java: Error initializing PCKS11 provider getting IOException C_GetFunctionList == NULL

I'm trying to write a Java application for digitally signing documents using a bit4Id miniLector token.
I'm in a Linux development environment.
The token is correctly installed, I can sign my documents also with the app downloaded from the manufacturer, but I have to write a new one for other purposes. The driver used is located at
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/engines-1.1/pkcs11.so
I'm stuck with this error:
/usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.8.0_111/bin/java ...
Exception in thread "main" java.security.ProviderException: Initialization failed

The provider is listed in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/security/java.security file as:
security.provider.10=sun.security.pkcs11.SunPKCS11
The code behaving this way is this:
String configFile = "/opt/bar/cfg/pkcs11.cfg";
Provider provider = new sun.security.pkcs11.SunPKCS11(configFile); <-- line 83
The needed libraries are all imported by my IDE and I have no compile/link errors.
I didn't find this exact type of error in hours of googling.
If you need any further information let me know, any kind help is very appreciated, thanks.
For visual clarity I add all missing information with respect to the original question here below
Updates
Content of the pkcs11.cfg file:
$ cat /opt/bar/cfg/pkcs11.cfg
name="bit4id miniLector-EVO"
library=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/engines-1.1/pkcs11.so

Ok, I got it.
The problem is the driver.
Replacing
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/engines-1.1/pkcs11.so
with
/opt/Firma4NG/System/Firma4NG_Linux/Firma4/drivers/mu-x64/libbit4xpki.so
that is one of the manufacturer's driver, now I can go further and, for example, dumping all info about the card:
Information for provider SunPKCS11-bit4id miniLector-EVO
Library info:
cryptokiVersion: 2.20
manufacturerID: bit4id srl
flags: 0
libraryDescription: bit4id PKCS#11
libraryVersion: 1.02

This question can be closed.

Any Idea what might could be the issue here?

Well, tried several OAuth libs linked on oaut.net but got none to work, so I ended up in doing it low-level with URLConnection and RegEx parsing.
Side-note: I also tried the other libs on YouTube, but only could Googles own implementation to work on it.

What causes elusive: NoSuchMethodError: org.jboss.remoting3.Remoting.createEndpoint()?

Many people have asked for help with this error:
javax.naming.NamingException: Failed to create remoting connection [Root exception is java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.jboss.remoting3.Remoting.createEndpoint(Ljava/lang/String;Lorg/xnio/OptionMap;)Lorg/jboss/remoting3/Endpoint;]
at
org.jboss.naming.remote.client.ClientUtil.namingException(ClientUtil.java:51)
at
org.jboss.naming.remote.client.InitialContextFactory.getInitialContext(InitialContextFactory.java:152)
at
javax.naming.spi.NamingManager.getInitialContext(Unknown Source)
...
But no request I can find ever provides a conclusive answer. Just suggestions to tinker with jars.
I believe that’s because there’s an inconsistency in the structure of Jboss interfaces. Can anyone confirm or correct that?
Here’s my code that throws the above error:
final private Properties env = new Properties() {
{put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "org.jboss.naming.remote.client.InitialContextFactory");
put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "http-remoting://localhost:9990");
put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, "myID");
put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "myPassword");
put("jboss.naming.client.ejb.context", true);
}
};
/****************************************************
* myID & myPassword open the Admin GUI for wildfly *
* on localhost:9990 *
****************************************************/
Context ctx = new InitialContext(this.env);
To determine the required jars I removed all jars from the Build path.
Then I ran my program till all ClassNotFoundException were gone.
First Error
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:
org.jboss.naming.remote.client.InitialContextFactory]
Added jboss-remote-naming-1.0.7.final.jar to class path
Second Error
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
org/jboss/logging/Logger
Added jboss-logging.jar
Third Error
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
org/xnio/Options
Added xnio-api-3.0.7.ga.jar
Fourth Error
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
org/jboss/remoting3/spi/ConnectionProviderFactory
Added jboss-remoting-3.jar
Fifth Error
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
org/jboss/ejb/client/EJBClientContextIdentifier
Added jboss-ejb-client-1.0.19.final.jar
FINAL AND FATAL ERROR
(Note: All NoClassDefFoundError have been cleared)
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.jboss.remoting3.Remoting.createEndpoint(Ljava/lang/String;Lorg/xnio/OptionMap;)Lorg/jboss/remoting3/Endpoint;]
Using Eclipse’s Project Explorer I verified:
a. jboss-remoting3.jar has the org.jboss.remoting3.Remoting Class.
b. That Remoting Class has this Method:
public Endpoint createEndpoint (String, Executor, OptionMap)
Note it calls for 3 parameters.
BUT the FINAL FATAL ERROR above calls for
public Endpoint createEndpoint (String, OptionMap)
Note: it calls for 2 parameters. Hence the NoSuchMethodError.
Looking at the top lines in the stack trace, I guess
org.jboss.naming.remote.client.InitialContextFactory.getInitialContext() is trying to call org.jboss.remoting3.Remoting.createEndpoint() using 2 parameters, but org.jboss.remoting3.Remoting only defines createEndpoint() with a 3-paramater signature.
Is that supposed to even be possible?
A jar that says it has the org.jboss.remoting3 package whose Remoting class has a single createEndpoint() method with a 3-parameter signature, and another jar that says it has the org.jboss.remoting3 package whose Remoting class has another createEndpoint() method with a 2-parameter signature?
HELP!
I mean do I need to look through every org.jboss.remoting3 package to find one whose Remoting class has a 2 parameter createEnpoint() method?
Or am I missing something important.
I mean this does explain how many questions have been posted about this error:
javax.naming.NamingException: Failed to create remoting connection [Root exception is java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.jboss.remoting3.Remoting.createEndpoint(Ljava/lang/String;Lorg/xnio/OptionMap;)Lorg/jboss/remoting3/Endpoint;]
And explain why there is never a conclusive explanation or solution other than fiddling with jars and build path.
I mean getting an InitialContext from WildFly running on the same PC as the Java program should be a trivial process. But it hasn’t been. Maybe it's because of inconsistencies in the API.

Thanks to Christoph Böhme:
jboss-logging-3.1.4.GA.jar has an org.jboss.remeoting package with a Remoting class that has createEndpoint() with a 0, 2 and 3 parameter signature.
Replacing jboss-remoting-4.0.7.Final.jar with the above jar was all it required to clear the NoSuchMethodError.
Hope that helps others.

Log4J2 Factory Error when attempting to use SMTP Appender

Good afternoon,
When I attempt to use the SMTP Appender, I get an odd error in the console. The error appears to occur when the XML file is loaded, as it isn't logged via any output stream except stdout. The contents of the appender are as follows (and I have confirmed that the error is in this block of XML). I've removed our server information.
<SMTP name="Mailer">
<Subject>[ERROR] (software name) on ${hostName} has thrown a fatal error</Subject>
<To>(a valid email in the form of a#a.com)</To>
<From>(a valid email in the form of a#a.com)</From>
<SMTPHost>(The Internal IP address of a server in the form of 192.168.0.1)</SMTPHost>
<SMTPPort>587</SMTPPort>
<BufferSize>512</BufferSize>
</SMTP>
Whether or not it is referenced in a logger, I receive the following error immediately upon running the program and running getLogger from the log manager. I've removed a couple of the file names and replaced them with a rough description of what the file is doing at that point.

2015-05-19 19:08:18,819 ERROR Unable to locate appender Mailer for logger fatalerror
The details of the configuration are correct (I know it's a valid IP, etc) - they worked in log4j 1. The error log tells me virtually nothing about the error, so I am hoping someone has heard of this before. Thanks everyone!

This is the important line from your stacktrace:
Caused by: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: javax.mail.Session.setProtocolForAddress(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;)V
The setProtocolForAddress method has been part of JavaMail since version 1.4, so this suggests to me that you are using an old version of that JAR. If you are, try upgrading to a later version.

Note that log4j2 has many lookups, not just system properties. So you need to convert ${hostName} to ${sys:hostName}, and if you are using a lookup for the IP address, this may be the cause of the issue. (Try hardcoding all lookup values to exclude this possibility.)

JNDI with Active Directory PartialResultException

I am basically walking the LDAP tree in Active Directory.
At each level I query for "(objectClass=*)". When I do this on the root eg "dc=example,dc=com" I get the exception below. This works fine on our other LDAP instances. For some reason only on our Active Directory server I get this exception. I also get the same exception when using JXplorer on our Active Directory server.
From reading around online I found people saying you should turn on following, not sure what that means... So on my controls object (javax.naming.directory.SearchControls) that I pass with the query I call searchControls.setDerefLinkFlag(true). I also have tried setting it to false with the same result. Any a suggestions on what else could cause this? Maybe how I could fix it?
Note: In this post I changed the baseDn from dc=<my company domain> to example for my companies privacy.

So when I was creating my naming context with the method:
javax.naming.ldap.InitialLdapContext.InitialLdapContext(
Hashtable<?, ?> environment, Control[] connCtls)
In the argument environment there is a property with the name Context.REFERRAL and its value should be set to: follow. This was the setting that I needed.

If you get an exception while referral usage in follow (for example: connection timed out) you can use referral ignore but you dont want to get partial exception you can use 3268 port number instead of 389 this port is using global catalog for ldap. You can find info from following link;
