EJB & SOAP

[Nortje, Andrew]

Hi SOAP Users   I'm real new to Apache SOAP and SOAP/XML in general so forgive the basic questions.   I have installed Apache SOAP and run some of the demo's, all working fine. I am now trying to setup a SOAP rpc service for an existing EJB installation I have running under JBoss and Tomcat.   What is somewhat confusing is: -          The deployment descriptor for the sample ejb has only one create method defined, what about the hello() 'business' method, why is it not in the descriptor? -          Where does one define the JNDI name of your EJB, there's place to define the URL and factory for the JNDI but no place for the JNDI name of the EJB.   Anyway I deployed my SAOP service fine knowing there are probably some errors in the deployment descriptor and get the following error:   [ERROR,Default] ============================================= [ERROR,Default] In TemplateProvider.locate() [ERROR,Default] URI: urn:ContactManagement [ERROR,Default] DD.ServiceClass: org.apache.soap.providers.StatelessEJBProvider [ERROR,Default] DD.ProviderClass: com.jazzman.contact.ContactManagementBean [ERROR,Default] Call.MethodName: getContacts [INFO,Default] Exception caught: javax.naming.ServiceUnavailableException: http [Root exception is java.net.UnknownHostException: http]   Here is my deployment descriptor   <?xml version="1.0"?>   <isd:service xmlns:isd="http://xml.apache.org/xml-soap/deployment" id="urn:ContactManagement">   <isd:provider     type="org.apache.soap.providers.StatelessEJBProvider"     scope="Application"     methods="create getContacts addContact">       <isd:java class="com.jazzman.contact.ContactManagementBean"/>     <isd:option key="FullHomeInterfaceName" value="com.jazzman.contact.ContactManagementHome"/>     <isd:option key="ContextProviderURL" value="http://localhost:1099"/>     <isd:option key="FullContextFactoryName" value="org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory"/>   </isd:provider>     <isd:faultListener>org.apache.soap.server.DOMFaultListener</isd:faultListener>   </isd:service>   Any ideas what I'm doing wrong or where I can look for answers.   Thanks in advance.   Andrew
