I configure my WEB-INF/web.xml as following

~~~

<servlet>

    <servlet-name>HelloWorldService</servlet-name>

    <servlet-class>us.gov.treasury.irs.srv.test.HelloWorldWs</servlet-class> 

</servlet>

<servlet-mapping>

    <servlet-name>HelloWorldService</servlet-name>

    <url-pattern>/test/HelloWorldService</url-pattern>

</servlet-mapping> 

~~~

and have following configured in WEB-INF/jbossws-cxf.xml

Make sure the Webservices subsystem is not removed from your standalone.xml or domain.xml. Also make sure you aren't excluding the webservices subsystem in your deployment's in jboss-deployment-structure.xml. Are you packaging your own implementation of a WS Stack?

Mustafa,

Webservices 1.2 is included as subsystem in standalone.xml and I'm not using jboss-deployment-structure.xml and I'm trying to use JBoss CXF for WS Stack.
