Hi Stefan,
Thanks for the help. I will put further questions to the user list. Sorry
about that.
I am using the RMI implementation to aquire a repository instance so this
maybe my problem.
The repository is acquired through JNDI and then I simply acquire the
correct node using session.getRootNode(); then node.getNode("myNode");
Hopefully this will help narrow the problem down.
Shane.

your code looks fine so far. if you are directly accessing a local
jackrabbit
instance i guess the error must be in that part of the code that you
didn't
provide. if you're accessing a remote jackrabbit instance through RMI
there could be an issue wrt stream handling in the RMI implementation.
in any case it would be good if you could provide a complete code sample.
btw: the users list would be more appropriate for such questions.
cheers
