Hi forum,
I'm taking the chance to put here an entry refering to my previous post made on the more general 'Jboss AS 7' community (cxf.xml and spring and jbossws-cxf-4.1.1.Final)
Since the topic is really related to the Web service stack, I hope I'll can get back some additional clues...
To summarize:
I my quest to make my webservice client working with a specific configuration, I did upgrate my JBOSS 7.1.1 final with jbossws-cxf-4.1.1.Final.
I did the upgrate using instructions provider in https://community.jboss.org/wiki/JBossWS-Installation.
- I'm working with JBOSS 7.1.1 final. I updated the jboss-cxf stack to jbossws-cxf-4.1.1.Final, including the installation of spring, using
-Dspring=true option, which I found is required in order for my cxf.xml file to be recognized by the runtime. - the declaration of the springs schemas NOT recognized by my current installation. When I shutdowm my network services, I can see the attempt to resolve the schemas failed because the definition, included in the ..jboss-as-7.1.1.Final\modules\org\apache\cxf\impl\main jars file are NOT correctly resolved (hence the fallback on the http).
Ex.:

Are all going through the network instead of using the provided schemas (example: ...jboss-as-7.1.1.Final\modules\org\apache\cxf\impl\main\cxf-rt-transports-http.jar\schemas\configuration\ contains the http-conf.xsd... and the spring.schemas defines the location).
- the namespace handlers, declared in the .jboss-as-7.1.1.Final\modules\org\apache\cxf\impl\main jars file are NOT correctly resolved as we can see in the following trace, where the runtime was unable to locate the NameSpace handler, altough this specifc handler is exposed by the jboss-as-7.1.1.Final\modules\org\apache\cxf\impl\main\cxf-rt-transports-http.jar\META-INF\spring.handlers

- Those inabilities to resolve the NamespaceHandler and the provided schemas seems to indicate a problem of classloading, which is very difficult (for me) to diagnose.
- I followed some suggestions regarding the use of EAR\META-INF\jboss-deployment-structure.xml, but none resolved the classloading problems. I tried the followings
jboss-deployment-structure.xml with no dependencies, except the ones required by my application (oracle driver, configuration parameters)
jboss-deployment-structure.xml with:
<module name="org.apache.cxf" export="true">
<imports>
<include path="META-INF**"/>
<include path="org**"/>
</imports>
</module>
jboss-deployment-structure.xml with:
<module name="org.apache.cxf" export="true">
<imports>
<include path="META-INF**"/>
<include path="org**"/>
</imports>
</module>
jboss-deployment-structure.xml with:
<module name="org.springframework.spring" export="true">
<imports>
<include path="META-INF**"/>
<include path="org**"/>
</imports>
</module>
<module name="org.apache.cxf" export="true">
<imports>
<include path="META-INF**"/>
<include path="org**"/>
</imports>
</module>
jboss-deployment-structure.xml with:
<module name="org.jboss.ws.cxf.jbossws-cxf-client" export="true">
</module>
(this one did NOT retrieve my cxf.xml configuration file...)
- Until now, I worked a lot to make thinks working using only a configuration file and the JAX-WS api, but if I cannot resolve this issue, I will have to fall back on using the CXF api directly
Thanks
