The SOAP monitor is now working fine in my Axis2 web service. Many thanks to Robert Lazasrki for the assistance.
It turns out that the port error occurs only when running Tomcat 5.5 within Eclipse. Also the messages referring to a null handler for the SOAP monitor phase can be ignored. One other confusing aspect of getting this running is that the port specified in the web.xml file is NOT the port used in the URL of the SOAP monitor. For example, port 5001 was defined in the web.xml file but the URL is: http://localhost:8080/service_name/SOAPMonitor I was trying: http://localhost:5001/service_name/SOAPMonitor Thanks, T robert lazarski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Search for 'Deploying module' - you may be doing it twice as that's the only thing I can think of. Sure you only have one war with axis2 ? When you shutdown tomcat, is java.exe still holding on to ports 5001, 3901 etc ? BTW, I just tested the soapmonitor with the 1.3 branch nightly from yesterday and it can use other ports like 3901 just fine. I'll improve the debugging a little to indicate what port its going to bind to. A suggestion is to use the 1.3 branch war as I mentioned last post - it'll be final shortly and as I said with that code I can't reproduce your problem. Also, sure, send me the logs off list and maybe I'll see something.
