JNDI lookup problem in advice client

[Mukesh Parsana]

I am preparaing for SCBCD exam. But because of the following problem, I am not able to move ahead on my preparation path. Please solve my problem as soon as possible. Thanks in advance.

I am using j2ee 1.3 RI. My advice client code is pasted below
-----------------------------------------------------------------
public class AdviceClient
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
new AdviceClient().go();
}

public void go()
{
try
{
Hashtable env=new Hashtable();
env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "com.sun.enterprise.naming.SerialInitContextFactory");
env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "localhost:1050");
Context ic=new InitialContext(env);
Object o=ic.lookup("Advisor");
AdviceHome home=(AdviceHome) PortableRemoteObject.narrow(o, AdviceHome.class);
Advice advisor=home.create();
System.out.println(advisor.getTheMessage());
}
catch(Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}


It is showing the following error.
-------------------------------------------------------------

Thank you very much keerthi. Actually I was not able to run program using j2ee 1.3 RI. But on j2ee 1.4, it is running successfully.
Thank you very much for your help.

Hi Mukesh,
Please try to put the %J2EE_HOME%\lib\j2ee.jar;%J2EE_HOME%\lib;.; in the classpath of your environment variables and execute.
