I agree. However, security risk is always there regardless you show your wsdl or not. Authentication and other security measures such as SSL/HTTPS need to be put in place to prevent malicious attacks to your web services. This is my opinion anyways. Gul

Yes it's the contract. But showing the contact to everybody means there is a security risk... Do you agree?

Thanks! But in these case,It just returns the wsdl file that I put into the META-INF folder of the .aar service file. I tried and I'm not able to empty the wsdl file because it will analyse the wsdl file when the servcie is deployed. What I really want it to hide the wsdl or just return nothing to the user if somebody request the url: http://myid/axis2/service/myService?wsdl Is this possible?
