Hi Roger, As far as i know taverna works with most WSDLs irrespective of technology it was generated but the type/style of WSDL is important, if it is WS-I compliant it generally works except there were issues raised in the email list that there are problems with type inheritance and multiple services in one WSDL, however most web services around don't use both of these features. Couple of weeks ago there was a user complaining about his/her web services not recognized by taverna, another taverna user/hacker advised him to use document/literal wrapped style, after this cahnge his WSDL files were successfully recognized by taverna.
I don't know your level of Java skills but i can recommend Netbeans for developing Java web services if you don't have strong skills in Java Web Services programming, it is quite stable, user friendly and netbeans web site has good tutorials. My personal selection of web services stack is jax-ws but if you prefer to use Axis2 netbeans support it. soapui is also one of the best tools that you can use for testing web services even for consuming web services in your daily work. (i was planning to reply to your soaplab plugin mail in the list but haven't managed so far, i will reply next week after i met Martin) Regards, Mahmut > > Here is another problem with Taverna 2.0. > > > > I am trying to add a WSDL activity, for example > http://localhost:8080/axis2/services/Version?wsdl - this URL endpoint > works > fine and the browser displays the wsdl properly.
