Hello,
I followed your tip and programmed a RMI Server, which is initiateed by the
OpenCmsHTTPServlet class when the opencms servlet it called. The server is
up
and running.
However when I access the server and want to get the OpenCms object I get
the following message:
System RemoteExceptionjava.rmi.UnmarshalException: error unmarshalling
return; nested exception is:
java.io.WriteAbortedException: writing aborted;
java.io.NotSerializableException: com.opencms.core.OpenCms
The OpenCms object does indeed not implement the Serializable interface. My
question now is, when I modify the OpenCms class file and add that it
implements Serializable will it work then and will it work properly?
Is the problem another one and how can I fix it. I am soooo close and there
should be a way...
Cheers,
Ralf
