HTTP 404 Error - Issue

[sunil_g1]

Have deployed our Spring-WS on Weblogic 9.2 on Windows environment. The spring-ws jars have been copied to server lib directory. The the app. is deployed at the webcontext caobshared. There were no issues while deploying. Am testing the service from a soapUI tool. The url I am using is http://localhost:7002/caobshared/services. Am getting HTTP 404 errors. I do not see any errors or any debug statements I have in the webservice methods in the server log. Believe I am missing something or specifying incorrectly.
We need to make a decision on using Spring-WS soon, based on the POC I working on. Any help or suggestions highly appreciated.

The 404 means your web application didn't deploy at all or it didn't deploy as "caobshared".

Are you sure there are no errors when this webapp is deployed? Do you see Spring get initialized when you deploy the app?

Is it possible your webapp isn't being deployed as "caobshared"? Maybe it deployed as root? Maybe try http://localhost:7002/services

[sunil_g1]

The web app. has been deployed successfully. I can see the welcome page at the url http://localhost:7002/caobshared

I have deployed the webapp on Tomcat 5.5, and I still get the same HTTP 404error. In the server console I see the foll. message while testing one of the webservice methods.
- No endpoint mapping found for [SaajSoapMessage {http://www.boea.com/caob/webservices/documentation/schemas}GetDocumentListRequest]

Have updated the servlet xml file to include the PayloadRootAnnotationMethodEndpointMapping interceptors as follows:

<bean class="org.springframework.ws.server.endpoint.mapp ing.PayloadRootAnnotationMethodEndpointMapping">
<property name="interceptors">
<list>
<bean class="org.springframework.ws.server.endpoint.inte rceptor.PayloadLoggingInterceptor"/>
<bean class="org.springframework.ws.soap.server.endpoint .interceptor.PayloadValidatingInterceptor">
<property name="schema" value="/xsd/DocumentService.xsd"/>
<property name="validateRequest" value="true"/>
<property name="validateResponse" value="true"/>
</bean>
</list>
</property>
<property name="order" value="1"/>
</bean>

[RayKrueger]

aaah ok, I forgot Spring-WS will give a 404 if it can't find the endpoint; sorry.

You're using the PayloadRootAnnotationMethodEndpointMapping and it's saying it can't find an endpoint for {http://www.boea.com/caob/webservices/documentation/schemas}GetDocumentListRequest

This means that you need to have an endpoint in your application context that is annotated with the @Endpoint that has at least one method annotated with: @PayloadRoot(localPart = "GetDocumentListRequest", namespace = "http://www.boea.com/caob/webservices/documentation/schemas")

For example...

@Endpoint
public class YourEndpoint {

  @PayloadRoot(localPart = "GetDocumentListRequest", namespace = "http://www.boea.com/caob/webservices/documentation/schemas")
  public DocumentList getDocumentList(...)
  }
}

And again, this bean endpoint has to be in your spring-ws application context xml...
[code]
<bean class="com.boea....YourEndpoint"/>

[sunil_g1]

Thanks for the quick reply. Here are the webservice methods which are annotated. Any other pointers? I know am pretty close. Appreciate your help.

@Endpoint
public class DocumentationServiceEndpoint implements DocumentationWebServiceConstants

@PayloadRoot(localPart = "GetDocumentListRequest", namespace = "http://www.baeo.com/caob/webservices/documentation/schemas")
GetDocumentListResponse getDocumentList(GetDocumentListRequest request)

@PayloadRoot(localPart = "StagePackagesRequest", namespace = "http://www.baeo.com/caob/webservices/documentation/schemas")
StagePackagesResponse stagePackages(StagePackagesRequest request)

@PayloadRoot(localPart = "GetPackageListRequest", namespace = "http://www.baeo.com/caob/webservices/documentation/schemas")
GetPackageListResponse getPackageList(GetPackageListRequest request)

@PayloadRoot(localPart = "UpdateDocumentsRequest", namespace = "http://www.baeo.com/caob/webservices/documentation/schemas")
UpdateDocumentsResponse updateDocuments(UpdateDocumentsRequest request)

In the spring servlet xml I have the bean endpoint as:

<bean id="documentationService" class="com.boea.caob.ws.documentation.Documentatio nService"/>

<bean id="documentationServiceEndpoint" class="com.boea.caob.ws.DocumentationServiceEndpoi nt">
<description>
This endpoint handles the DocumentService Web Service messages using JAXB2 marshalling.
</description>
<constructor-arg ref="documentationService"/>
</bean>

[sunil_g1]

Sorry, the namespace string is http://www.boea.com/caob/webservices...tation/schemas

[RayKrueger]

You have a typo in your schemas

Your request document is using
http://www.boea.com/caob/webservices...tation/schemas

Your endpoints are annotated to use
http://www.baeo.com/caob/webservices...tation/schemas

[sunil_g1]

Mistake while pasting it here But it indeed is http://www.boea.com/caob/webservices...tation/schemas

[RayKrueger]

Fix those annotations and redeploy the webapp. Does that fix it?

[sunil_g1]

No it did not work. The code was refering to the correct annotations, it was a mistake while pasting it here.
