Hi, I have struggled with the deploy exception for more than a week. Here is my development environment, Axis2 1.4.1, JDK 1.6, Tomcat 6. I have generated the skeleton, message receiver and related java files using WSDL2Java tool (adb binding). I have tried to deploy the service in standalone Axis2 server using aar file, also tried to deploy in Tomcat 6 using exploded service archive, however, I am getting faulty service ( DeploymentException: ClassNotFoundException error occurred in loading the message receiver). I have also tried to embed the web service in a servlet web app, and deployed the war file into Tomcat, I am getting same error, see below for details. I have searched all over web, but did not find anything useful to resolve this issue. I have made sure that the service is compiled with jdk 1.6 and the server is running using jdk 1.6, I have also made sure to include all Axis2 libraries in either the service or the web app. Any ideas what could be wrong here, or how to debug the issue? The message receiver class IS in the service archive or the web app, but it seems that the class loader is having trouble finding it? Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
