Deploy to SatndAlone OC4J with Jdeveloper

Question

I install Jdeveloper and Standalone Oc4J on seperate machines
when I try to deploy an application to Oc4J, always failed ,error cann't find admin.jar
It seems that JD always find admin.jar locally,.As Standalone Oc4J and JD are't on the same server, I cann't deploy successfully.
Standalone Oc4J and JD must be on the same server?
Does anyone have other ideas?
thanks in advance.

JDeveloper and OC4J don't need to be on the same server when you deploy an application. You can enter a remote machine in the URL. The admin.jar has to be local though. (Unless you use OC4J 10.1.3 and use the enterprise manager to deploy the application)
Did you make a connection in JDeveloper to the remote OC4J? You can test this connection and then use this connection when you deploy the application.
What versions of JDeveloper and the standalone OC4J are you using?
In JDeveloper10.1.2 you can specify where the admin.jar is located (right click the oc4j connection, click properties, select the connection tab). The admin jar needs to be local.
I think that some versions of JDeveloper are not completely compatible with some versions of the standalone OC4J. If you use another version of the OC4J, you might need to copy it to the machine where JDeveloper is located and point JDeveloper to it in the connection tab.
Hope this helps,
