Hi Joerg, If I got you right, all you have to do is to run AdminClient tool with "-llocal:" parameter. You'll get the "server-config.wsdd" generated on the path you're running AdminClient without having the server to be up and running! I've done so and it has been fully ok!
Here is windows script I'm using (you can convert it to an ANT target as well): -------------------- set LIB_DIR=F:\Temp\axis-1_1beta\lib set CP=%LIB_DIR%/axis.jar;%LIB_DIR%/commons-discovery.jar;%LIB_DIR%/commons- logging.jar;%LIB_DIR%/jaxrpc.jar;%LIB_DIR%/log4j-1.2.4.jar;%LIB_DIR%/saa j.jar;%LIB_DIR%/wsdl4j.jar;%LIB_DIR%/crimson.jar;%LIB_DIR%/jaxp.jar set SERVICES_TO_DEPLOY=deploy.wsdd java -classpath .;%CP% org.apache.axis.client.AdminClient SERVICES_TO_DEPLOY% -llocal: -------------------- Best Wishes, Armond -----Original Message----- From: Joerg Buchberger [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, February 04, 2003 11:29 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: generating server-config.wsdd from deploy.wsdd Hi there. Is there any axis class I can use to generate the axis config file "server-config.wsdd" from "deploy.wsdd" offline, i.e. without axis running. IOW, I'm looking for a way to do kind of a "cold" pre-installation as opposed to the "hot deployment" (the latter via AdminClient). (I think I know how to do it manually, but rather would like to use some facility to automate the process.) Appreciate any hints! Cheers, Joerg
