ClassCast Exception during EJB lookup

Question

Context ctx = new InitialContext();
Object ref = ctx.lookup("MessageSender");
SenderHome senderHome= (SenderHome)PortableRemoteObject.narrow(ref,SenderHome.class);
sender = senderHome.createSender();
where MessageSender is the JNDI name of bean.
The error is ::
java.lang.ClassCastException: com.sap.message.sender.SenderHome#
I have even tried SenderHome senderHome = (SenderHome)ref
bcos SenderHome is locally deployed. I have also tried with SenderLocalHome ,but it also gives ClassCast Exception.

Hi,
Have you tried to find out what the class actually is ?
<code>
Context ctx = new InitialContext();
Object ref = ctx.lookup("MessageSender");
Object objUnknown= PortableRemoteObject.narrow(ref,SenderHome.class);
System.out.println ("Class of object is :" +objUnknown.getClass());
</code>
