ValidationException: Duplicate type name

Question

I am trying to deploy an ejb web service to oc4j 10.1.3.1.1 from JDeveloper 10.1.3.2. During deployment I get this exception thrown:
07/04/19 09:53:03 oracle.j2ee.ws.common.tools.api.ValidationException: gov.mi.mdch.mcirhl7.data.Select - Duplicate type name "gov.mi.mdch.mcirhl7.data.Select" for Java type "{http://service.ejb.mcirhl7.mdch.mi.gov/}Select" found. To remove this error do not specify a single typeNamespace for all value types or specify a mapping file. This error could also be caused when an erroneous type has been used more than once.

My interface looks like this:
package gov.mi.mdch.mcirhl7.ejb.service;
@WebService
public interface CodeDataServiceWebService extends Remote {
List<ServiceType> queryServiceTypeFindAll()
throws RemoteException;
List<Version> queryVersionFindAll()
throws RemoteException;
This interface is implemented with a simple stateless session bean (where I do not have any web service specific annotations, mainly because JDeveloper did insert any there when it auto-generated the web service interface). Both Version and ServiceType are EJB 3.0 entity beans which extend gov.mi.mdch.mcirhl7.data.Select. If I change ServiceType so that it does not extend Select, then it deploys fine. Same if I just comment out queryServiceTypeFindAll() altogether. However, when I successfully deploy the web service, the generated WSDL and mapping file make no mention of the Select class, so I don't see why there's a problem with that class when more than one of my List types extends it.
I've been searching for a solution to this problem for most of the week to no avail. Any thoughts? Thanks.

Answer 1

Joel,
You may have some encounter some backward incompatibility between the code generated for 10.1.3.2, when you run the application in the embedded container and when you deploy on a remote instance using 10.1.3.1.
It may be worth trying to re-assemble the application using JDev 10.1.3.1 or use the command line (or ant integration) of WSA to build the application that you target at the 10.1.3.1 instance using the same version of the tooling.
Chapter 18 of the user guide provide details about ant commands.

You may also want to report this using the metalink/support channel, so that the potential bugs behind this can be addressed for you.
