Calling session Bean deployed on jboss 5.x from client side - ejb-3.0

Question

I'm running JBoss 5.1 GA with JDK 1.6 on Linux and trying to call session bean(jar containing this session bean is deployed on jboss server), Now i want to call this session bean from client, but didnt work.
Java Code at client Side
public class CallingJbossSessionBeanFromClient {
/**
* #param args
* #throws Exception
*/
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
{
Properties p = new Properties();
p.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory");
p.put(Context.URL_PKG_PREFIXES, "org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces");
p.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "jnp://182.158.93.41:8080");
Context context = new InitialContext(p);
System.out.println("Successfully Lookup and going to call SessionBean Function deployed on JBoss-5.1.0 Server");
SlsSessiongRemote remote=(SlsSessionRemote) context.lookup("SlsSessionBean/remote");
//SlsSessionBean/remote is RemoteBinding of session Bean
System.out.println("Called");
}
}
where 'SlsSessionBean/remote' is remote binding of session bean deployed on jboss server.
#Stateless
#RemoteBinding(jndiBinding="SlsSessionBean/remote")
but end up with following error

Plz tell me, am i on the right way to call sesion bean from client java class?
I have spent hours looking for solution on Google. However I cannot seem to find anything that holds the hand..try to be more clear, i'm in lack of ideas in this problem, even it sounds like a classic
Plz suggest solution

Answer 1

The solution to this problem is to open the JMX-Console and click on the service=Naming to view the MBean view of the Naming service. Check if the port used is still 1099.....
Changed the URL to jnp://182.158.93.41:1299, the client could communicate with the EJB.

Answer 2

If you are running over JBoss AS 5.x
Here is RMI based JNDI description.
RMI-Port: default -1099 / If dynamic port changed to ports-01 Then Port is 1199
Now, Remaining Things are OK, Modify code ass below
Properties p = new Properties();
p.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory");
p.put(Context.URL_PKG_PREFIXES, "org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces");
p.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "jnp://182.158.93.41:1199");
Another Point is case of accessing
SlsSessiongRemote remote=(SlsSessionRemote) context.lookup("SlsSessionBean/remote");
if - #Stateless(name="SlsSessionBean")
Then Remote JNDI- [SlsSessionBean/remote] and Local JNDI - [SlsSessionBean/local]
if - #Stateless(name="SlsSessionBean", mappedName="SlsSessionBeanGlobal")
Then Remote JNDI- [SlsSessionBeanGlobal] and Local JNDI - [SlsSessionBean/local]
