Issue

• I've ported an application to JBoss EAP 6 and it needs to communicate with an application on JBoss 5 via RMI. I get the following exception when running it on JBoss EAP 6. We use many JBoss 4/5 jar files in this app (as mentioned in the stacktrace).

• We created a eap5-client module in JBoss EAP 6, so that our application which calls JBoss EAP 5 can call it, but now we are getting a class cast exception when trying to connect:
