Hi, At first glance, it seems like your jar file which contains the Message class, is not visible to the Class Loader of your Web service. Please place your jar file in one of the following places.
If you are using stand-alone Axis2 instance, try placing your jar file in the $AXIS2_HOME/lib/ folder. If you are embedding Axis2 in a Application server, try placing your jar file WEB-INF/lib folder.
