Thanks for your reply! I will take a look at your suggestions.
What's bothering me is that IBM clearly doesn not support Web Applications running Axis SOAP Engine running in WebSphere. I don't know if my company will take the risk to run an unsupported application. Maybe it's time to migrate to JBoss in production.. :o) Cheers, Are T.

I have had some problems with Axis1.2RC3 and WAS 5.1 but I got over those by using Shared libraries to contain all the Axis jars and PARENT_LAST as the classloader policy. I also had to specify a name-value pair assigning the fully-qualified class name of the LogFactory implementation to property org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory in file commons-logging.properties, and place this file in the classpath to force WAS to use the Apache implementation of LogFactory instead of the IBM one - see http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27004610 (but this could be just for WAS on the iSeries). I added the commons-logging.properties file to a config directory which was in a shared library associated with the application and Axis was happy and the web service worked. I also called IBM support for help but in the end I ended up finding the solution through google. -----Original Message----- From: Tysnes Are Thobias [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 04 May 2005 8:54 To: axis-user@ws.apache.org Cc: axis-dev@ws.apache.org Subject: WebSphere 5.1 does not run Web Applications running Axis SOAP Engine Hello! We are running WebSphere Application Servers in production and are planing on deploying a Web Application (Web Services, Axis 1.2 and Castor). There are some issues deploying Web Applications containing Axis in WebSphere because IBM is using a "home-made" version of Axis inside WebSphere. I did contact IBM support and they can tell me that it is not possible to run Web Applications containg Axis on WebSphere 5.1. Can anyone confirm this !? Do we realy have to change our Application Server because we decided to use Axis as SOAP Engine !? Cheers, Are T.
