WAS4.0 uses Apache SOAP where as WAS5.1 comes with Axis though it still supports Apache SOAP. All new WS features in WebSphere such as WSIF are built on Axis. Jai

With Apache SOAP, you will need to do a lot low level coding while with AXIS, all of the XML parsing logic is transparent to your app. - Yaxiong -----Original Message----- From: THOMAS, JAI [AG-Contractor/1000] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 17, 2004 9:42 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: How to add AXIS to Web Sphere 5.1 Mahen, WAS5.1 comes with Axis as built-in soap engine so you don't really need to add the axis web app. Jai -----Original Message----- From: Mahen Perera [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 17, 2004 7:02 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: How to add AXIS to Web Sphere 5.1 Hi I want to use the AXIS SOAP engine in Web Sphere, instead of the built in SOAP engine provided by Web Sphere. To do this, I deployed AXIS as a normal Web Application (i.e packaging the webapps\axis folder in the AXIS 1.1 distribution in to a WAR file called axis.war and deploying this WAR file using the Admin Console of Web Sphere - used default settings). When the context root was requested in deploying the WAR file , i used "axis" as the Context root After deploying, i tried to access the <serverName>:port/<context Root> But did not get the AXIS Welcome page... Can someone pls help in sorting this out.... Do i have to do any configurations when deploying the WAR file ,,,, or ...??? Mahen
