Questions about the Wiki Page WSServerEJB

[bsheward]

Hi,

I have a couple of questions about the WSServerEJB Wiki Page (http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=WSServerEJB).

There is a section that states:

When you deploy the jar that contains all the artifacts we just taked about, you should see something like this
in the JBoss console


14:49:49,656 INFO [EjbModule] Deploying OrganizationSLSB
14:49:49,906 INFO [EJBDeployer] Deployed: file:/.../server/default/deploy/samples-server-ejb.jar
14:49:49,921 INFO [WSDLFilePublisher] WSDL published to: file:/.../server/default/data/wsdl/samples-server-ejb.jar/OrganizationServiceEJB.wsdl
14:49:50,062 INFO [AxisService] WSDD published to: ...\server\default\data\wsdl\samples-server-ejb.jar\Organization.wsdd
14:49:50,062 INFO [AxisService] Web Service deployed: http://TDDELL:8080/samples-server-ejb/Organization

Firstly, what type of JAR are we talking about? An EAR, WAR or a straight JAR? I guess I'm also asking whether the WSDL files, jaxrpc-mapping.xml, webservices.xml files etc need to be in a jar file within the ear, or in the ear file itself.

Secondly, what is the OrganizationSLSB that is mentioned?

From the log output, it seems like there are no EAR files used, just JAR files in the deploy directory. I'm trying to understand the structure of where all the WSEE files should go.

Thanks and Regards,

Barry

Hi Barry,

Basic structure of JAR is:

META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
META-INF/webservices.xml
META-INF/jboss.xml
META-INF/ejb-jar.xml
META-INF/jaxrpc-mapping.xml
META-INF/wsdl/servicesfilename.wsdl

Followed by all the packages and classes.

http://www.dcl.hpi.uni-potsdam.de/research/asg/ws4ejb/ has a diagram schematic showing this structure.

Also the stateless session bean, OrganizationSLSB is the implementation class for the service endpoint interface listed on the WIKI page. It contains the actual code for the method getContactInfo.

HTH, Claire.

Claire,

Thanks. I'm now able to call a really simple web service.

I think the problem was that I had a lot of these files at the EAR level, rather than the JAR level. Once I changed things to:

test.ear
test.ear/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
test.ear/META-INF/application.xml
test.ear/test.jar
test.ear/test.jar/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
test.ear/test.jar/META-INF/webservices.xml
test.ear/test.jar/META-INF/jboss.xml
test.ear/test.jar/META-INF/ejb-jar.xml
test.ear/test.jar/META-INF/jaxrpc-mapping.xml
test.ear/test.jar/META-INF/wsdl/servicesfilename.wsdl

things started working!

Thanks for your help,

Barry
