I have a WSDL file from which I have created Server Side Code Skeleton. Now after modification of these skeleton Java classes I have deleted the WSDL file from the project folder. Now, I am trying to prepare a web service for these classes. I m using Axis engine and apache tomcat 5.5 for this which is embedded with the eclipse. But when I start this I m getting the following error.

IWAB0489E Error when deploying Web service to Axis runtime axis-admin failed with {http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/}Server.userException java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException

Can any one help. What is this error??

  • are you using eclipse and an internal application server instance? – guido May 27 '11 at 12:39
  • Is there anything more to the log? I'd expect to see an exception showing the *cause* of the InvocationTargetException. – Jon Skeet May 27 '11 at 12:40
  • No, there is nothing more in the log , Jon. – Stuti May 27 '11 at 12:43
  • @Stuti Why did you delete the WSDL file, and what changes did you make to the skeleton classes? – bakoyaro Nov 01 '11 at 21:50
  • @bakoyaro I want to recreate the WSDL file with the code at the time of publishing web service. – Stuti Nov 11 '11 at 08:39

    I have encountered similar issues in eclipse before when using the automated generation for the web-service both client and server side. My code was pretty small so I created a new workspace and project and copied my java file to the new project and re-executed the wsdl2java wizard and it worked. It seemed to be some sort of caching issue within the tomcat instance of eclispe. I never found why tho! – Stainedart Nov 14 '11 at 02:45
  • @Carl Thanks.. for suggestion !! I hope it will work. I will check that and will post response. – Stuti Nov 14 '11 at 06:13
  • Suggestion: Put a breakpoint on java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException and run the server in debug mode... then you can hopefully see the underlying error. Not sure why you're deleting the WSDL, though. Surely there is little point in auto generating it as your skeleton is fixed to this WSDL? – davidfrancis Dec 07 '11 at 17:01
  • Seriously, Axis hasn't been updated in over 5 years. For the love of all that is Java, please don't use it. There are plenty of other SOAP options out there that are much, much better. Spring-ws, Apache CXF...Even Axis2 would be better. – Mike Yockey Dec 20 '11 at 19:24

I had this problem before, the solution?, use JAX-WS instead Axis.

I think you are trying to call some method from the client skeleton which you've generated from the wsdl file. If you are calling any of the methods which are exposed, make sure that the parameters which you are sending are correct.

userExceptions mostly come with sending wrong params

From my experience: Check this

invocationTargetException occurs when some of the dependency class might be missed in the cass path(build path) of the webservice project(i mean, the webservice might be used some external jars or external projects as a reference,if suppose those are not in the class path(build path), it shows invocationTargetException exception while building webservice).so make sure all the dependency classes/projects must be in the webservice project class path(build path).
