You will first need to attempt to serve him at his last known address and prove that you have done so by filing and affidavit with evidence of your attempts to serve him, and your attempts at retrieving his address.

My year of separation completed on August 30th, 2008, my 35th birthday. Since then, I have spoken with my ex 4 times by phone, each time from a different phone number and a different location/state.
He has promised to get me a permanent mailing address so that I can serve him papers, but has yet to do so after more than 4 months. I really don’t think he wants to be divorced.
I have searched the forums, going back 10 pages, and found the information on serving by publication. I would like to file myself, but I have noticed that I have to include an address for him.
What are my options if he has no address, no permanent place of work, etc?
Thank you very much for any suggestions you can offer.
