Errors (and fixes) for Jboss-4.0.0RC1 ws4ee module

[dpocock]

a) The axis validator screen reports that wsdl4j.jar is missing.
I found the file wsdl4j.jar in jboss-root/client and copied it to jboss-root/lib/endorsed (it contain's javax.* classes, so it has to be under endorsed) and the error went away. This is a problem that may only be visible to Java 1.4 users

b) The org.jboss.net.ws4ee.server.EJBProxyFactoryImpl error still appears, even though the jboss.net stuff seems to have gone completely from this release.

c) I get the following when I try to access http://localhost:8080/ws4ee/services/Version?wsdl:
AXIS error

Sorry, something seems to have gone wrong... here are the details:

Fault - java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/xml/namespace/QName; nested exception is:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/xml/namespace/QName

I haven't figured out how to fix that yet.

d) now that jboss.net is gone, a lot of the online tutorials on using xdoclet to generate web services artifacts for deployment in jboss have become redundant. Therefore, I think it is of paramount importance that someone posts a current example in a prominent location, so that it will be picked up by Google. I imagine some people will be trying these other methods and wondering why nothing works.

Item (c) in my original posting can be resolved by moving namespace.jar from the directory jboss-root/lib to jboss-root/lib/endorsed

These problems were experienced while running J2SDK/JRE 1.4.2_05 from Sun.

Please see the wiki on a detailed description on how to use JBossWS and how to switch between JBossWS/JBoss.NET

Yes, I did find the Wiki last night some time after posting my original message.

Thank you for providing the samples - following those examples I did finally manage to get my bean working with Jboss.

However, I believe the issue with library locations is not addressed in the Wiki.
