setProperty must be overridden by all subclasses of SOAPMessage error using JBoss 4.2.2GA

Question

I was trying to implement web services using the jboss. I had written server side files and tried to generate the wsdl file by placing the files in deploy folder. On running the JBoss(4.2.2GA), wsdl is getting created and I am able to access the wsdl by giving the link in internet explorer. Then I created the source files by using the Web Services/Web Service Client Wizard in Eclipse. When I was trying to call the exposed methods from the client side code, am getting the following error:

I had found this link which deals with the same topic 'http://lists.jboss.org/pipermail/jbossws-issues/2009-May/005421.html'

I am not understanding what to do. Need help !!! Thanks -Aj

Answer 1

The issue has been resolved. Configuration I used:

1. Eclipse IDE 3.3.0
2. JBoss-4.2.2 GA

3.Libraries used in lib/endorsed :

• jboss-saaj.jar
• jboss-jaxws.jar
• jboss-jaxrpc.jar
• jaxb-api-2.1.9.jar
• xercesImpl.jar
• xalan.jar
• serializer.jar

Make sure the VM configuration is given for the client file from which the call to the wsdl exposed methods is done. That is, including of '-Djava.endorsed.dirs=jboss-4.2.2.GA\lib\endorsed' at VM arguments.

I tried running the client file by having saaj.jar and jboss-saaj.jar. It was giving rise to conflicts, and on removing saaj.jar, the problem was solved and the issue resolved.
