I'm so sorry to repost my original question from here. I didnt notice this JBoss thread earlier. My apology !
Anyroad .. Here's my posting..
I've just downloaded and tried out Hermes 1.12 on JBoss 3.0.8 just as the jboss tutorial video suggested, like adding the new provider with all the needed jboss jars from the client/ and lib/ of the JBoss directory. And then i continued editing the JNDI properties.
After that, i double clicked the JBoss on the 'contexts' tree on the left panel, and it says it cannot instantiate exception, and this is the output from the log file in the bin/ directory.

Anyroad, i'm using Java 6 on suse linux 10.2 ..
And i've also checked in the jnp-client.jar that the class is in fact existing.
I've also tried removing all the jars, reading them all again.
And i've also tried removing the .hermes/ in my home dir ..
But still gave the same error message ..
Can anyone please help me tackle this issue ?
Regards,
Albert Kam
