Thank you Wang and Tang. Here are the things that I have done.
* Changed the JDK to version 1.5.0_6 * Updated all of my classes to use this version of Java * Changed the provider url to ejbd://localhost:4201 I get the error java.lang.RuntimeException: Invalid response from server: -1 From: Ying Tang [mailto:yingtang1...@gmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, March 10, 2009 3:23 AM To: user@geronimo.apache.org Subject: Re: JNDI in Geronimo 2 Yes, should be ejbd://localhost:4201. The same as the example in the doc<http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/GMOxDOC22/Deploying+and+running+EJB+application+clients>. 2009/3/10 Rex Wang <rwo...@gmail.com<mailto:rwo...@gmail.com>> Tang, I believe Russell use a remote client, but not a application client. to Russell, try "ejbd://localhost:4201" Rex. 2009/3/10 Ying Tang <yingtang1...@gmail.com<mailto:yingtang1...@gmail.com>> Hi Russell, I suggest you use JDK 1.5 instead of 1.6. It is also recommended that Eclipse and Geronimo use the same Java environment. Please let me know if there is still any problem. Best Regards, Ying Tang 2009/3/10 Russell Collins <russell.coll...@mclaneat.com<mailto:russell.coll...@mclaneat.com>> Thank you Tang. This should be real strait forward but there has got to be some reason why this is not working. Here is the configuration that I have. This may help in solving this issue. Eclipse Ganymede Java 1.6..0_11 Geronimo 2.1.2 Geronimo 2.1.3 (tried it on both) There are a couple of other things that I tried that gave me different results. 1. Added a runtime dependency to the Geronimo Runtime. This gave me a different error. It was a java runtime error that said that the response from the server is: -1 2. Created a client j2ee application to run my app. Basically, I am following everything in that link that you sent me. I am just getting these errors when trying to look up the object. Any more insight would be greatly appreciated.

Filename not specified.Russell, I tried your example on Geronimo 2.1.4. 1. I renamed the implementation class as FirstObjectBean. A bit different from your code: --------------------------------------------------- @Stateless public class FirstObjectBean implements FirstObjectRemote { import public String hello(String name){ return "Hello " + name; } } --------------------------------------------------- 2. In the application client that referece the EJB, I used --------------------------------------------------- import ejb.FirstObjectRemote; ... FirstObjectRemote firstObject = (FirstObjectRemote)context.lookup("FirstObjectBeanRemote"); --------------------------------------------------- 3. Add the EJB project to the build path of the application client project. 4. Add the two projects to the Geronimo server, and run the application client. The application works well and the "Hello Russel" message shows up. For more detailed information, please refer to: http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/GMOxDOC22/Deploying+and+running+EJB+application+clients Hope this helps. Best Regards, Ying Tang (Sophia) 2009/3/9 Russell Collins <russell.coll...@mclaneat.com<mailto:russell.coll...@mclaneat.com>> 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?
