Calling a BPEL process from java (STRUTS)

Question

Hi,
I´ve a workspace where I have all the deployed bpel processes, and I´ve other workspace with a Struts project. I deployed my Struts project in the OC4J Server where the BPEL processes are deployed.
I´m trying to initialise Locator instance in a .java file. The Locator will search the bpel processes in the default domain. I get an exception when I run the project, dont know what I´m doing wrong. (can´t copy the exception from the Embedded OC4J Server)
THE CODE:
static Locator locator = null;
static String bpelDomain = "default";
static String bpelDomainPassword = "bpel";
static String orabpelPlatform = "oc4j_10g";
static String javaNamingFactoryInitial = "com.evermind.server.rmi.RMIInitialContextFactory";
static String javaNamingProviderUrl = "ormi://develc15:23791/orabpel";
static String javaNamingSecurityPrincipal = "admin";
static String javaNamingSecurityCredentials = "welcome";
static String dedicatedRmiContext = "true";
public static void invokeProcess(String processName, String operationName, String sXml)
try
Properties props = new java.util.Properties();
props.setProperty("orabpel.platform",orabpelPlatform);
props.setProperty("java.naming.factory.initial",javaNamingFactoryInitial);
props.setProperty("java.naming.provider.url",javaNamingProviderUrl);
props.setProperty("java.naming.security.principal",javaNamingSecurityPrincipal);
props.setProperty("java.naming.security.credentials",javaNamingSecurityCredentials);
props.setProperty("dedicated.rmicontext", dedicatedRmiContext);
locator = new Locator(bpelDomain, bpelDomainPassword,props);
} catch (Exception r)
r.printStackTrace();

I tried to call an async BPEL process from simple Java client. The only difference that I see in your code and mine is, that I haven't specified the "orabpelPlatform" and "dedicatedRMIContext" properties. Also, another diferenece is the ProviderURL used. I have copied the settings as found under "samples/tutorial/102.InvokeProcess/rmi/Context.Properties".
While setting the properties use -
Context.INITIAL_FACTORY
Context.PROVIDER_URL
Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL
Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS
instead of specifying java.naming.xxxxxx class names.
Please check the file to see what are the Context properties set during installation for your BPEL PM. Use the same to define Properties to be passed as parameter in the Locator constructor.
