Hello. I am new to the list, new to EJB 3.0 and new to Geronimo 2. I am pretty sure I understand all of the concepts but I am having an issue with a JNDI lookup in Geronimo. I have created a Bean and it looks as follows.
Interface: @Remote public interface FirstObjectRemote { public String hello(String name); } Class: @Stateless public class FirstObject implements FirstObjectRemote { public FirstObject() { } @Override public String hello(String name){ return "Hello " + name; } } Everything deploys just fine (at lease I think it does). I created a test class: public class TheClass { public static void main(String[] args) { Properties prop=new Properties(); prop.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "org.apache.openejb.client.RemoteInitialContextFactory"); prop.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "ejbd://localhost:1099"); try{ Context context = new InitialContext(prop); FirstObjectRemote firstObject = (FirstObjectRemote)context.lookup("FirstObjectRemote"); System.out.println(firstObject.hello("Russell")); } catch(Exception ex){ System.out.println(ex.toString()); } } } I get an error I when trying to run this. The error that comes back is: javax.naming.NamingException: Cannot lookup '/FirstObjectRemote'. [Root exception is java.rmi.RemoteException: Error while communicating with server: ; nested exception is: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/transaction/RollbackException] What am I missing?
