J2EE tutorial web services client throws

[taciano]

Hi

I'm using JBoss 4.0.4.GA, with the "all" installation option. I'm going through the "Getting Started with JBoss 4.0" guide (release 5).

When I reach the topic "Running the Web Service Client" (item 5.3 of the doc) and run the command "ant -f jboss-build.xml run-ws" a "java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: setProperty must be overridden in subclasses of SOAPMessage" exception is thrown.

The full stack trace is as follows:

C:\temp\j2eetutorial14\examples\bank>ant -f jboss-build.xml run-ws
Buildfile: jboss-build.xml

Everything was running smoothly up to this point. I found a bug reported on JIRA about this (http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBWS-1126?page=all), but apparently it was considered a CLASSPATH problem. Well, if there is actually a CLASSPATH problem, I'd like to know what must be done to the default JBoss configuration to make it work.

Thanks in advance,

Hi

The problem was fixed. I was using the JDK 1.6.0 beta. When I switched back to JDK 1.5.0 everything worked fine.

Just to let the community know this can happen.

Make sure you use the SAAJ imlementation that comes with jboss-saaj.jar

I ran the WS tutorial exactly as described by the "Getting Started" guide. All classpath entries are as defined by the scripts, I didn't change anything. The JDK, JBoss and the tutorial were installed using the standard procedure. My machine has no customization of the classpath.

My conclusion is that either the tutorial is not meant to be run using JDK 6.0 beta or the classpath must be customized for it to work. If one of these are true, a think it would be worthy to include it on the tutorial text.
