NullPointerException while using webservice client.

[Gopi Chand Maddula]

Hi all,

I am trying to integrate with a webservice which uses 2 way SSL Authentication. I am using axis and Java 1.7 with Apache Tomcat Server.

My Problem is that when I send request I get NullPointer exception by the stub class.The response send by the server does not come to the client calling class but before that the stub class at the client generates a null pointer exception.

Below is the exception trace for your reference.
