Hi, I have successfully installed axis (axis-1.4) under tomcat 4.1 (apache-tomcat-4.1.37-LE-jdk1.4 and java 1.4 (j2sdk1.4.2_17) and ubuntu 8.10 and I can run perfectly my web service application.
I can generate the server-config.wsdd from a deploy.wsdd file with my web service class using the AdminService. From the WEB-INF directory i do: export CLASSPATH=lib/*:classes java -classpath "$CLASSPATH" org.apache.axis.client.AdminClient -lhttp://localhost:8080/ws/services/AdminService classes/vmp/deploy.wsdd It would be very convenient to do that automatically on loading my webapp (ws) and I think that used to work in previous versions. However now when I am starting tomcat and get the message: Unable to find config file. Creating new servlet engine config file: /WEB-INF/server-config.wsdd there isn't any server-config.wsdd anywhere in my webapp. I enabled logging for DEBUG messages following the manual instructions (removing the configuration file from the axis.jar) and while I am getting various messages, nothing says why server-config.wsdd is failing to be created. Directories under webapp are writable by the tomcat process. I even created a small clean test web application called ws to test it. I do not understand what I am doing wrong here. I was thinking that probably axis cannot write in the WEB-INF but I think i would get some security or io exception in this case. I am pasting the files as well. Any help would be apreciated. regards Yiannis Here is my class: ------------------------ package vmp; public class PingService { public String ping() { return "Hi There"; } } Here is my deploy.wsdd placed under /WEB-INF/classes/vmp/deploy.wsdd ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- <deployment
