Cannot deploy a document style webservice on JBoss 4.0.2RC1

[mingweiwu]

Can anyone help? I tried to use JAX-RPC to deploy my web service.
I installed JBoss 4.0.2RC1 and I tried to deploy a very simple webservice on JBoss. I defined very simple java prg for a service. I got OK when I put style="rpc" in tag of WSDL. The WSDL was created by using Java2WSDL tool in JBoss. I tried to use "style=document" and WSDL was created by my ant scipt(just like the one for rpc style, and the tag includes my new part). I checked all the WEB-INF/*.xml (
jboss-web.xml, jaxrpc-mapping.xml,webservices.xml,web.xml), and they are same as the one for rpc style. But when I tried to start the Server with run.bat in default mode, only rpc style work; when I tried document style, the server complains "Cannot stattup webservice for: my.war" and said "org.jboss.deployment.DeploymentException: Cannot deploy webservices; - nested throwable: (java.lanag.NullPointerException)", all deployWebservices error message follows.
May I get a hint? I guess there is some setting either in WSDL or mapping files need to be changed for document-style.
Definitely need your helps! Thanks!

I was told not to use Java2WSDL but to use wscompile

There is a good tutorial on it at
https://jax-rpc.dev.java.net/whitepaper/1.1/index-part1.html#2.1

After I did all this work, I was able to get RPC working but not document. When I went to 4.0.2 RC1, the document literal started working.

Scott Jones:
Do you have some example to use wscompile? Does that mean I need to have a wsdl first before I can run wscompile? Can I just use the wsdl created by Java2WSDL?

Thanks!

I gen'd my wsdl off of the endpoint interface in my ejb. I the ant files that I utilize

You will need to download jwsdp 1.5 to get my examples to work. It contains some examples with it.

http://java.sun.com/webservices/jwsdp/index.jsp
Sun?s main page for jwsdp. Should be able to get to the download from this page

Also look at the wiki and the examples
http://www.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=JBossWS[/url]
