Error during JRMP connection establishment when IIOP set as RMI

Hi Paweł,

EasyBeans is not providing iiop tie/stubs of JOTM.
You should add them to the existing libraries.
The iiop jar is provided in the following file : http://download.forge.objectweb.org/jotm/jotm-2.0.10.tgz

The name is jotm_iiop_stubs.jar

I didn't think that people will use IIOP in Tomcat/EasyBeans. This is why this jar is not included

Florent

But shouldn't easybeans set JOTM to use iiop when I configure it as the rmi transport protocol?
I can add the jar to classpath but the JOTM still tries to connect to jrmp name service.

The config should be :
<protocol name="iiop" url="iiop://localhost:2001" />

Else the URL computed is rmi:// <hostname> : <portNumber> (and RMI is not IIOP)

Did that.

Now i got this:

It seems that the name service started by EasyBeans is accessible through corbaloc, but carol doesn't support corbaloc.

Well, I need to investigate more the use of IIOP with Tomcat/EasyBeans

Carol is supporting corbaloc, we're using it in JOnAS application server.
Also EasyBeans inside JOnAS should run perfectly with iiop.

I will keep you informed on this iiop status in Tomcat/EasyBeans

Hi Pawel,

I've fixed the problem of the JMX connector started by EasyBeans when using IIOP inside Tomcat.

It will be available in the next nightly build : http://forge.objectweb.org/nightlybuilds/easybeans/ (2007.08.11) and it is available in the SVN repository (maven build)

In addition to use <protocol url="iiop://.....">

You have to add the following system properties to Tomcat
export CATALINA_OPTS="-Dorg.omg.CORBA.ORBClass=org.jacorb.orb.ORB -Dorg.omg.CORBA.ORBSingletonClass=org.jacorb.orb.ORBSingleton -Dorg.omg.PortableInterceptor.ORBInitializerClass.standard_init=org.jacorb.orb.standardInterceptors.IORInterceptorInitializer"

You can also copy the JacORB jars to the Tomcat directory instead of the JDK
mkdir $CATALINA_HOME/endorsed

List of modules to copy :
$ ls endorsed/
avalon-framework-4.1.5.jar gnu-crypto-sasl-jdk1.4.jar idl.jar jacorb.jar logkit-1.2.jar

Regards,

Florent

I get the same error from nightly build and the one I compiled from trunk:

Paweł,

Due to the Objectwen renaming into OW2 (look at www.ow2.org), EasyBeans packages have been changed to map the new name (since the 1.0M6 version)

Then the root element of the XML file is now looking like:
<easybeans xmlns="http://org.ow2.easybeans.server">

and not <easybeans xmlns="http://org.objectweb.easybeans.server">

Regards,

Florent

Did everything as you described. Below is an output of the trunk build.
Easybeans.xml as above except with the proper namespace.
I can't connect to the name service started by easybeans using com.sun.jndi.cosnaming.CNCtxFactory withe either iiop or corbaloc addresses.

Hello,

What is the version of JacORB that you're using ?

I've tested with this 2.2.3 patched version : (Version used by JOnAS AS)
http://maven.objectweb.org/maven2/org/jacorb/jacorb/2.2.3-jonas-patch-20060131/

Regards,

Florent

2.2.4.
Ok, the name service and EasyBeans starts with the patched jar.
Thank you very much for help with that.

I still can't access the beans from remote client though.
When I use EasyBeans' smart client (org.objectweb.easybeans.component.smartclient.spi.SmartContextFactory), I get this error on lookup method (packages and class names were changed for confidentiality reasons ):

Paweł,

A couple of day ago, I tested with the Carol InitialContext Factory and not the smart factory.
Today, I test with Smart Factory and I notice an error with iiop (that I've fixed in the current SVN).

I've tested on StatelessBean and EntityBean example of EasyBeans.

I start Tomcat (6.0.14)/EasyBeans(current SVN Head) with the following system properties:
export CATALINA_OPTS="-Dorg.omg.CORBA.ORBClass=org.jacorb.orb.ORB -Dorg.omg.CORBA.ORBSingletonClass=org.jacorb.orb.ORBSingleton -Dorg.omg.PortableInterceptor.ORBInitializerClass.standard_init=org.jacorb.orb.standardInterceptors.IORInterceptorInitializer"

And with
<rmi>
<protocol name="iiop" url="iiop://localhost:2001" />
</rmi>

I use CATALINA_HOME/endorsed to add the JacORB jars.

With the current SVN head, no need to add JOTM iiop stubs (they're already present).

Then I modify the stateless client getInitialContext() method by :
env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "org.ow2.easybeans.component.smartclient.spi.SmartContextFactory");
env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "smart://localhost:2503");

It will use Smart Factory.

Then I launch the client with the following lines :

<target name="smartclient.run">
<java fork="true" classname="${client.main.class}">
<classpath path="conf" />
<classpath path="lib/easybeans-component-smartclient-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar" />
<classpath path="${client.dir}/${client.name}.jar" />
<sysproperty key="smart.debug" value="true" />
<sysproperty key="smart.debug.verbose" value="true" />
</java>
</target>

In the conf folder, I add a carol.properties file for IIOP with the following content

$ more conf/carol.properties
carol.protocols=iiop
carol.iiop.url=iiop://localhost:2001

And I launch : ant smartclient.run and I got :

Buildfile: build.xml
[unjar] Expanding: /tmp/tom/apache-tomcat-6.0.14/webapps/ow2-easybeans-war-hibernate.war into /tmp/tom/apache-tomcat-6.0.14/temp/classes.war

smartclient.run:

BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 6 seconds

Then it uses the JDK iiop implementation (on client side) and it works fine

In order to use JacORB on the client side, I could add
<sysproperty key="org.omg.CORBA.ORBClass" value="org.jacorb.orb.ORB"/>
<sysproperty key="org.omg.CORBA.ORBSingletonClass" value="org.jacorb.orb.ORBSingleton"/>
<sysproperty key="org.omg.PortableInterceptor.ORBInitializerClass.standard_init" value="org.jacorb.orb.standardInterceptors.IORInterceptorInitializer"/>
<sysproperty key="java.endorsed.dirs" value="/tmp/tom/apache-tomcat-6.0.14/endorsed/"/> -->

To the java element inside the <java> element of the target. (also, in this case, more classes will be downloaded)

On the server side, if the properties are not set, there are errors while trying to receive the Stubs.

Regards,

Florent

Ok, it's working now.
Carol.properties was needed for the SmartClient to work with iiop.
Thanks a lot for your help and patience. Keep up the good work.
A thought: maybe you should document the steps needed to start embedded EasyBeans with iiop, which is the only protocol required by the EJB3 specification.
Another one: I still can't retrieve beans using com.sun.jndi.cosnaming.CNCtxFactory. I guess an additional layer sits on top of iiop name service. Smart client is enough for me, though it would really be swell if the name service was accessible through clear iiop without any additional mediators.
And another: Is it really necessary for the iiop name service to be started in a separate process? If I want to kill the tomcat process manually (for example when I start the tomcat inside Eclipse - through Eclipse launch), I still have to kill the name service separately (and for this I have to enter Task Manager, because I don't see the process in Eclipse).

Hi Pavel

Yes, IIOP is the only protocol required by the Java EE specification. But almost all users prefers JRMP (faster and leaner) when they don't need interoperabililty with other AS.
As we try to focus on the user needs, this is why some things may not work with IIOP.

I'm quite sure that you could make something work directly by using the CosCtxFactory of sun, but you will need to provided in your client classpath a lot more libraries (JacORB + Stubs).
SmartFactory is only a small layer to ease the client side execution.

Concerning you last remark, I didn't have any answer and Florent is in vacation right now ...

Has been fixed and is available in 1.0RC1
