Thanks for your help, Harshana.
It turns out that I wasn’t using the right version of Eclipse. I downloaded Eclipse for Java EE developers and the Axis wizards worked fine.

I have Eclipse Helios release 3.6.1, so it has the dropins directory. I just downloaded the zip file for the service archive generator wizard. I think it was 1.5.4. I also downloaded the zip file for the code generator wizard plug-in. I placed the two jar files in the dropins directory under the Eclipse directory. I opened Eclipse, looked under File-New-Other but the Axis folder isn’t there. I tried placing the jars in the plugins directory instead, but that didn’t work either. So I looked online and found the following issue https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-4896 I downloaded the jar files at the two links https://hudson.apache.org/hudson/job/axis2-1.5/lastBuild/org.apache.axis2$axis2.eclipse.codegen.plugin/ and https://hudson.apache.org/hudson/job/axis2-1.5/lastBuild/org.apache.axis2$axis2.eclipse.service.plugin/ (which were 1.5.5) and placed them in the dropins directory instead of the 1.5.4 ones. That didn’t work either. What am I doing wrong? Thanks, Shannon AKAIU, you have not done anything wrong here. Only thing I can think of is, you have not placed 1.5.5 jars under the plugins folder. AXIS2-4896[0] was fixed in the 1.5 and seems you have downloaded it and already tried. Please try the following approaches and let us know, how it goes. 1. Download the 1.5.5 zip archives from the links mentioned in the Axis2-4896 and extract them and placed under plugins folder. (Instead of dropins, placed them under the plugins folder). Try starting Eclipse with "-clean" option. 2. If first approach also does not work, try starting the Eclipse with -"console" option and try install the plugins manually to Eclipse via OSGi console. Then you will be able to see errors/exceptions if there are any. Please let us know what is the Eclipse distribution you are using (whether it is Eclipse J2EE version or any other) I tried installing the plugins in a new Helios J2EE version and in a new Helios Modeling version and only the J2EE Helios is able to resolve the Axis2 plugins. Modeling version did not identify the Axis2 plugins. Therefore i think it has to do something with the plugin dependencies and therefore Modeling version and other versions of Eclipse might not able to install the Axis2 plugins. So it might be the issue in your case too.
