RMI (remote method invocation) Java

[Stijn_vdd]

Hi,

First of all, my English isn't that good, so i'll try to write without spelling errors.

I Followed following tutorial for setup a RMI connection (http://download.oracle.com/javase/1....o-world.html#4)

The first time when i ran the client and the server (on the same computer) it all worked fine.
The second time that i tried to run the server following error occurd:

First i thought it was because the name "Hello" already was registered to the rmiregistry, But trying with "Hallo2" didn't work.

Does someone know a possible solution ?

Kind regards!

It seems either
1. you have not specified RMI Server codebase path, or
2. your codebase jar is not getting picked up by jvm.

provide "-Djava.rmi.server.codebase=file:/<path to ur codebase>" as an argument while running the server and client
