[jboss-user] [JBossWS] - HELP! Can not deploy even the simplest web service

[a3leggeddog]

Hello -

I'm very new to JBoss (done a lot of Tomcat), so please forgive the question if it is really basic.  However, I am having the most frustrating time installing, configuring and deploying a WAR to JBoss.  First, I'm using JBoss 4.2.2GA, WS 2.0.3GA, and Java 1.6 running on Windows.

I have tried following the instructions both on the JBoss site and postings I've found online to get everything installed, but the instructions never seem to match exactly what I have.  For example, trying to compile the test suite once I think I have the JBossWS installed.  Either files are missing from the package I downloaded from the JBoss site, or the Ant task fails with errors.  I have copied the various JaxB JARs to the endorsed LIB, etc.

I think I have JBoss and JBossWS installed correctly, but I don't know for sure.

I then wrote a simple web service in Eclipse (Ganymede) and tried to deploy it using Eclipse's built in deploy and by dropping the WAR in the deploy directory.  When I do, I get the following error:
16:51:34,796 ERROR [MainDeployer] Could not start deployment: file:/C:/jboss-4.2.2.GA/server/default/deploy/EchoService.war

I have been struggling with this for days, and I really don't know what I'm doing wrong or what state my environment is in.  I would sincerely appreciate ANY help anyone can give - I am truly at the end of my rope.

Thanks,
Seth
