I am running MyEclipse 8.5 on Linux to develop web services using JBoss 4.3.0.

When I click on "Launch SOAP Web Services Explorer" nothing happens -- the explorer doesn't open. I've checked that my web service is deployed. What am I doing wrong? Is there some setting I need to set to get the explorer to work?

I have a client app that I'm using to query a simple service. The wsdl validates when I create the web service client, and all the files seem to be created. However, when I run the client, I get this error:
" com.sun.xml.ws.server.UnsupportedMediaException: Unsupported Content-Type: text/html;charset=utf-8 Supported ones are: [text/xml]"
I've examined all the xml files and I don't see any references to html anywhere. This is puzzling, because it was working earlier today. Have I inadvertently changed some MyEclipse setting or is this a glitch in JBoss?

Thank you for your help,
Brian

Brian,
Are there any errors logged in the log file, located at workspace dir > .metadata > .log, when you launch SOAP web service explorer? Please clear your log file, save it and then launch the SOAP explorer to get the relevant errors.

This could be caused when using soap11. Can you try changing the binding to 12 as suggested in the following link -
1. http://old.nabble.com/Unsupported-Content-Type:-text-xml--charset%3D%22utf-8%22-td22676562.html
Let me know if that works for you.

The log file says there's no local browser, which is probably true. No big deal; I can write small test clients that work under Tomcat. On the second problem: I haven't found where to specify the version of soap yet. Tomcat works just fine, but the same client fails when I use Jboss. I'm thinking that my edition of Jboss (4.3.0) may be the problem. Possibly it only accepts soap1.1. Still digging on that one.

Thanks for the help,
Brian

Brian,
I could not replicate this at my end using JBoss 4.2.3GA. The same client worked as expected on both tomcat and JBoss.
Can you list out the steps in detail to replicate your issue?

I found the problem. When I tried to connect to Jboss, I was getting back an html page with an error message. This wasn't xml, so I got an error that it was invalid content. I used Fiddler to take a look at the html and found out that my web service hadn't deployed completely. I don't have that fixed yet, but at least I'm closer.

Thanks for the help,
Brian

Are there any errors in log file when deploying the webservice?

I found some errors at the time that the deploy was taking place.

Those were the first errors, then there were a few more a little bit later. I don't know if they're related.

I installed JBoss 5.1.0. It's giving me a different set of errors and warnings:

Can you try the workaround given in the following link -
http://community.jboss.org/message/339896#339896
Let me know how that works for you.

I tried copying saaj-impl.jar and saaj.jar to the client directory, but that didn't help. I ended up re-installing JBoss, which seems to have solved the problem. Somehow, I must have gotten a bad build the first time.
Thanks for your help,
Brian
