Hi guys,
I have this webservice with Metro and Spring that consumes another WebService, but when deploying it into JBoss it fails.
I'm using the following stack of technologies
JBoss Server: jboss4.3CP09/jboss-as
Frameworks: Spring 2.5.5 + Metro 2.1.7 (jaxws-rt)
This is the error I've been gettin (I'm sumaryzing the most important lines):
javax.xml.ws.WebServiceException: Unable to load Provider: Failed to load javax.xml.ws.spi.Provider: com.sun.xml.ws.spi.ProviderImpl
Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Failed to load javax.xml.ws.spi.Provider: com.sun.xml.ws.spi.ProviderImpl
at javax.xml.ws.spi.ProviderLoader.loadProvider(ProviderLoader.java:96)
at javax.xml.ws.spi.Provider.provider(Provider.java:90)
... 171 more
Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Ljavax/xml/bind/JAXBContext;
This is how I'm creating the client with Spring
<bean id="pcWS" class="org.springframework.remoting.jaxws.JaxWsPortProxyFactoryBean">
<property name="serviceInterface" value="${pc.interfaceName}" />
<property name="endpointAddress" value="${pc.endpoint}" />
<property name="wsdlDocumentUrl" value="${pc.wsdl}" />
<property name="namespaceUri" value="${pc.namespace}" />
<property name="serviceName" value="${pc.serviceName}" />
</bean>
It is worth mention that I ran into another issue with another set of applications using Spring and CXF hosted under the same jboss installation, where the solution was to remove jaxb-api.jar from ${jboss.lib.url}/lib/endorsed directory and that is working good.
Thanks on advance your comments.
