Axis Stock Quote Example

[Mohamed Farouk]

Dear Friends
I have gone according to installation of Axis Stock Quote Example and everything is working fine. The example got deployed into tomcat and when tested it got me the results 55.25 ok.

Now I am nwo trying to understand what each of the java run i made mean to me interms of webservice.

What does the below command do and where is this URL (/axis/services/AdminService) defined?

java -cp %AXISCLASSPATH% org.apache.axis.client.AdminClient -lhttp://localhost:8080/axis/serivces/AdminService deploy.wsdd
Thanks
Farouk

That command tells Axis to deploy the web service that is defined in "deploy.wsdd". Afterwards, the web service can be accessed (and it will also be listed at http://localhost:8080/axis/servlet/AxisServlet).

The URL is defined by Axis. You'll see it in the web.xml file.

Thanks for your reply,
Now the URL I mentioned is not AxisServlet URL, but the AdminService URL which is not mentioned anywhere in the web.xml. I cannot find definition of the below URL in web xml

http://localhost:8080/axis/serivces/AdminService

AdminService is not listed per se, but "/services/*" is mapped to AxisServlet. The appendix AdminService is used internally to distinguish what to do with the request.
