I would suggest trying to put handler in explicitly,
<service name="MsgSessionCounterService"
provider="java:MSG">
<!-- Declare flows -->
<requestFlow>
<handler
"java:org.jh.handlers.SessionHandler"/>
</requestFlow>
<responseFlow>
<handler
"java:org.jh.handlers.SessionHandler"/>
</responseFlow>
</service>
Try chaning the actual client-config.wsdd in axis.jar
used by your client and re-jar axis.jar
