Hi,
Apologies if the question is too basic for this forum. I'm developing my
first java web service using Eclipse/Axis2/Tomcat. I followed the excellent
tutorial found at
http://www.builderau.com.au/program/java/soa/Setting-up-a-simple-Web-service-using-Java/0,339024620,339284524,00.htm

which worked fine and my development environment is still set up mimicking
the tutorial example. My problem is that I am now trying to use external
jars with my program on the client and web service side to process the
message when it arrives at the web service.
Basic web service / client communication is fine when using basic java
strings etc. but when I start accessing the external .jar to help process
the received strings etc I get axis2 errors along the line of
*org.apache.axis2.AxisFault: com/sdk/path/within/jarfile/Message
at
org.apache.axis2.util.Utils.getInboundFaultFromMessageContext(Utils.java:512)
at
org.apache.axis2.description.OutInAxisOperationClient.handleResponse(OutInAxisOperation.java:370)
at
org.apache.axis2.description.OutInAxisOperationClient.send(OutInAxisOperation.java:416)
....

..
[ERROR] com/path/path/within/jarfile/Message
java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException
at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method)
at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(Unknown Source)
and I also get
*[ERROR] org/apache/axis/description/FieldDesc
java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException
when accessing this jar.
I'm guessing I somehow have to put this jar in my axis2_home/lib folder or
something similar but I've no idea how to find axis2_home..i have seen it in
the xmls but can't resolve the ${parameter} to output to the screen.. when i
edit the xml it gets overwritten. There is no lib folder in the axis2-web
folder in my workspace and I tried placing the jar file the WEB-INF/lib
folder but to no avail....The jar is on my Java Eclipse build path and
causes no Java compilation errors, works fine as a standard Java app etc.
but Axis2 doesn't seem to want to know about it!!!!!
Any help greatly appreciated..
Thanks,
Tori
