Tutorial

[opinioag]

Thanks Arjen , i was able to finish the spring ws tutorial http://static.springframework.org/sp.../tutorial.html.

Here are the steps i did for those who have the same problem.
(“plugin … does not exist” error, maven could not download the files from the repo)

1. removed the ${HOME}/.m2/repository
2. edited my maven2 settings.xml, i added my proxy settings (wer using web proxy at the office)
3. executed "maven install" with error:
[ERROR] BUILD ERROR
[INFO] Failed to resolve artifact.
Missing:
----------
1) javax.activation:activation:jar:1.0.2

4. downloaded activation jar version 1.0.2 and manually installed it
5. executed "maven install" again and the command created a new maven project

I have a new question though: HOW could i IMPORT the genereated project to ECLIPSE IDE?

[Arjen Poutsma]

Just run mvn eclipse:eclipse, that will create a project for you, which you can import into your workspace. See http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-eclipse-plugin/

Hi There,

After following
http://static.springframework.org/sp.../tutorial.html
and
http://static.springframework.org/sp...tutorial2.html

I managed to get http://localhost:8080/holidayService/holiday.wsdl generated. But inside the binding, soapAction=""

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

</beans>

Any idea what could be missed?

Thanks

hey jstone,

i have the same wsdl as you do and it is working just fine with me

....
<soap:operation soapAction=""/>
<wsdl:input name="HolidayRequest">
<soap:body use="literal"/>
</wsdl:input>
....
have you tried testing it? log the name, age, date, etc and try using soapUI v1.7.6 as a sample client to consume your web service

or are you referring to the sample wsdl that is in the tutorial?, then yes it is different and i dont know y it still works.

[jstone]

Hey Opinioag,

Thanks for the heads-up. Yeah, I was expecting
<soap:operation soapAction="http://mycompany.com/RequestHoliday"/>
to show up as being described in Chapter 3
http://static.springframework.org/sp.../tutorial.html

I tried soapUI and it works well with another sample code (echoservice) that I was playing around. But it seems to have type problem with "date" in holiday service. I fed in

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:sch="http://mycompany.com/hr/schemas">
   <soapenv:Header/>
   <soapenv:Body>
      <sch:HolidayRequest>
         <sch:Holiday>
            <sch:StartDate>2007-06-10</sch:StartDate>
            <sch:EndDate>2007-09-20</sch:EndDate>
         </sch:Holiday>
         <sch:Employee>
            <sch:Number>1</sch:Number>
            <sch:FirstName>Hi</sch:FirstName>
            <sch:LastName>There</sch:LastName>
         </sch:Employee>
      </sch:HolidayRequest>
   </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

And I saw the error in soapUI reads like

<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
   <SOAP-ENV:Header/>
   <SOAP-ENV:Body>
      <SOAP-ENV:Fault>
         <faultcode>SOAP-ENV:Server</faultcode>
         <faultstring xml:lang="en">Unparseable date: ""</faultstring>      </SOAP-ENV:Fault>
   </SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

Any idea how to fix it?

Thanks in advance!

Hey guys,

I am trying the jaxb2 marshaller as shown in the tutorial http://static.springframework.org/sp.../html/oxm.html
I have encountered this error when viewing the wsdl:

org.springframework.beans.factory.CannotLoadBeanCl assException: Error loading class [org.springframework.oxm.jaxb.Jaxb2Marshaller] for bean with name 'jaxb2Marshaller' defined in ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/spring-ws-servlet.xml]: problem with class file or dependent class; nested exception is java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/springframework/oxm/mime/MimeMarshaller

I need help and i dont understand the error.
what is this MimeMarshaller? and where could i get it?


Thanks,

[Arjen Poutsma]

The MimeMarshaller is part of the spring-oxm module.

I've finally had the time to finish writing the tutorial for Spring-WS. It starts at http://static.springframework.org/sp...tutorial1.html (old stuff), an continues at http://static.springframework.org/sp...tutorial2.html (new stuff).

Let me know what you think!

Hi Arjen,

I can't access the link. It says:

Not Found

The requested URL /spring-ws/site/tutorial/tutorial2.html was not found on this server.

[sulabhapw]

Thanks Arjen.
I was trying the example given in tutorial 1 with ant build file to create ear & deployed it to WAS6.
When I'm accessing wsdl file from the localhost url, its giving me exception as:

Error 404: SRVE0203E: Servlet [spring-ws]: org.springframework.ws.transport.http.MessageDispa tcherServlet was found, but is missing another required class. SRVE0206E: This error typically implies that the servlet was originally compiled with classes which cannot be located by the server. SRVE0187E: Check your classpath to ensure that all classes required by the servlet are present

I read previous posts regarding similar issue. The above exception suggests to check the classpath. But the classpath for the deployed ear has spring related jars.

Is there anything that I'm missing?

Thanks,
Sulabha
