Hi Johann,
that is strange indeed.
I do have jaxrpc.jar and it does contain a class Service,
javax.xml.rpc.Service to be precise.
But may be here is the problem, my Servlet contains the following
imports:
import java.io.*;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
import java.net.URL;
import org.apache.axis.client.Call;
import org.apache.axis.client.Service;
Doesn't that mean that it interprets the Service in the code
as being of class org.apache.axis.client.Service instead of
javax.xml.rpc.Service as I intended (though in these details
I am not completely sure what I really intend) ?
The axis Service class is also there (in axis.jar).
Thanks & regards,
Juliane.

This message indicates the jaxrpc jar is missing. Axis needs the Service
interface (of jaxrpc) to implement the Service class.

yes, generaly that's the way
