Spring RMI Remoting Maven Build ClassCast Execption

Question

e have used spring remoting using RMI feature, where the service and client are deployed on same weblogic server. I am using JndiRmiServiceExporter and JndiRmiProxyFactoryBean. It works fine if i deploy the applications through weblogic workshop. But it fails at runtime when a maven build is done and deployed throwing an error
org.springframework.remoting.RemoteLookupFailureException: Could not narrow RMI stub to service interface [xxx.xxIntf]; nested exception is java.lang.ClassCastException: Cannot narrow remote object ClusterableRemoteRef(1683913221122928763S::production_domain:AdminServer [1683913221122928763S::production_domain:AdminServer/416])/416 to xxxx.xxIntf
Client applicationContext xml entries
<bean class="org.springframework.remoting.rmi.JndiRmiServiceExporter">
          <property name="service" value="xxxxImpl"/>
          <property name="jndiName" value="jndiName"/>
          <property name="serviceInterface" value="xxxxIntf"/>
     </bean>
Server applicationContext xml entries
<bean id="bean-id" class="org.springframework.remoting.rmi.JndiRmiProxyFactoryBean">
          <property name="jndiName" value="jndiName"/>
          <property name="jndiEnvironment">
               <props>
                    <prop key="java.naming.factory.url.pkgs">weblogic.jndi.factories</prop>
               </props>
          </property>
          <property name="serviceInterface" value="xxxxxIntf"/>
          <property name="refreshStubOnConnectFailure"><value>true</value></property>
          <property name="lookupStubOnStartup"><value>false</value></property>
     </bean>
Does anything has to be included when a maven build is done.

Hi
I have a similar issue with ant. I try to do a remote lookup via an custom built ant task, but it fails at runtime with the same exception that you got.
Did you found any solution?
