Hi Pasquale, Please see my comments in-line.

It does not 'host' your Web service. Axis2 is the Web services engine which hosts your service. Synapse only routes the requests it receive to the correct service endpoint as defined in the Synapse configuration. So in order to invoke your Web service remotely it is necessary and sufficient to have only Axis2 server running. Also we would like to have a look at the Synapse configuration (synapse.xml) you are using to start Synapse. That will enable us better help you. > > > *2)* I controlled the structure of SimpleStockQuoteService: the project of > the service is in %SYNAPSE_HOME%\samples\axis2Server\src, > the client of this service is the complete directory > %SYNAPSE_HOME%\samples\axis2Client? > How can I generate a client like this for my simple service? > (in order to run my service like a normale service in one ESB like > SimpleStockQuote) As I mentioned before services do not run in the ESB. They run at your Axis2 server. ESB simply routes the traffic back and forth. If you already have a client which can be used to invoke your service remotely you can try doing some modifications to it so that instead of directly invoking the Axis2 service it sends the request to Synapse. > > *3)* I considered also the link by asankha > > http://adroitlogic.org/knowledge-base-axis2/10-soap-over-jms-with-apache-axis2.html > . > I generated a correct client from my WSDL, but I don't understand how to > execute this client whit Ant and the command "[java]". > How can I use Ant to build and execute the my SumCalculatorServiceClient? > (like the sample TestClient showed in the link) Well for this you'll have to read Apache Ant documentation and learn how to write Ant build scripts. Ant is a neat little tool which can be used to automate building projects and running applications. You can get some idea about how we use Ant to run sample clients by having a look at the build.xml file in the axis2Client directory.
