JBoss Community

Hello,

I'm currently trying to migrate our application from jboss5 to jboss6 and I'm running into some issues.

My first try was with jboss6 CR1:

We have some web services (EJB3 endpoints) and they all have @HandlerChain declaration (we use this to do the XML validation since the built-in SOAP validation didn't work on Jboss5) and it all worked fine with jboss5 and jbossws native 3.3.1 GA.

Now with jboss6 CR1, since it is shipped with jbossws-CXF 3.4.1 my @HandlerChain declaration does not seem to be valid any more (btw, I was not able to find any clear document on own to declare a handler chain with CXF).

So I've decided to use jbossws-native-3.4.0 (the latest version available) and I worked fine: I was able to have my web services running just like with jboss5

Today, I've downloded jboss6 Final with CXF 3.4.1

18:32:43,489 INFO  [AbstractServerConfig] JBoss Web Services - Stack CXF Server 3.4.1.GA

and just like for jboss6 CR1, I tried to deploy jbossws native.

But this time I get:

18:34:46,515 INFO  [AbstractServerConfig] JBoss Web Services - Native Server 3.4.0.GA
18:34:46,523 ERROR [AbstractKernelController] Error installing to PreInstall: name=WSDescriptorDeployer state=Real: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/jboss/wsf/spi/metadata/DescriptorParser
        at java.lang.Class.getDeclaredConstructors0(Native Method) [:1.6.0_23]
        at java.lang.Class.privateGetDeclaredConstructors(Class.java:2389) [:1.6.0_23]
        at java.lang.Class.getDeclaredConstructors(Class.java:1836) [:1.6.0_23]

.....

Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.jboss.wsf.spi.metadata.DescriptorParser
        at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:202) [:1.6.0_23]

So, jboss6 CR1 comes with  Stack CXF Server 3.4.0.CR3 and I can install Native Server 3.4.0.GA

But, jboss6 Final comes with CXF 3.4.1 and I cannot install Native Server 3.4.0.GA...

Can someone please explain me:

- how to install jbossws native in jboss6?

- where do I get jbossws native 3.4.1 (is it available? 3.4.0 native or CXF are the latest available at http://www.jboss.org/jbossws/downloads )?

- how do I declare HandlerChain with CXF?

my EJB have @HandlerChain(file = "/META-INF/soapHandler/handler-chain.xml")

and the handler-chain.xml is as follow:

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

  <handler-config>
    <handler-chain>
        <handler-chain-name>SoapHandler</handler-chain-name>
        <handler>
            <handler-name>SoapMessageValidationHandler</handler-name>
            <handler-class>com.ubiqube.api.ws.soapHandler.MessageValidationSoapHandler</handler-class>
        </handler>
    </handler-chain>
  </handler-config>

thanks,

Antoine
