session bean access with soap

[lagar]

hello

I have a session bean and want to generate
a SOAP Web Service for this bean.

I know that I have to write a webservices.xml file.
is there any documentation on this ? what exactly to put in
this file and what else is necessary to export a session bean (stateless)
as a soap service ??

a step by step tutorial would be great .

thanks in advance

I have found out that Axis has to be installed, and a .wsdd file has to be created.

This is my file

<deployment xmlns="http://xml.apache.org/axis/wsdd/" xmlns:java="http://xml.apache.org/axis/wsdd/providers/java">












I have executed

java org.apache.axis.client.AdminClient webservice.wsdd

And it seems that the WebService is created. But when I go to

http://localhost:8080/axis/servlet/AxisServlet

It says java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.redsoftsolutions.interactiveforms.ejb.control.ControlRemote

This class has been deployed within a ear file.

Does anybody know what I am doing wrong?

Thanks!!

remember to package your remote with the client ie axis/WEB-INF/classes or in axis/WEB-INF/lib

the wsdd should look like
