Calling an EJB deployed in OC4J from Java Stored Proc in Oracle

Question

Hello!
Trying to make a call to an EJB deployed in OCJ4 from a oracle java stored proc. After loaded orion.jar and crimson.jar lib into SCOTT schema, I can't get the JNDI Context working because of this error:
============================================
javax.naming.NoInitialContextException: Cannot instantiate class:
com.evermind.server.ApplicationClientInitialContextFactory. Root exception is
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:
com/evermind/server/ApplicationClientInitialContextFactory
at java.lang.Class.forName0(Class.java)
at java.lang.Class.forName(Class.java)
at com.sun.naming.internal.VersionHelper12.loadClass(VersionHelper12.java:45)
at javax.naming.spi.NamingManager.getInitialContext(NamingManager.java)
at javax.naming.InitialContext.getDefaultInitCtx(InitialContext.java)
at javax.naming.InitialContext.init(InitialContext.java)
at javax.naming.InitialContext.<init>(InitialContext.java)
===============================
I did load the java with "loadjava" with on time with the "resolve" option and time time no option and still no working.
Here is the EJB client code:
=======================================
import java.sql.*;
import java.util.*;
import javax.naming.*;
import com.evermind.server.ApplicationClientInitialContextFactory;
class EmpRemoteCall {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println(getEmpName());
public static String getEmpName() {
String ejbUrl = "java:comp/env/ejb/Emp";
String username = "admin";
String password = "admin";
Hashtable environment = new Hashtable();
environment.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "com.evermind.server.ApplicationClientInitialContextFactory");
environment.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "ormi://127.0.0.1/testemp");
environment.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, username);
environment.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, password);
//environment.put(Context.SECURITY_AUTHENTICATION, ServiceCtx.NON_SSL_LOGIN);
//environment.put(javax.naming.Context.URL_PKG_PREFIXES, "oracle.aurora.jndi");
com.kboum.sertir.essais.EmpHome homeInterface = null;
try {
Class.forName("com.evermind.server.ApplicationClientInitialContextFactory", true, ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader());
System.out.println("Creating an initial context");
Context ic = new InitialContext(environment);
System.out.println("Looking for the EJB published as 'java:comp/env/ejb/Emp'");
homeInterface = (com.kboum.sertir.essais.EmpHome) ic.lookup(ejbUrl);
catch (CommunicationException e) {
System.out.println("Unable to connect: " + ejbUrl);
e.printStackTrace();
//System.exit(1);
catch (NamingException e) {
System.out.println("Exception occurred!");
System.out.println("Cause: This may be an unknown URL, or some" +
" classes required by the EJB are missing from your classpath.");
System.out.println("Suggestion: Check the components of the URL," +
" and make sure your project includes a library containing the" +
" EJB .jar files generated by the deployment utility.");
e.printStackTrace();
//System.exit(1);
catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
System.out.println("Unable to connect: " + ejbUrl);
e.printStackTrace();
//System.exit(1);
try {
System.out.println("Creating a new EJB instance");
com.kboum.sertir.essais.Emp remoteInterface = homeInterface.findByPrimaryKey(Integer.valueOf("7369"));
System.out.println(remoteInterface.getENAME());
System.out.println(remoteInterface.getSAL());
remoteInterface.setSAL(2);
System.out.println(remoteInterface.getSAL());
return remoteInterface.getENAME();
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println(e.getMessage());
e.printStackTrace();
return "error";
null

What I did to solve this problem was to
create a simple RMI remote object that
resides outside the database JVM and that
serves as a proxy EJB client for your java
stored procedure. The stored procedure can
invoke a method on the remote RMI object
which then looks up the EJBean's home
interface and invokes the relevant method on
the bean's remote interface, and relays any
return values back to the java stored
procedure.
Hope this helps,
Avi.
