WSDL Generation Error (XSD based approach...)

[sharadyadav]

Hi,

I'm trying to create a WSDL using Spring WS. I've followed instructions to the letter and I keep getting errors.

The config is:
<bean id="publish" class="org.springframework.ws.wsdl.wsdl11.DefaultW sdl11Definition">
<property name="schema" ref="schema"/>
<property name="portTypeName" value="publish"/>
<property name="targetNamespace" value="xyz"/>
<property name="locationUri" value="/publish.wsdl"/>
</bean>

<bean id="schema" class="org.springframework.xml.xsd.SimpleXsdSchema ">
<property name="xsd" value="/eal.xsd"/>
</bean>

I'm getting the following error. It is very frustrating. I have Xalan & all the dependent
jars in place. What is going on? I have spent 2 days and nothing has changed.

Hi,
please check your Xalan and Xerces versions and try to use latest versions as Xalan 2.7.0 and Xerces 2.8.1 . Also make sure other dependencies does not load old versions of Xalan and Xerces specially if you have Jaxen as a dependency.

[sharadyadav]

Thanks!

I have downloaded Xalan 2.7.1 and I have also downloaded Xerxes 2.9.1. Based on my classpath, the newer versions should get loaded before any older version.

I can check again, but just wanted to confirm if this is a Xalan & Xerxes issue or it can be something else.

Thanks,
Sharad

I tried to expose your XSD within a Maven2 project and got a different exception because you have used invalid namespace for XS ( i think it because of this Forum restrictions ) . With the correct namespace it worked fine with me and WSDL definition also generated. I couldn't find any other issue with your setting.

i think still you have problem with dependencies please double check .

[sharadyadav]

Thanks!

I had to edit the namespace because the forum doesnt allow me to include URL(s). I think the only problem might be the Xalan & Xerxes version.

If possible could you send me the exact version numbers for these parsers? It'll be most useful.

I'm on Spring 2.5, JDK 1.5.x and TOMCAT 5.5.


Thanks,
Sharad
