Looks like there is another jar implementing the javax.xml.rpc package in the classpath.
If you copied jaxrpc and axis jars in your webapps context classpath (i.e. WEB-INF/lib) folder, do check what other jars you have and see if any of them have implementation of this package.
Hope that helps,

Hi,
Your import are correct, just the jaxrpc.jar is a dependance for Axis.
jaxrpc.jar must be in the same directory as axis.jar etc.
