Hi All: Have you used Axis2 web services on WebSphere with security turned on so you have to use was.policy file to grant the required permissions? If so you might be able to help.
We have a Web Service (WS1) calling another WebService (WS2) using ServiceClient. However we get the following exception when WS1 calls WS2.

19:23:27:140 EDT] 65520fb0 SystemErr R at com.ibm.ws.util.ThreadPool$Worker.run(ThreadPool.java:937) I found a similar issue posted on the Web where the user was calling HttpClient from a JavaScript in an Applet. After tweaking the policy file he was able to get it working. I think the current issue could be due to one of the following: 1. Missing was.policy file entries that would allow the WebService under WEB-INF/services folder to use HttpClient. Or 2. We have not set some properties in WS1 on ServiceClient instance before invoking WS2. Would greatly appreciate any help. thanks, Yash
