Sorry, forget all I said in my first post. To set the context root include jboss.xml in your jar file with the following inside it: <!DOCTYPE jboss PUBLIC "-//JBoss//DTD JBOSS 4.0//EN" "http://www.jboss.org/j2ee/dtd/jboss_4_0.dtd"> <context-root>xxxx</context-root> The alias portion should be the name of the endpoint class. So if your endpoint class is named yyyy.java, then your web service url will be: http://somehost/xxxx/yyyy I don't know of a way to change the alias portion from being the name of the endpoint class.
