So, I'm doing the following:

1. running 'start rmiregistry' from the windows command line (cli). No issues are noted here, however, is there some way of confirming that no errors have occurred?

2. starting another cli session and running 'start java ProductServer'

NOTE: The .class files are compiled successfully within the directory.
Product is an interface not a class (see Product.java below).

Try

start java -cp . ProductServer

Cheers. Keith.

doesn't work

[corlettk]

doesn't work

Care to be a little more forthcoming?

C'mon for FFS a "senior member" should know the drill by now. If you ask for help it's encumbent upon you to provide as much pertintant information as possible, to allow the helper(s) to identify the problem.

"It doesn't work" don't tell me diddy.

I'm out. GL.

Cheers. Keith.

Sorry about that; I think I was in the middle of the process coz after a while the error was displayed as:

The ProductServer just doesn't start on its own, it needs a few services to run (I guess...sorry I might be a senior member but I'm still learning). So, I compiled the following batch file:

run_demo.bat
@echo off
rem demonstrates the use of calling a remote method
rem javac Product*.java
rmic -v1.2 ProductImpl 2> rmic.error.log
start rmiregistry 2>>rmic.error.log
start java ProductServer 2> ProductServer.log
java ProductClient 
pause

I've noted that the last line gives me an error unless I execute it on its own (i.e. open the console window and run java ProductClient separately:
javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: toaster
at com.sun.jndi.rmi.registry.RegistryContext.lookup(U nknown Source)
at com.sun.jndi.toolkit.url.GenericURLContext.lookup( Unknown Source)
at javax.naming.InitialContext.lookup(Unknown Source)
at ProductClient.main(ProductClient.java:35)
Press any key to continue . . .

@jon80, please use an appropriate title next time. And also I believe that since you are dealing here in the forum for a long time, you know the best way to present your question. Take that serious jon80.

[jon80]

...sorry about that I simply forgot

[Eranga]

...sorry about that I simply forgot

Seems it's happen to you every time.

[jon80]

Thank you for your rantful comments.

[angryboy]

Thank you for your rantful comments.

I take this to mean you are not coming back then. Good luck in finding a new forum. Since most members here are also members of the sun forum, maybe you'll have better luck with those boy-lovers at java ranch.

[jon80]

perhaps I was not clear; I only meant that it is irrelevant. I don't do mistakes on purpose duh!
