Tomcat errors while developing web services using Eclipse 3.5, Tomcat 6.0, Axis2 1.4

[Kumarjit Chakraborty]

Hi,

Greetings to you all.

I am new in eclipse. I am trying to create a web service with eclipse 3.5. I am following steps mentioned in the page http://www.eclipse.org/webtools/community/tutorials/BottomUpAxis2WebService/bu_tutorial.html.

I am using the following:

Tomcat 6.0
Eclipse 3.5 galileo
Axis2 1.4

But after all the steps are completed, tomcat server attached with eclipse, when restarted to deploy the service, is printing lines in red text in the IDE console. I think these are errors and the service is not being deployed.

Also the IDE is not being able to display tomcat and axis2 home page in its internal browser.

I tried running tomcat from command prompt and running tomcat and axis2 home pages from Mozilla. Its is working fine.

Can anyone please tell me what is going wrong with the IDE.

-Kumarjit

Kumarjit, welcome to javaranch.

Can you post the error here for people to see. That way it would be easier to track the problem...

[Meng Wang]

Hi Kumarjit, try to install Eclipse 3.5 (IDE for java EE developers) again, without adding any other plugins.

http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/ (the first download link)

And use Axis2 1.4.1... Might work.

http://ws.apache.org/axis2/download/1_4_1/download.cgi

[Kumarjit Chakraborty]

//Ankit: Sorry for replying so late.

Mean while I have explored further. Now the web service is not getting deployed and following error is generated in a pop up box in eclipse,

IWAB0489E Error when deploying Web service to Axis runtime
axis-admin failed with {http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/}Client The service cannot be found for the endpoint reference (EPR) http://localhost:8080/Axis2WSTest/services/AdminService

Also the following lines are printed in eclipse console when tomcat is started. The error is displayed again again

//Zeng: I will definitely try the versions you mentioned. It will really be helpful if you can provide me a document containing the steps to develop a web service using those.

[Meng Wang]

Hi, Kumarjit :-)

I used the same tutorial, and something similar also happened at the very first. And i finally found that the problem was caused by these two plugins "axis2 eclipse codegen wizard" and "axis2 eclipse service archiver wizard". So I reinstalled Eclipse (fresh and without any other Plugins), and everything works pretty fine now.

Hope it would help.

Meng

[Kumarjit Chakraborty]

Meng,

I think I dont have that plugins installed. Anyways I am going to try the new eclipse and axis today. Lets see whats there in my luck.

[Kumarjit Chakraborty]

Meng,

I tried using the versions of Eclipse and Asix2

This eclipse is also printing some redlines in the console when tomcat is restarted. I have noticed some points and those are listed down:
1. Eclipse browser is not being able to display the tomcat homepage at http://localhost:8080/, event the tomcat is started.
2. No WSDl file is generated in the project.

Lines printed in eclipse are something as follows

Hi Kumarjit

Redlines would be OK without "[ERROR]" printed. They are just some kind of infos or warnings.
You don't have to start tomcat server manually from tomcat monitor, the tomcat server will be started automatically by your project.
Try to use this link to check your services: http://localhost:8080/Axis2WSTest/services/listServices
"Axis2WSTest" is your dynamic web project name in this case.

[Kumarjit Chakraborty]

Meng,

Thanks a lot.

I am doing the following:

1. Right click on the project name
2. Run As-> Run On Server

The page displayed in the Eclipse browser is http://localhost:8080/Axis2WSTest/

But this is displaying 404 error. I tried using the link http://localhost:8080/Axis2WSTest/services/listServices . But the same result.

I tried to display the link http://localhost:8080/ . Same result here as well.

I think something is missing tomcat configuration in Eclipse.

[Meng Wang]

Kumarjit,

try to right click on the *.java file (converter.java in the tutorial), and choose "Web Service"-> "Create Web Service".

[Kumarjit Chakraborty]

Meng,

Same result. And the main thing is the WSDL file is not getting created.

Hikumarjit,

From all your postings looks like you have cleaned up all the mess, except the following warning that i found from your logs...

WARNING: [SetPropertiesRule]{Server/Service/Engine/Host/Context} Setting property 'source' to 'org.eclipse.jst.jee.server:Axis2WSTest' did not find a matching property.

I will redirect you to one link it may helpful, hope this will fix your problem, its problem with the tomcat setting this link will point you what to do..

[Casey Boardman]

Are you pointing at the Axis2 server?

http://dev.eclipse.org/newslists/news.eclipse.webtools/msg15658.html

That at least got me the right screen in step 11.

It says the server is start up but still i am getting the 404 error. It is not even giving me the tomcat home page ( http://localhost:7070/ )

Note: I have change my port no from 8080 to 7070.

Your helps will be highly appreciate
