Top Down Web Service -Final Step [message #482534]

Hi,

I have developed my simple web service as described in this WSDL (provided by vendor) . I have published it here for ref: http://docs.google.com/View?id=dc8qf54c_297fsj74wgw.
To avail of their service I need to implement and deploy this web service.

I have developed using the Eclipse Wiki top down tutorial as an example and I just replaced the sample WSDL in the tutorial with the one attached to this post. The test client in Tutorial works fine with new WSDL etc. The tutorial is simple and easy to follow and the service appears correctly in Java Resources etc. , ref: http://wiki.eclipse.org/Creating_a_Top-Down_Java_Web_Service _Skeleton_from_a_WSDL_Document

My question is how do I deploy this correctly to a Tomcat server and have my methods publicly accessible. If I export the project as a .war, deploy this on a server (deploy .war with java project name as .war name) and I then click on the service from Tomcat manager I get a 404 error. The class/service I particularly want to expose is AccountEventHandlerSoapImpl. What is the correct endpoint URL for this service and correct way to publicly expose this to WWW?

Thanks,
Tori

Hi,

Apologies, the 'full stop' at the end of the link to the WSDL was preventing the link form working... here it is:

Hi Tori,

If you are using Apache axis to create your web service, then I think a
new WSDL file would be generated in the WebContent/wsdl folder that has
the correct endpoint address to send SOAP messages to.

The WSDL file should have a service element that looks like this:
<wsdl:service name="AccountEventHandler">
<documentation xmlns="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/">Interface
definition for a client hosted web service to receive notification of
account events. Click here for a <a
href="https://www.esendex.com/secure/registration/evaluation.aspx"
title="SMS Service Trial">free trial</a>.</documentation>
<wsdl:port binding="tns:AccountEventHandlerSoap"
name="AccountEventHandlerSoap">
<soap:address
location=" http://localhost:8080/MyService/services/AccountEventHandler Soap"/>
</wsdl:port>
</wsdl:service>

( http://localhost:8080/MyService/services/AccountEventHandler Soap is my
endpoint URL).

You can use the web services explorer to test this WSDL and send
messages to your endpoint.

Hi Mark...

Thank you very much for replying.. I made a few beginner mistakes. I didnt fully understand how axis2 worked I had packaged the src, all jars including the axis jars into a .war and deployed.

I didn't realise I need to install Axis2 separately on Tomcat. Once i did this i could deploy it as a .aar file and everything worked.

Thanks again for taking the time to reply...
