ClassNotFoundException when running AxisServlet

[mbabauer]

If I attempt to run AxisServelt on my newly deployed WSR file, I get the following:

Does anyone know what class it may be looking for? The conected EJB is in a separate JAR package from the WSR file (did not know where to put it), and the JAR is loaded first. I looked at the log4j.xml to see if I could figure out how to get some additional logging in Axis (seems to log nothing at all), but could not.


Thanks in advance...

1) Are you using your own version of Axis?
2) I would like to see your jndi.properties file. You seem to connecting using Sun's JNDI provider. You need to be connecting via jnp
http://www.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=JNDIClientConfiguration
3) To change the logging level, go to /server/<your config>/conf/log4j.xml and add a category for org.apache.axis In your case, look under /server/all/conf/log4j.xml considering that you are starting JBoss in the "all" configuration.

1) At first I was, but then I switched to using the one bundled with JBoss 3.2.5.

2) Here is my jndi.properties:

# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING
#
java.naming.factory.initial=org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory
java.naming.factory.url.pkgs=org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces

3) No, I actually copied the jboss-net.sar folder over to my default server instance.


Thanks,

I updated the jndi.properties as instructed, but it did not seem to cure the problem.

Upon further examination, I noticed XDoclet did not generate the jndiURL or the jndiContextClass. Both fields in the web-service.xml are empty (as is the service name, which I have a bug issued with the XDoclet team for). I am not quite sure what should be in there, though.
