Hi Alexander,
Could pls help to execute my webservice succesfully?

1) when I try to search for wsdl http://localhost:8081/personService/personService?wsdl
I am Unable to find. Is this the right URL to make a call from soap UI
2) How to change the endpoint URL(with servername and port) dynamically when ever we upload to any server.
ex: http://server1:8082

Thank heaps,
Sarada

Great example, especially for using a complex type as the web method arg, but…

…I too am not getting the Person instance fully populated by JAX-B. I get an instance of the correct class, but none of the fields are set.

Sadly Prabhu’s solution is not specific enough to fix it, although I’m following that as a lead. Help! :-)

I am using RAD7.5 with Websphere 7 and could not find the url to use either. Kept coming back as 404 not found.
I have an existing web project already which I manually added the folder wsdl to /web-inf and the two files personService.wsdl
person.xsd. Everything compiled nicely and published automatically but soapUI did not work.
What I did was go into the Websphere admin console, clicked on my web ear and under the option “Web Services Properties” you can “Publish WSDL files ” which sent back what RAD and Websphere did to it.
In my case for some reason, it came back with this info in the new file wsdl http://d19d99:80/PersonServicePorts
So when launching SoapUI tester, I put this url instead under the override tab for the endpoint which then worked.

Hi Simon,
It’s a totally valid question. What you need to put in web.xml depends on your container. I was testing with WebSphere which employs some AOP “magic” so you don’t need to do anything explicitly. But for xfire, as an example, you do need to specify a servlet: http://myarch.com/files/jaxws_tutorial/web.xml.
As far as your second question, I pointed to /root in Tomcat and configured Eclipse to compile into WEB-INF/classes. For WebSphere I use Ant to build.

And also:
http :// localhost : 8080 / myproject/PersonServicePorts.

All give 404.

I just did run on server in eclipse. my test servlet and test jsp page are working. There is no mention in the web.xml of the services. How does tomcat know about the services and their classes?

I notice in your factory class, the line:
wsdlLocation=”WEB-INF/wsdl/PersonService.wsdl”

How does it get into the WEB-INF? neither eclipse, nor maven package put it in there from the source dir.

So once the source files are in the project, how do you build it?

Sorry for my stupidity.
