Question

javax.xml.rpc.ServiceException: Provider com.sun.xml.rpc.client.ServiceFactoryImpl not found

Asked by: jrwalker2

I am attempting call a simple webservice through a client, but I continue to get the following exception. I am using JBoss as my application server. Everything compiles in Eclipse (Note I am using java 6).

1. Am I supposed to change the .classpath file so that the client knows about the ServiceFactoryImpl?
2. What jar inside of Jboss contains this class and how do I make this work?

Please help! Thanks!

Exception within Eclipse with the client is run:
--------------------------------------------------------
Exception in thread "main" javax.xml.rpc.ServiceException: Provider com.sun.xml.rpc.client.ServiceFactoryImpl not found

See if you can see a program called 'wsrunclient' in JBoss and try using that

by: jrwalker2Posted on 2008-05-25 at 08:27:40ID: 21642916

1. Can you give me an example on how to use this program please? I tried the following but got an exception (below).

wsrunclient.bat http://localhost:8080/EchoBeanService/EchoBean?wsdl "john"

2. Do I need to deploy the client inside of the same jar that packages Echo.class and EchoBean.class?

Thanks.

I really don't know what to do with it. You could post the batch file into the code snippet window

by: CEHJPosted on 2008-05-25 at 08:40:50ID: 21642950

I think the source of the problem is around this:

http://java.sun.com/webservices/docs/1.6/api/javax/xml/rpc/ServiceFactory.html#SERVICEFACTORY_PROPERTY

but i'm not sure. I think that might need to be set to the factory used by JBoss

by: jrwalker2Posted on 2008-05-25 at 08:46:59ID: 21642970

Is the following what you mean? I had this line in my client but it did not change anything

System.setProperty( "javax.xml.rpc.ServiceFactory", "com.sun.xml.rpc.client.ServiceFactoryImpl");

If not, can yoiu please give me a code example or steps on what you mean? Thanks

by: CEHJPosted on 2008-05-25 at 08:59:27ID: 21642999

That would be OK if it were the factory being used, but you might find that JBoss isn't using that. I think you're going to have to look into how JBoss is providing the service

by: shivaspkPosted on 2008-05-25 at 15:21:45ID: 21643826

jrwalker, first of all check if your web service is up and running.

http://localhost:8080/EchoBeanService/EchoBean?wsdl

when you open the above URL what do you see??

Lets go step by step, first get your service up and running.

if you are able to see a wsdl in the web browser than we can see how to create the client.

by: jrwalker2Posted on 2008-05-25 at 15:35:07ID: 21643851

Ok as you use eclipse, lets test if the web service is up and running , use Eclipse web service explorer for this task , here is my personal tutorial,

http://soa2world.blogspot.com/2008/05/soap-client-eclipse-web-service.html

once if this is successful later we can concentrate on writing the client.

Can you also provide outputs of various system outs which you have put in the Client class.

by: shivaspkPosted on 2008-05-25 at 15:46:27ID: 21643870

also one more thing don't use

@SOAPBinding(style = Style.RPC)

Thats to Expose a RPC style service, which is not preferable in fact JAX WS has the no proper support for those type of services. When you remove the above on you will get a Document/literal style web service which are considered best.

by: jrwalker2Posted on 2008-05-25 at 16:19:05ID: 21643939

I removed the @SOAPBinding statement. I also was able to see the wsdl in the web services explorer in eclipse. When I try to test the echo method (with the string "test"), I get the following exception:

The SOAP response failed schema validation. Please switch to the source view for the SOAP response in XML format.

Oh man thats wired, why didn't it show up the SOAP Response? any way did u get any exception on the server end when you made this request?.

by: jrwalker2Posted on 2008-05-25 at 16:31:40ID: 21643977

Yes. I get the following error output from my JBoss server when I make the request:

I think the EchoBean is unable to find the remote class

can you change this from

@WebService(endpointInterface = "com.spc.whp.samples.webservice.Echo")
@Remote(Echo.class)

to

@WebService(endpointInterface = "com.spc.whp.samples.webservice.Echo")
@Remote(com.spc.whp.samples.webservice.Echo.class)

Also before going any further I just want to know what exactly you are trying to do? are you trying to create a stateless session bean which is also exposed as a web service??

if thats the case then your remote interface class is inappropriate your classes must look like this

Try the below code only if my above change specified is failing because I have not done much coding in EJB 3 :)

Echo
---------
package com.spc.whp.samples.webservice;
 
import java.rmi.Remote;
 
import javax.jws.WebMethod;
import javax.jws.WebService;
import javax.jws.soap.SOAPBinding;
import javax.jws.soap.SOAPBinding.Style;
 
@WebService
@Remote
public interface Echo extends Remote {
        String echo(String e);
}
 
EchoBean
---------
package com.spc.whp.samples.webservice;
 
 
import javax.ejb.Remote;
import javax.ejb.Stateless;
import javax.jws.WebService;
 
@Stateless
@WebService(endpointInterface = "com.spc.whp.samples.webservice.Echo")
public class EchoBean implements Echo{
        public String echo(String e) {
                return "Web Service Echo + " + e;
        }
}

Yes. My goal is to create a stateless session ejb that is exposed as a web service. I originally followed this example (http://www.regdeveloper.co.uk/2007/01/23/ejb_web_services/). I tried your first suggestion, but I got the same error as before. So I tried your second suggestion...

There was an error at the line (@Remote) in the Echo interface ("Type mismatch: cannot convert from Remote to Annotation"). So I commented it out.

I'm very confused why this is happening, but I am getting the following error from jboss.

Notes on what I have done previously:
1. jboss-common-client.jar is built inside of my jar file. I do this because I got an exception that said that the the Logger could not be found
2. jboss-saaj.jar was copied from <JBOSS_HOME>\client to <JBOSS_HOME>\lib\endorsed
3. Installed jre is jre1.6.0_06
4. JAVA_HOME environment variable is C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_10
5. CLASSPATH environment variable is
.;C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_10\lib\ext\QTJava.zip;C:\Documents and Settings\jwalker1\Desktop\javaee.jar;
6. This is what jboss outputs when it first starts up:

Here is a complete code I developed and executed successfully in Glass fish try in Jboss later we can see if we face any issues.

Note:

1) BeanLocal class may not be any use it was auto generated.
2) if you see the remote definition you can @web service and @Remote are added they are must for successful deployment of EJB and web service.

I really think that I am missing some configuration with JBoss, because even with your code, I get the following error:

which version of Jboss are you using?

and how are you deploying these? you need to have EAR and deploy that in Jboss are you doing this?

by: jrwalker2Posted on 2008-05-25 at 19:50:32ID: 21644419

I using jboss-4.2.0

Is there an easy way to create an ear file? Maven 2 maybe?

by: shivaspkPosted on 2008-05-25 at 19:53:22ID: 21644426

EJB's are supposed to be packaged in EAR (Enterprise Archives) for deploying under any application server. you are trying to deploy only the EJB jar only? ya I had done that in WAS and Web logic long long back, any way make sure you are doing similar to this tutorial

http://java.boot.by/scbcd5-guide/apbs07.html

by: jrwalker2Posted on 2008-05-25 at 20:13:56ID: 21644468

Thanks for your help shivaspk, but I still get the same exception as before even after packaging the jar inside of an ear file.

Any additional suggestions are greatly appreciated,

by: jrwalker2Posted on 2008-05-25 at 21:07:58ID: 21644594

I'm having trouble viewing the xml.

Is this the correct url (because I can't see the xml in the browser)?

http://localhost:8080/EchoBeanRemote/EchoBean?wsdl

by: jrwalker2Posted on 2008-05-25 at 21:23:48ID: 21644608

Sorry. It is the same url:

http://localhost:8080/EchoBeanService/EchoBean?wsdl

I am confused as to where the "EchoBeanService" in the url comes from.

by: shivaspkPosted on 2008-05-26 at 08:09:10ID: 21646754

yes that the URL : http://localhost:8080/EchoBeanService/EchoBean?wsdl

This will be created by these as default

@WebService(endpointInterface = "test.EchoBeanRemote")
public class EchoBean implements EchoBeanRemote, EchoBeanLocal {

you can change the service name using serviceName="yourserviceName"

is the service up and running?

by: jrwalker2Posted on 2008-05-26 at 13:28:56ID: 21647957

Yes I got it up and running...I had a corrupt installation of jboss. Thanks for all your help
