After testing apache soap for a while, I decided to swithch to GLUE(http://www.themindelectric.com/products/glue/glue.html). It's very easy to use, almost fool proof. WSDL file is automatically generated when you publish a soap service. It also has a tool called wsdl2java, which generates the interface needed to get access to the soap service on another machine.
