I have built an Ws Client to wrap around some web services I have, using cxf 2.5.2. I am generating the code using the wsdl2java plug in and had been relatively pleased with how its all working. Using the client code I have written running junit tests it all seems to work fine.

Then the fun started, like most of my working year so fun I'm figting getting things deployed onto weblogic 11g (10.3.5.0), the code won't run on weblogic, weblogic as usual has it's own implementation of things deployed which clash, this is the error produced. java.lang.ClassCastException: weblogic.wsee.jaxws.spi.ClientInstanceInvocationHandler cannot be cast to org.apache.cxf.frontend.ClientProxy Consulting the documentation, it says package as an ear and setting the following prefered application pacakges http://cxf.apache.org/docs/application-server-specific-configuration-guide.html#ApplicationServerSpecificConfigurationGuide-WebLogic) I've tried, all three things suggest in documentation... <prefer-application-packages> <package-name>javax.jws.*</package-name> </prefer-application-packages> tried... <prefer-application-packages> <package-name>javax.jws.*</package-name> <package-name>org.apache.xerces.*</package-name> <package-name>org.apache.xalan.*</package-name> </prefer-application-packages> tried adding the xml section as well <xml> <parser-factory> <saxparser-factory>org.apache.xerces.jaxp.SAXParserFactoryImpl</saxparser-factory> <document-builder-factory>org.apache.xerces.jaxp.DocumentBuilderFactoryImpl</document-builder-factory> <transformer-factory>org.apache.xalan.processor.TransformerFactoryImpl</transformer-factory> </parser-factory> </xml> These all produce the same error java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/jws/WebService Googling around for weblogic cxf it's popped up a few times that the issue relates to the geronimo-ws-metadata_2.0_spec-1.1.2.jar. This jar isn't part of my build, its not a dependency of cxf-rt-frontend-jaxws or cxf-rt-transports-http. Could really do with some help, javax.jws.WebService is part of the 1.6 JRE, so I guess in saying prefer only javax.jws.* weblogic excludes the class from the JRE, which seems crazy to me! Has anybody got this working?
