I think you're right about server-config.wsdd, but you don't need to deploy the Axis webapp at all. If you put server-config.wsdd in your app's web-inf and the Axis libraries in the classpath, and map your service url to Axis, this should be sufficient.

I don't think the server-config.wsdd file goes across contexts. From what I understand, it is used to initialize the webapp that it lives in. For example, I have the Axis webapp deployed in the same instance of Tomcat that I have my custom webapp. But, the two different webapps show completely different web services deployments. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joe Hanink" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, January 02, 2003 4:42 PM Subject: RE: Packaging Axis... I just started using Axis and had some difficulty with server-config.wsdd at first. Being the server config file, there should be only one. Chances are, you packaged up the axis context, which has /WEB-INF/server-config.wsdd that's pre-empting the one you want designated (see server.xml to see if this is the case) So, this might be a context-related problem. If you're loading multiple contexts, make sure the one with the wsdd you want to use is being loaded first. If you want to call the service from the axis context, http://somehost/axis/services/MyService?wsdl, then you'll need to load the axis context (see server.xml) If you want to call the service from your custom web app context, http://somehost/yourContextPattern/services/MyService?wsdl, don't load the axis context.

I would like to package the AxisServlet in my webapp along with other pieces of my distributed application (Java WebStart servlet, etc.). How do I "war up" my files so that when I place my WAR file in the webapps directory of a server, it will already have my service deployed? I've tried supplying my own /WEB-INF/server-config.wsdd file containing only my service, but that didn't seem to work. When I tried to view the WSDL file, it returned a 404 error. I don't want to have to run the AdminClient. I want this thing to work "out of the box." Any thoughts/ideas? James Carman, President Carman Consulting, Inc. 1218 Bob White Ct.
