Glauber Ribeiro [http://community.jboss.org/people/theglauber] created the discussion "Problem with Jax-WS Web service, Java 6 and JBoss 4.3" To view the discussion, visit: http://community.jboss.org/message/559903#559903 -------------------------------------------------------------- I'm sorry if this has been discussed before. I googled for it and found a few references, but they're old. I'm fairly new to JBoss. Trying to set up a simple Jax-ws web service undre JBoss AS 4.3 and Java 6. The choice of JBoss and Java version is because i want to match what we have in our production environment, so i'm limited to those versions. I got it to work first with very basic code, but once i added more meat to the service, including a couple of exceptions, i can't get it to work anymore. When i try to access the service or the WSDL, i get nothing back. server.log contains the following exception: 2010-08-31 17:10:14,507 DEBUG [org.jboss.wsf.stack.jbws.RequestHandlerImpl] handleWSDLRequest: jboss.ws:context=CacheTest,endpoint=GetVehicleInfo 2010-08-31 17:10:14,507 ERROR [org.jboss.wsf.stack.jbws.RequestHandlerImpl] *Error processing web service request* *java.lang.IllegalStateException: Cannot obtain endpoint meta data* at org.jboss.wsf.stack.jbws.RequestHandlerImpl.handleWSDLRequest(RequestHandlerImpl.java:520) at org.jboss.wsf.stack.jbws.RequestHandlerImpl.doGet(RequestHandlerImpl.java:144) at org.jboss.wsf.stack.jbws.RequestHandlerImpl.handleHttpRequest(RequestHandlerImpl.java:126) at org.jboss.wsf.stack.jbws.EndpointServlet.service(EndpointServlet.java:84) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:803) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.internalDoFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:290) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.doFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:206) at org.jboss.web.tomcat.filters.ReplyHeaderFilter.doFilter(ReplyHeaderFilter.java:96) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.internalDoFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:235) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.doFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:206) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapperValve.invoke(StandardWrapperValve.java:230) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContextValve.invoke(StandardContextValve.java:175) at org.jboss.web.tomcat.security.SecurityAssociationValve.invoke(SecurityAssociationValve.java:179) at org.jboss.web.tomcat.security.JaccContextValve.invoke(JaccContextValve.java:84) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardHostValve.invoke(StandardHostValve.java:128) at org.apache.catalina.valves.ErrorReportValve.invoke(ErrorReportValve.java:104) at org.jboss.web.tomcat.service.jca.CachedConnectionValve.invoke(CachedConnectionValve.java:157) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardEngineValve.invoke(StandardEngineValve.java:109) at org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteAdapter.service(CoyoteAdapter.java:241) at org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Processor.process(Http11Processor.java:844) at org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Protocol$Http11ConnectionHandler.process(Http11Protocol.java:580) at org.apache.tomcat.util.net.JIoEndpoint$Worker.run(JIoEndpoint.java:447) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:619) 2010-08-31 17:10:14,507 ERROR [org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase] Servlet.service() for servlet GetVehicleInfo threw exception java.lang.IllegalStateException: Cannot obtain endpoint meta data at org.jboss.wsf.stack.jbws.RequestHandlerImpl.handleWSDLRequest(RequestHandlerImpl.java:520) at org.jboss.wsf.stack.jbws.RequestHandlerImpl.doGet(RequestHandlerImpl.java:144) at org.jboss.wsf.stack.jbws.RequestHandlerImpl.handleHttpRequest(RequestHandlerImpl.java:126) at org.jboss.wsf.stack.jbws.EndpointServlet.service(EndpointServlet.java:84) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:803) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.internalDoFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:290) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.doFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:206) at org.jboss.web.tomcat.filters.ReplyHeaderFilter.doFilter(ReplyHeaderFilter.java:96) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.internalDoFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:235) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.doFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:206) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapperValve.invoke(StandardWrapperValve.java:230) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContextValve.invoke(StandardContextValve.java:175) at org.jboss.web.tomcat.security.SecurityAssociationValve.invoke(SecurityAssociationValve.java:179) at org.jboss.web.tomcat.security.JaccContextValve.invoke(JaccContextValve.java:84) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardHostValve.invoke(StandardHostValve.java:128) at org.apache.catalina.valves.ErrorReportValve.invoke(ErrorReportValve.java:104) at org.jboss.web.tomcat.service.jca.CachedConnectionValve.invoke(CachedConnectionValve.java:157) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardEngineValve.invoke(StandardEngineValve.java:109) at org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteAdapter.service(CoyoteAdapter.java:241) at org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Processor.process(Http11Processor.java:844) at org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Protocol$Http11ConnectionHandler.process(Http11Protocol.java:580) at org.apache.tomcat.util.net.JIoEndpoint$Worker.run(JIoEndpoint.java:447) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:619) Here's the definition for the Web Service call:     @WebMethod(operationName = "getInfoFromVin")     public pojo.Vehicle getInfoFromVin(@WebParam(name = "vin")     final String vin) throws SQLException, NamingException {         pojo.Vehicle veh = db.Vehicle.fromVin(vin);         System.out.println(veh);         return veh;     } I'm trying to keep this very simple... it's not production quality code, but a proof-of-concept app for caching data. At this point it's not caching anything yet, only doing database lookups. Once i get this to work, i'll add caching. Should i catch those exceptions and throw some other kind, maybe? The workarounds i was able to find in the Web had to do with copying jar files from the Metro distribution or from other places into lib/endorsed, but they didn't work for me. I'm suspecting that my problem is coming from using Java 6. If anyone can help me, i would be very grateful. Please let me know if you need more information. Any ideas? thank you. glauber -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/559903#559903] Start a new discussion in Beginner's Corner at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
