Consume Webservice via an AXIS Client: ConfigurationExceptio

[adrian-o-matic]

Hi all,

I am using JBoss 4.0.0RC1 in the "all" configuration.

I tried to create a SOAP-Client via Axis. When I instantiate the Locator class, a get a ConfigurationException:

org.apache.axis.ConfigurationException: No engine configuration file - aborting!

But when I look into my deploy - directory, I find a "jboss-ws4ee.sar/META-INF" directory, which actually contains the axis-client-config.xml file.

What is then the reason, that axis cannot find the file ?

Found this at sourceforge:

The axis-client-config.xml lives in $JBOSS_HOME/client/jboss-
ws4ee-client.xml which must be on your classpath.

But I cannot find this file in the client directory. I only use the original axis-ws4ee.jar and do not mix it with the axis.jar.

How can this be solved then?

Kind regards

Adrian

Adrian, are trying JBossWs on the server and standalone Axis on the client? If not, have you looked at the examples on the wiki, what a JBossWS client lookes like? It does not have a Locator.

If you don't want to use JBossWS on the client but some other SOAP stack like Axis (which is perfectly ok because of WS interoperability) you should only have that client's jars on the classpath, so no jboss-ws4ee-client.jar.
