Subject: Resolving an issue of the deployment of wsdd using Axis in Command

Hi,

I've been running through the tutorials and keep hitting similar errors 
regarding accessing classes from within a Jar file.

I'm trying to deploy the AdminService via the AdminClient as described 
in the tutorial.  I can access webservices via regular 
http://localhost:8080/axis/*.jws and access 
http://localhost:8080/axis/happyaxis.jsp which describes all the needed 
components as being installed and detected.

Once I try and run the command to deploy the wsdd I get the following 
error: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: 
org/apache/axis/client/AdminClient

This exception is trigged by the following command inside the folder 
(\axis\WEB-INF\classes\samples\stock):
java -cp "%AXISCLASSPATH%" org.apache.axis.client.AdminClient 
-lhttp://localhost:8080/axis/services/AdminService deploy.wsdd

My setup is as follows:

I'm running Tomcat 6.0 and Axis 1_4 on an Windows XP installation.

I've set my environment variables up in the following manner:
Variable Name: AXIS_HOME
Variable Value: C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 
6.0\webapps\Axis1_4\axis-1_4
Variable Name: AXIS_LIB
Variable Value: %AXIS_HOME%\lib
Variable Name: AXISCLASSPATH
Variable Value: 
%AXIS_LIB%\axis.jar;%AXIS_LIB%\commons-discovery-0.2.jar;%AXIS_LIB%\commons-logging-1.0.4.jar;%AXIS_LIB%\jaxrpc.jar;%AXIS_LIB%\saaj.jar;%AXIS_LIB%\log4j-1.2.8.jar;%AXIS_LIB%\xml-apis.jar;%AXIS_LIB%\xercesImpl.jar 


NB: (I have changed the .jar files on commons-discovery.jar to 
commons-discovery-0.2.jar and on the commons-logging.jar to 
commons-logging-1.0.4.jar)

The servlet setup on the web.xml file is the same as the defaulted 
web.xml in the Axis distribution.  This setup includes the Axis Admin 
Servlet and the servlet mapping.  servlet-class point to 
"org.apache.axis.transport.http.AdminServlet" and the servlet 
url-pattern in the servlet mapping pointing to "/servlet/AdminServlet".

Once inside the AXIS_LIB folder, I can see all the .jar files that have 
been specified by the AXISCLASSPATH.

In my project in Eclipse when importing 
org.apache.axis.client.AdminClient I can see there are methods for 
undeployment (undeployService() and undeployHandler()) but no specific 
methods listed for deployment.  Is this correct?


Regarding the java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError, I understand why its 
happening but troubleshooting the issue is becoming problematic.  I've 
checked the locations of the environment variables and checked the 
commands that i'm running and the location with which i'm running.

Can you help?

Thanks,
Martin
