 I don't know whether anyone has gotten JDMK3.0 to run with kaffe and
in fact I don't even know what JDMK is, but I can tell you what the
message above means.  It means that an exception was thrown inside
a Method.invoke().  This exception is packaged inside a InvocationTargetExc.
If you had the source, (I assume you don't since it's a com.sun.  package, 
though I might be wrong), you could extract the exception and print its 
backtrace; then you'd know exactly where the actual failure occurred.
