Error

While disconnected from internet, my BPEL process which is deployed as webservice over JBossWS fails to deploy with following exception -

09:48:03,236 ERROR [STDERR] Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException

WSDL setup - probable cause

My BPEL WSDL file imports another WSDL and also declares with schema import in it.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<definitions xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap/" xmlns:evt="http://www.eclipse.org/alf/schema/EventBase/1" xmlns:wsse="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-secext-1.0.xsd" xmlns:tns="http://flow" xmlns:wsa="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2004/08/addressing" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:plnk="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2003/05/partner-link/" xmlns:bpws="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2003/03/business-process/" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" name="AlfServiceFlow" targetNamespace="http://flow" xmlns="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/" xmlns:Nov28appALFServiceFlow="http://www.eclipse.org/alf/schema/EventBase/1">

 <xs:element name="test" type="xs:gMonth" />
</xs:schema>
 </types>

The imported WSDL includes another XSD file.

During my debugging I found that JBossWS generates this second XSD file under <Jboss-home>\tmp\JBossWS location but it fails to generate the oasis security XSD which is originally under same folder as main WSDL file.

Can someone please confirm if this is a bug in JBossWS?

When I copy the missing XSD file manually under tmp location, it finds it fine.

Thank you,
