Connecting a remote JMS client to GlassFish 3
glassfish, jms, remote-access
Solution
Ok. I found a solution. See here for details, but the short answer is that I needed to add two jars to the classpath: imqjmsra.jar and imqbroker.jar. These were available inside a rar called imqjmsra.rar which can be found under glassfish's mq directory. I had to extract the two jars from this rar!
Problem
I am trying to connect to GlassFish 3's JMS service from a standalone remote client. However I am getting a java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.sun.messaging.jms.ra.ResourceAdapter. Any ideas on how to fix this? Here's my setup so far: Glassfish 3 JMS Service in LOCAL mode (I am assuming that EMBEDED mode will not work in this case because it bypasses the network stack) JNDI properties are specified as follows: java.naming.factory.initial=com.sun.enterprise.naming.SerialInitContextFactory java.naming.factory.url.pkgs=com.sun.enterprise.naming java.naming.factory.state=com.sun.corba.ee.impl.presentation.rmi.JNDIStateFactoryImpl gf-client-module.jar (in GLASSFISH_HOME/modules) added to the standalone application's classpath. Also tried adding other jars present in the modules directory (such as jms-core.jar), but still getting the same ClassNotFoundException. Any help would be much appreciated.
