That guide is for JAX-RPC, JBossWS 1.0.x, this is a more relevant guide ( http://tddell.dyndns.org/mediawiki/index.php/JAX-WS_User_Guide The JBossWS version you're using is JBoss 2.x (JAX-WS), alot of it is not applicable (although some of it is though) When I meant POJO I meant as in stateless EJB POJO in your web.xml, you're mapping your webservice as a servlet yet your servlet class does not extend GenericServlet or implement Servlet. Thus, this is more of a servlet error moreso than a web service error. basically, forget everything and do this (don't put it a war, for now...since this is a simple helloworld) | package testService; | @Stateless | @WebService( serviceName="TestService", name="Testing", | targetNamespace="urn:Testing" ) | @SOAPBinding( style = SOAPBinding.Style.DOCUMENT, | use = SOAPBinding.Use.LITERAL, | parameterStyle=SOAPBinding.ParameterStyle.WRAPPED) | public class TestUI { | @WebMethod() | public String Test(String tString) { | return "Hello " + tString; | } | } | As opposed to putting it in a war, I would recommend first putting it in a jar byitself. Just drop the jar in the deploy directory and it should deploy. After the webservice runtime picks up the webservice, simply go to http://localhost:8080/jbossws/services you should see the wsdl for your test service there View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4015173#...
