HelloWorld EJB

[Ajai]

Hi All,
I am unable to run a simple HelloWorld ejb .I am using websphere 4.0 .
I am get an error while deploying .
The code is as follows
**************HelloWorld .java*******************
package myejbpackage;
import javax.ejb.*;
import java.rmi.*;
public interface HelloWorldHome extends EJBHome
{
public HelloWorld create() throws RemoteException , javax.ejb.CreateException ;
}
*********HelloWorldBean ******************
package myejbpackage;
import java.rmi.RemoteException;
import java.util.Properties;
import javax.ejb.*;
public class HelloWorldBean implements SessionBean {
public void ejbActivate() {}
public void ejbCreate() {}
public void ejbPassivate() {}
public void ejbRemove() throws java.rmi.RemoteException {}
public String getTextMessage() {
return "hello world";
}
public void setSessionContext(SessionContext ctx)
{
}
}
************HelloWorldHome .java
package myejbpackage;
import javax.ejb.*;
import java.rmi.*;
public interface HelloWorldHome extends EJBHome {
public HelloWorld create() throws RemoteException , javax.ejb.CreateException ;
}
******************************************************************
All these files reside in C:\JDK..\bin\myejbpackage
I compile these
C:\jdk1.3.1_02\bin>javac myejbpackage\*.java
C:\jdk1.3.1_02\bin>jar cvf HelloWorld.jar myejbpackage\*.class
*************************************************
I deploy these in AAT and I save archive as hello.jar in C:\jdk..\bin.
After I click Generate Now button it gives the following o/p with an error at the end.

I think you are incorectly creating your jar file.
C:\jdk1.3.1_02\bin>jar cvf HelloWorld.jar myejbpackage\*.class
usually, I would do:
create a new folder, e.g.: c:\test
move myejbpackage there so you have c:\test\myejbpackage
then
c:\test>jar cvf HelloWorld.jar .
This will correctly give you the packages.
Can you look at the jar and see if you see any packages?

Look at your own code. You declared the class "HelloWorldHome" in the Java file for both the remote and the home.

Hi ,
Sorry Kyle , I tested the correct code , but pasted wrong one here.
I tried creating the jar as suggested by Thembile Mzantsi .
But result is still the same .I want to highlight that in the AAT i am giving
Bindings as HelloWorldBean .Is that OK??
**************HelloWorld .java*******************
package myejbpackage;
import javax.ejb.*;
import java.rmi.*;
public interface HelloWorld extends EJBObject
{
String getTextMessage() throws RemoteException ;
}
*********HelloWorldBean ******************
package myejbpackage;
import javax.ejb.*;
public class HelloWorldBean implements SessionBean {
public void ejbActivate() {}
public void ejbCreate() {}
public void ejbPassivate() {}
public void ejbRemove() throws java.rmi.RemoteException {}
public String getTextMessage() {
return "hello world";
}
public void setSessionContext(SessionContext ctx)
{
}
}
************HelloWorldHome .java
package myejbpackage;
import javax.ejb.*;
import java.rmi.*;
public interface HelloWorldHome extends EJBHome {
public HelloWorld create() throws RemoteException , javax.ejb.CreateException ;
}
******************************************************************
All these files reside in C:\JDK..\bin\myejbpackage
I compile these as
C:\jdk1.3.1_02\bin>javac myejbpackage\*.java
and creating a jar file like this after putting myejbpackage dir in c:\test
C:\test>jar cvf HelloWorld.jar myejbpackage\*.class

I deploy these in AAT and I save archive as hello.jar in C:\test\Hello.jar.

In your remote interface your method is not declared public. Make it so.

Hi Kyle ,
Gives the same error even after making it public.
I am totally clueless why is it not working fine.
TIA,
