Local fix

  • Ensure that both server and client use either EJB 2.0 stubs/ties
    of EJB 3.0 stubs/ties.
    

Problem summary

  • The ORB code has been modified to detect the incompatibility
    between EJB 2.0 and EJB 3.0 early and throw an exception
    indicative of the same.
    

Problem conclusion

  • This APAR will be fixed in the following Java Releases:
       7    SR7       (7.0.7.0)
       6    SR16      (6.0.16.0)
       6 R1 SR8       (6.1.8.0)
       7 R1 SR1       (7.1.1.0)
    .
    A new MARSHAL exception will be logged to indicate the mismatch
    -
    org.omg.CORBA.MARSHAL: Possible incompatibility between Stub and
    Tie at offset fffffffe
