CORBA BAD_OPERATION

[Unnsse Khan]

Ok,

I am running the J2EE 1.3 Reference Implementation on WinXP. I am using the Head First EJB book to learn EJB, head first.

My directory structure is as follows:

(1) Advice (the top-level directory in F:\Java Projects\J2EE Projects\Advice).

(2) 3 subdirectories underneath Advice:
<src>
<shared>
<cls>

in the <src> directory there is an additional subdirectory, called <headfirst>.

the F:\Java Projects\J2EE Projects\Advice\src\headfirst\ directory contains the Advice.java, AdviceHome.java, and AdviceBean.java

I compiled all 3 files successfully, and <cls> directories contain the interpreted bytecode (.class files).

I, then, ran the J2EE RI 1.3, I created an Advice application, added the enterprise bean, verified, and then deployed it.

Inside the <shared> directory located under:

F:\Java Projects\J2EE Projects\Advice\shared, are these two files:

AdviceApp.ear
AdviceAppClient.jar

I generated both of these using the deploytool.

Now, when cd into F:\Java Projects\J2EE Projects\Advice\src\ and compile the AdviceClient.java into ..\cls, everything works.

However, I get this problem when I try to run the client:

F:\Java Projects\J2EE Projects\Advice\cls>java -cp %CLASSPATH%;..\sh
ared\AdviceAppClient.jar AdviceClient
