Jboss-4.0.2 Client

[gayathiri]

I have deployed the webservice in jboss-4.0.2 successfully.
I tried to run a client using this code

String wsdlLocation="http://192.10.10.58:8080/availablewebsites/?wsdl";
 java.net.URL target=new java.net.URL(wsdlLocation);
 AvailableWebsiteEndpointSoapBindingStub bindingStub= (AvailableWebsiteEndpointSoapBindingStub)new AvailableWebsiteEndpointServiceLocator().getAvailableWebsiteEndpoint(target);

When i run it i m getting the following exception

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

I have placed the configuration file properly.Pls help me

What you are missing is the "axis-client-config.wsdd" file. It should be available in the jboss-ws4ee-client.jar available in the client directory of your JBoss instance. So put it on your classpath (I mean the jar file).

Looking at your code, it looks like you are using stubs on the client side. JBossWS does not support stubs for webservices. Try to look at dynamic proxy or the DII way of doing client programming.

[gayathiri]

As you said i tried the client using the dynamic proxy method...

ServiceFactory serviceFactory = ServiceFactory.newInstance();
 Service service = serviceFactory.createService(new URL(WSDL_LOCATION), serviceQN);

 AvailableWebsiteEndpoint myProxy = (AvailableWebsiteEndpoint)service.getPort(portQN, AvailableWebsiteEndpoint.class);

I am using jboss-4.0.2,jdk1.5 but still it is trowing exceptions

java.rmi.RemoteException: null; nested exception is:

there is no exceptions in the server side....

Thanks

Looks like you are using XercesImpl.jar that is available with jwsdp on the client side. Try to use the one from jboss-instance/lib/endorsed. Looking at the stacktrace, seems like it is failing because some property that the sax parser is expecting is null.

On a related note, have you deployed the service interface as part of a J2EE client? If you do not know what I am talking about, then it may be easier for you to use the DII approach.

Looks like it is this issue again: -

Hi guyathiri,

JBoss 4.0.2
JDK/JRE 1.5
Win Adv Serv 2003

I am using the following code which calls the service using the DII method to invoke web services. I supply a WSDL URL and it manages to create the call and get a return value for me. Perhaps if you haven't tried this approach it may work for you.

Maybe someone can tell me *how* this code works? What model is it using? Does this code go against any JBoss operation specifics/standards?

-Claire.

import javax.xml.namespace.*; //QName
import javax.xml.rpc.*; //Service, ServiceFactory
import java.net.URL;
import java.rmi.RemoteException;

..........

URL url = new URL("http://machinename:8080/hellows-ejb/hello?wsdl");
QName qname = new QName("urn:MyHello", "HelloService");
ServiceFactory factory = ServiceFactory.newInstance();
Service service = factory.createService(url, qname);

Call call = (Call)service.createCall(new QName("urn:MyHello", "HelloServiceEndpoint"), "sayHello");
String msg = (String) call.invoke(new Object[]{});
System.out.println(msg);

[gayathiri]

Claire,
I tried this code ...throws this exception

AxisFault

 faultSubcode:

Darran is correct, this is JBWS-187. This issue is already fixed in the branch, thanks to his patch, and will be included in the 4.0.3 release (any day now). Note this issue seems to only affect JDK1.5.

-Claire.

You are using the DII methodology for invoking the webservice. The only problem with this is that you have to manually configure all of the type mappings. There is also no way in the JAX-RPC api to pass a jaxrpc-mapping file using DII. We do have a proprietary method in our ServiceImpl class that allows it should you need to thise, but IMO you are better off using a standard J2EE webservices client.

Shall i download jboss-4.0.3 today ?

[thomas.diesler]

It is not released yet, web services is complete. You can try it out from cvs

cvs co -r Branch_4_0 jboss-4.0
