Wildfly Remote EJB Invocation

Question

I am trying to invoke a stateless EJB, deployed on a remote server. I can invoke the bean from my local JBoss environment but when I change the remote.connection.default.host to the remote machine's host, my client code does not work.

This is my jboss-ejb-client.properties:

endpoint.name=client-endpoint

remote.connectionprovider.create.options.org.xnio.Options.SSL_ENABLED=false

remote.connections=default

remote.connection.default.host=SERVERIP/HOSTNAME
remote.connection.default.port=8080
remote.connection.default.connect.options.org.xnio.Options.SASL_POLICY_NOANONYMOUS=false
remote.connection.default.username=username
remote.connection.default.password=Password

And my client code looks like this:

Properties properties = new Properties();
properties.put(Context.URL_PKG_PREFIXES, "org.jboss.ejb.client.naming");
String jndi = "jndi_name";
Context context = new InitialContext(properties);
obj = context.lookup(jndi);

Please help.

Thanks all. Jack.

This answer may be late but I faced the same problem, none of the above answers helped me, to solve this problem, refer the following : http://blog.jonasbandi.net/2013/08/jboss-remote-ejb-invocation-unexpected.html

The code that works for me is as below:

Properties jndiProperties=new Properties();
    jndiProperties.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "org.jboss.naming.remote.client.InitialContextFactory");
    jndiProperties.put(Context.URL_PKG_PREFIXES, "org.jboss.ejb.client.naming");
    jndiProperties.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "http-remoting://127.0.0.1:8080/");
    //This property is important for remote resolving
    jndiProperties.put("jboss.naming.client.ejb.context", true);
    //This propert is not important for remote resolving
    jndiProperties.put("org.jboss.ejb.client.scoped.context", "true");

    Context context=new InitialContext(jndiProperties);

     */

    //None of the above names work for remote EJb resolution ONLY THIS WORKS - 
    //"/JEETest_Project/EJBTest_Project/GenericStateless!test.stateless.GenericStateless"

    GenericStateless bean=(GenericStateless)context.lookup("/JEETest_Project/EJBTest_Project/GenericStateless!test.stateless.GenericStateless");

    //GenericStateless bean=(GenericStateless)c.lookup("GenericStateless!test.stateless.GenericStateless");
    System.out.println(bean.getInt());
