I, too, have problems with this and can't really nail down exactly when server-config.wsdd is written (other than when a service is deployed/undeployed).

Various permutations of this question have come up a few times on this list, and it seems no consistent solution has been presented. I'm using Axis 1.0rc1. I have my server-config.wsdd file in my Axis WEB-INF directory. When I start Axis (within Tomcat), it reads the file just fine and provides whatever services are described. No errors anywhere. I can furthermore use the AdminClient to deploy new services, which work and show up in the service list ("java org.apache.axis.client.AdminClient list"). This returned service list *looks* like a new server-config.wsdd file, but that file itself is not updated. The server-config.wsdd file is *never* written, and when I quit Axis/Tomcat (using "catalina stop") and start it up again, it rereads the config file and I have to redeploy everything. I have a sneaking suspicion that it *was* working for me before (when the server-config file was in the wrong place and I was getting errors, but it was writing it anyway...), and that perhaps something odd has changed in my config somewhere (such as I moved the server-config.wsdd to the "right place"). When is the server-config.wsdd file SUPPOSED to get written? On a change? On shutdown? Where is it supposed to be? I'd love to download a newer release, but the download pages have been white and empty for a couple days now. Any clues? Thanks for the help, and I'm sure a good response will help lot of other people who are equally frustrated getting this seemingly simple server setup to work. -- Dan Kamins _________________________________________________________________ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com
