I am seeing a strange problem:
I have a linux machine, installed JDK1.6 on that machine, and some business went on, and some days later had to change the IP address of the machine. and now after some months… i am trying to get some spring application to work… and it seems the RMI Server is starting at my old ip address…
21:12:45,412 DEBUG [org.springframework.remoting.rmi.RmiServiceExporter] RMI registry access threw exception java.rmi.ConnectIOException: Exception creating connection to: 192.168.13.55; nested exception is: java.net.SocketException: Network is unreachable at sun.rmi.transport.tcp.TCPEndpoint.newSocket(TCPEndpoint.java:614) at sun.rmi.transport.tcp.TCPChannel.createConnection(TCPChannel.java:198) at sun.rmi.transport.tcp.TCPChannel.newConnection(TCPChannel.java:184) at sun.rmi.server.UnicastRef.newCall(UnicastRef.java:322) at sun.rmi.registry.RegistryImpl_Stub.list(Unknown Source) at org.springframework.remoting.rmi.RmiServiceExporter.testRegistry(RmiServiceExporter.java:411) at org.springframework.remoting.rmi.RmiServiceExporter.getRegistry(RmiServiceExporter.java:391) can somone explain the process or shed some light on what is going on here, or might be going on here.
ok, thanks for the response… i really appreciate that…but i was probably too drunk to notice the entries in my /etc/hosts file were binding my hostname to the old IP address…so as soon as i removed that…things worked like a charm.
