JBOSS web service client doesn't work ( runtime modeler error: Wrapper class not found )

[Hardik Mehta]

I have a simple hello-world EJB3 successfully deployed as web service. I can check it with url: http://localhost:8080/jbossws/services


Following is the client which works for Glassfish but doesn't work for JBOSS

package com.hardik.mejb;

import java.net.MalformedURLException;
import java.net.URL;
import javax.xml.namespace.QName;
import javax.xml.ws.Service;

public class JAXWSClient {
	
	private static String host = "localhost";
	private static String portType = "HelloBean";
	private static String serviceName = "Greeter";
	private static String serviceName_jboss = "hello-ws-hello-ws";

	// works for glassfish
	// private static String serviceEndpointAddress = "http://"+ host+ ":8080/" + serviceName;
	
	// should work for jboss
	private static String serviceEndpointAddress = "http://"+ host+ ":8080/" + serviceName_jboss;
	
	private static String namespace = "http://mejb.hardik.com/";
	
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		
		URL wsdlLocation = null;
		try {
			String urlstr = serviceEndpointAddress + "/" + portType + "?WSDL";
			System.out.println(urlstr);
			wsdlLocation = new URL(urlstr);
		} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
			// TODO Auto-generated catch block
			e.printStackTrace();
		}
		
		QName serviceNameQ = new QName(namespace,serviceName);		
		// dynamic service usage
		Service service = Service.create(wsdlLocation, serviceNameQ);
		Hello firstGreeterPort =  service.getPort(Hello.class);
		
		// Object beans[] = service.getPorts();
		System.out.println("1: "+ firstGreeterPort.hello());		
	}
}

Here is how I execute the client and the error I get:

wsrunclient.sh  -cp "lib/*:dist/hello-client.jar:jboss-generated/*"  com.hardik.mejb.JAXWSClient
http://localhost:8080/hello-ws-hello-ws/HelloBean?WSDL

Do I need to generate something ? Am I missing some jar file(s) ?

Try this, if you are in Jboss4.2 try this.

Copy $JBOSS_HOME/lib/endorsed/xercesImpl.jar into $JBOSS_HOME/client directory. This is to resolve an issue in JBoss4.2 about a class not found.
Copy $JBOSS_HOME/server/default/lib/jboss-saaj.jar to $JBOSS_HOME/lib/endorsed

Thanks Lalit,

I sorted out this problem. It was a missing jars problem indeed and I ended up with following in my class path:
All the libs are from jboss/client

echo $CLASSPATH 
jboss_libs/jboss-common-core.jar:jboss_libs/jbossall-client.jar:jboss_libs/jbossws-spi.jar:jboss_libs/jbossws-native-core.jar:jboss_libs/jbossws-native-client.jar::jboss_libs/jaxb-impl.jar:jboss_libs/jboss-xml-binding.jar:jboss_libs/stax-api.jar:jboss_libs/wstx.jar:jboss_libs/jboss-logging-jdk.jar:jboss_libs/jboss-logging-spi.jar:jboss_libs/jbossws-common.jar:jboss_libs/wsdl4j.jar:jboss_libs/mail.jar:jboss_libs/policy.jar:jboss_libs/commons-logging.jar:jboss_libs/javassist.jar:jboss_libs/jboss-remoting.jar

But after the client started running properly, I got following exception in my server.log

And on client side it looks like following:

http://localhost:8080/hello-ws-hello-ws/HelloBean?WSDL
[Fatal Error] :-1:-1: Premature end of file.
2: null

Just for info: I installed jboss from jboss-5.1.0.GA-jdk6.zip

thanks & regards.

did you solve your problem? I have exactly the same with JBOSS 5.1.0GA JDK1.6 compiled. I'm not able to call the webservice with the "setProperty must be overridden by all subclasses of SOAPMessage" exception.
