Hi People,
I encountered a few problems installing Axis. The happyaxis testpage
mentioned errors like :
could not find class javax.xml.soap.SOAPMessage from file saaj.jar
Like noted on the happyaxis-page, this is because on Tomcat 4.x and Java1.4,
you need to put libraries that contain java.* or javax.* packages into
${tomcat-home}/common/lib
jaxrpc.jar, saaj.jar and wsdl4j.jar are such libraries, which I moved to
the common/lib directory of tomcat. This solved the problem mentioned above,
but I still got an error :
Error: could not find a dependency of class
org.apache.axis.transport.http.AxisServlet
This error didn't show up when I also moved the other axis jars (axis-jar,
axis-ant.jar, commons-discovery.jar, commons-logging.jar and
log4j-1.2.8.jar) to the common/lib directory. This is strange because these
libraries do not contain java.* or javax.* packages ?
Eventually, everything seems to work out fine ;
