[jbossws-users] [JBossWS] - Re: trying to access a webservice - not working from either

I must say that your WSDL file looks very strange. It appears that for some reason that the method names are being treated as types. More on that in a second. The first thing I noticed was that JBossWS did not like List as a return type. When i deployed the web service I got this error: Caused by: com.sun.xml.bind.v2.runtime.IllegalAnnotationsException: 1 counts of | IllegalAnnotationExceptions | java.util.List is an interface, and JAXB can't handle interfaces. | this problem is related to the following location: | at java.util.List When I changed the return types to ArrayList, the error went away and the web service deployed just fine. Looking at my WSDL, one of the methods is defined by: <message name="POAddressManagerWS_getAddressByPostCode"> | <part name="arg0" type="xsd:string"/> | </message> | <message name="POAddressManagerWS_getAddressByPostCodeResponse"> | <part name="return" type="tns:arrayList"/> | </message> while for you it is defined as: <message name="POAddressManagerWS_getAddressByPostCode"> | <part element="tns:getAddressByPostCode" name="getAddressByPostCode" /> | </message> | - <message name="POAddressManagerWS_getAddressByText"> | <part element="tns:getAddressByText" name="getAddressByText" /> | </message> This explains the error you are getting: anonymous wrote : Exception in thread "main" org.jboss.ws.WSException: Cannot obtain java type mapping for: {http://session.address.cmmgroup.com/}getAddressByPostCode because there is no such type, hence no type mapping. Unfortunately, I don't know what to tell you to do to correct this. As I said, your WSDL looks way different from mine. And other than changing the return types to ArrayList, the only other thing I did differently was I did not code up the entity bean (I hard-coded the return of a ArrayList containing two strings). Also, I did not try the client. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4067515#...
