You must give the full path to the deploy.wsdd file if you are not in the same directory as the deploy.wsdd file for the web service you are trying to deploy. For instance the StockQuote sample's deploy.wsdd is located in xml-axis-beta1\samples\stock directory of the axis binary - xml-axis-beta1.zip or xml-axis-beta1.tar.gz. Check out the "Custom Deployment - Introduction WSDD" section of the Axis user's guide for more information on how to use this.
