WSDLException On Websphere 6.1

[ravkrr]

Hi guys,

I have created a small Web Service which runs fine on Tomcat, but fails on WebSphere.

I initially got a parser exception

     DocumentBuilderFactoryImpl incompatible with javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory

, which was due to the class loading. Hence, I have changed the classloading to the following

I am now getting the following error

 E   [Servlet Error]-[spring-ws]: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'customerSearch': Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is WSDLException: faultCode=CONFIGURATION_ERROR: No Java extensionType found to represent a '{http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema}schema' element in the context of a 'javax.wsdl.Types'.:

Can you please let me know what should be done to get this corrected? Also, it would great if the solution is something that would work for both Tomcat and Websphere.

Cheers

Ok,
to get it to work on WebSphere, the following classloader order had to be used

classloader.PNG


also, the following jar had to be excluded from the build

<exclusion>
                	<groupId>xml-apis</groupId>
                	<artifactId>xml-apis</artifactId>
                </exclusion>

Hope this will help someone else in the future.

Cheers
