    JBoss Axis deployment question

      Hi everybody:

      I am new to web services. I am trying to learn to create web service using Jboss 3.2.4 on Winddows XP box.

      I am trying to deploy the example3 from Axis User Guide's examples. This essentially exposes a simple Java class as a web service. I have everything compiling.

      What I am not sure about is where does everything go. I copied the Myservice.class into the \deploy\jboss-net.sar\jboss-net.war\WEB-INF\classes directory. I am presuming that is where it needs to go.

      Also I altered the all\deploy\jboss-net.sar\jmx-net.wsr\META-INF\web-service.xml to expose my class. So my final web-service.xml looks like this

      <!-- Descriptor for the JMX Adaptor Web Service -->

<deployment
 name="JMX.net"
 targetNameSpace="http://net.jboss.org/jmx"
 xmlns="http://xml.apache.org/axis/wsdd/"
 xmlns:jmx="http://net.jboss.org/jmx"
 xmlns:java="http://xml.apache.org/axis/wsdd/providers/java">

 <documentation>An example JMX-based Web Service</documentation>

 <!-- this service hits a connector web service that re-exposes the complete MBeanServer API -->
 <service name="RemoteAdaptor" provider="Handler">
 <parameter name="handlerClass" value="org.jboss.net.jmx.server.MBeanProvider"/>
 <parameter name="ObjectName" value="jboss.net:service=Adaptor"/>
 <parameter name="allowedMethods" value="invoke isRegistered"/>
 <parameter name="allowedReadAttributes" value="DefaultDomain"/>
 </service>

 <!-- My addition -->
 <service name="MyService" provider="java:RPC">
 <parameter name="className" value="samples.userguide.example3.MyService"/>
 <parameter name="allowedMethods" value="*"/>
 </service>


 <typeMapping qname="jmx:ObjectNameType"
 type="java:javax.management.ObjectName"
 serializer="org.jboss.net.jmx.adaptor.ObjectNameSerializerFactory"
 deserializer="org.jboss.net.jmx.adaptor.ObjectNameDeserializerFactory"
 encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"/>

 <typeMapping qname="jmx:AttributeType"
 type="java:javax.management.Attribute"
 serializer="org.jboss.net.jmx.adaptor.AttributeSerializerFactory"
 deserializer="org.jboss.net.jmx.adaptor.AttributeDeserializerFactory"
 encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"/>

</deployment>


      Is that all there is deploy a web service to JBoss?

      Now I have a client that tries to call this web-service. But I am not having any luck. So I don't know where the problem is.

      My client code is as follows 

      package samples.userguide.example3;

import org.apache.axis.client.Call;
import org.apache.axis.client.Service;
import org.apache.axis.encoding.XMLType;
import org.apache.axis.utils.Options;

import javax.xml.namespace.QName;
import javax.xml.rpc.ParameterMode;

public class Client
{
 public static void main(String [] args)
 {
 try {
 Options options = new Options(args);

 String endpointURL = options.getURL();
 String textToSend;

 args = options.getRemainingArgs();
 if ((args == null) || (args.length < 1)) {
 textToSend = "<nothing>";
 } else {
 textToSend = args[0];
 }

 Service service = new Service();
 Call call = (Call) service.createCall();

 call.setTargetEndpointAddress( new java.net.URL(endpointURL) );
 call.setOperationName( new QName("http://localhost:8080", "serviceMethod") );
 call.addParameter( "arg1", XMLType.XSD_STRING, ParameterMode.IN);
 call.setReturnType( org.apache.axis.encoding.XMLType.XSD_STRING );

 String ret = (String) call.invoke( new Object[] { textToSend } );

 System.out.println("You typed : " + ret);
 } catch (Exception e) {
 System.err.println(e.toString());
 }
 }
}


      When I run this code I keep getting an error as follows 
      (404)/axis/servlet/AxisServlet


      Since I was not having much luck, I tried to run tcpmon and route my request thru that. And here is the request that gets sent out 

      POST /axis/servlet/AxisServlet HTTP/1.0

Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8

Accept: application/soap+xml, application/dime, multipart/related, text/*

User-Agent: Axis/1.1

 </ns1:serviceMethod>
 </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>


      Could somebody give me some pointers on what I need to do to get this working?

      Thank you.
