Problem with Oracle9iAS SOAP EJB Sample

Question

I have tried testing the stateless/stateful EJB soap services sample in Oracle9iAS SOAP server.
I have changed the provider.xml. Deployed that and the service.xml and put the sample.jar in the lib directory.
when i run the testit.bat, I get the following error :
Ouch, the call failed:
Fault Code = SOAP-ENV:Server
Fault String = Error in connecting to EJB [java.lang.SecurityException]
Can anyone help me out in this ??
Thanks in advance,
Chhimi

Chhimi, could you check the providers.xml you are using. Here is mine for a local OC4J:
<deployedProviders>
<isd:provider xmlns:isd="http://xmlns.oracle.com/soap/2001/04/deploy/provider"
id="stateless-ejb-provider"
class="oracle.soap.providers.ejbprov.StatelessEJBProvider">
<isd:option key="ContextProviderURL" value="ormi://localhost:23791" />
<isd:option key="SecurityPrincipal" value="admin" />
<isd:option key="FullContextFactoryName" value="com.evermind.server.rmi.RMIInitialContextFactory" />
<isd:option key="SecurityCredential" value="welcome" />
</isd:provider>
</deployedProviders>
When deploying to Oracle9iAS you will likely have to change the RMI port, hostname and password. For example,
a default 9iAS install has EJB's listening on RMI ports 3101 - 3200. For this to hook up you need to pick a port (e.g. 3102) with the appropriate host and password and it should hang together.
What some people do is change the ports to not be dynamic and set it to a specific port as it is with the OC4J stand-alone instance. You can check out the opmnctl command in the <Oracle9iAS_home>\opmn\bin directory to reload the opmn.xml file located in the <Oracle9iAS_home>\opmn\conf directory to do this or more safely use Enterprise Manager to change the RMI ports for the OC4J instance you are using.
Hope this helps. I have been offline for nearly a week but should be checking again regularly if you have problems.
