Rogerio, axis-users: I figured out the problem mentioned in my previous post.
Originally, when I changed the JAVA_ENDORSED_DIRS in Tomcat's setclasspath.sh to include the Axis lib directory, I added it at the end of the existing directories. I got frustrated trying to get this to work (see below) and did something else for a week. When I can back to it I tried adding the Axis lib directory to the beginning of the existing directories in JAVA_ENDORSED_DIRS and I was able to use AdminClient to deploy my service and the TypeMappings. This doesn't explain why using JDK 1.3.1 didn't work because it doesn't use JAVA_ENDORSED_DIRS but I assume it has something to do the the order of class loading/resolution - go figure... Hope this helps. alan > -----Original Message----- > From: Rogério Ferreira [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Friday, May 17, 2002 11:04 AM > To: Alan Moore > Subject: Axis Problem > > > > Hi. > > I saw your problem in the mailing list site and I have > exactly the same > problem. > > I tried do deploy the service with the Axis version that > came's with IBM > Web Services Toolkit and there where no problems during the > deployment. > However runing the client of the samples/userguide/example5 > example some > problems occured in some "Parameters" classes. > > This is very stange.

For example, a previous poster was using Java 1.4.0 and the ENDORSED_DIRS was not pointing to the Axis jars. I was using Java 1.4.0 also and tried in vein to change setclasspath.sh in Tomcat to point to the right places but that didn't help. I figured that by reverting to Java 1.3.1 (temporarily) I could at least prove that it was/wasn't the issue. And of course it doesn't appear to be since after switching to 1.3.1 I am still experiencing the exception listed at the bottom of this message. Environment: JDK 1.3.1 and JSDK 1.4.0 Tomcat 4.0.3 (standalone) Axis Beta 2 My Axis generated skeletons/etc and application classes are located in the webapps/axis/WEB-INF/classes directory. I am using WSDL2Java to create the --server-side --skeletonDeploy classes. My deploy.wsdd (axis generated) is as follows: <deployment xmlns="http://xml.apache.org/axis/wsdd/" xmlns:java="http://xml.apache.org/axis/wsdd/providers/java"> <!-- Services from dasEv WSDL service --> <service name="dasEvPort" provider="java:RPC"> <parameter name="className" value="com.ciphergen.g4.das.axis.server.DasEvBindingSkeleton"/> <parameter name="allowedMethods" value="*"/> <typeMapping xmlns:ns="urn:G4_namespace" qname="ns:ArrayOfstring" type="java:java.lang.String[]" serializer="org.apache.axis.encoding.ser.ArraySerializerFactory" deserializer="org.apache.axis.encoding.ser.ArrayDeserializerFactory" encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" /> <typeMapping xmlns:ns="urn:G4_namespace" qname="ns:CassetteInfo" type="java:com.ciphergen.g4.das.axis.server.CassetteInfo" serializer="org.apache.axis.encoding.ser.BeanSerializerFactory" deserializer="org.apache.axis.encoding.ser.BeanDeserializerFactory" encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" /> </service> </deployment> If I comment out both of the typeMappings it "deploys" fine. Commenting out only one or the other doesn't allow the service to be registered (same NoSuchMethodError) exception... I suspect that axis cannot find the serializers/deserializers but I cannot figure out why since the axis jars are in the webapps/axis/WEB-INF/lib directory: Contents of axis/WEB-INF/lib: total 2204 -rwxrwxr-x 800632 Apr 29 16:29 axis.jar -rwxrwxr-x 55754 Apr 29 16:29 commons-logging.jar -rwxrwxr-x 44099 Apr 29 16:29 jaxrpc.jar -rwxrwxr-x 78140 Apr 29 16:29 log4j-core.jar -rwxrwxr-x 130773 Apr 29 16:29 tt-bytecode.jar -rwxrwxr-x 143069 Apr 29 16:29 wsdl4j.jar -rw-rw-r-- 967350 Mar 13 11:54 xerces.jar I also thrashed about a bit and put them anywhere axis/tomcat/classloaders *might* look but that didn't help. In looking at the stack it seems that the TypeMappingRegistry being used doesn't implement the TypeMappingRegistry.register(String,TypeMapping) method. But I looked at the code for the TypeMappingRegistryImpl class and it does have this method... go figure. I am stuck on what could be wrong here. Has anyone had a similar problem and how did you get past it? Should I continue down this blind alley or is there something else I should look at?
