> <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE orion-application-client PUBLIC "-//Evermind//DTD J2EE Application-client runtime 1.2//EN" "http://www.orionserver.com/dtds/orion-application-client.dtd";> <orion-application-client> <ejb-ref-mapping name="com.MyProd" location="com.Product"/> </orion-application-client> <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE ejb-jar PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Enterprise JavaBeans 1.2//EN" "http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/ejb-jar_1_2.dtd";> <ejb-jar> <description/> <enterprise-beans> <entity> <description/> <ejb-name>com.MyProd</ejb-name> <home>com.ProductHome</home> <remote>com.Product</remote> <ejb-class>com.ProductEJB</ejb-class> <primkey-class>java.lang.Integer</primkey-class> <reentrant>True</reentrant> <persistence-type>Container</persistence-type> <cmp-field> <field-name>id</field-name> </cmp-field> <cmp-field> <field-name>name</field-name> </cmp-field> <cmp-field> <field-name>description</field-name> </cmp-field> <cmp-field> <field-name>price</field-name> </cmp-field> <primkey-field>id</primkey-field> </entity> </enterprise-beans> <assembly-descriptor> <container-transaction> <method> <ejb-name>com.MyProd</ejb-name> <method-name>*</method-name> </method> <trans-attribute>NotSupported</trans-attribute> </container-transaction> </assembly-descriptor> </ejb-jar> <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE orion-ejb-jar PUBLIC "-//Evermind//DTD Enterprise JavaBeans 1.1 runtime//EN" "http://www.orionserver.com/dtds/orion-ejb-jar.dtd";> <orion-ejb-jar deployment-version="1.5.2" deployment-time="ea77b9f65e"> <enterprise-beans> <entity-deployment name="com.MyProd" location="com.Product" wrapper="ProductHome_EntityHomeWrapper2" max-tx-retries="3" table="com_MyProd" data-source="jdbc/SQLServerDS"> <primkey-mapping> <cmp-field-mapping name="id" persistence-name="id"/> </primkey-mapping> <cmp-field-mapping name="name" persistence-name="name"/> <cmp-field-mapping name="description" persistence-name="description"/> <cmp-field-mapping name="price" persistence-name="price"/> <finder-method query=""> <!-- Generated SQL: "select com_MyProd.id, com_MyProd.name, com_MyProd.description, com_MyProd.price from com_MyProd" --> <method> <ejb-name>com.MyProd</ejb-name> <method-name>findAll</method-name> <method-params/> </method> </finder-method> </entity-deployment> </enterprise-beans> <assembly-descriptor> <default-method-access> <security-role-mapping name="<default-ejb-caller-role>" impliesAll="true"/> </default-method-access> </assembly-descriptor> </orion-ejb-jar>
