Does xFire absoloutely require Java 5?

I have a server that runs several domains but runs Java 1.4.2.

When I try to run a Web Service on that 1.4.2. server (that runs fine on Java 5), I get the following error:

org.codehaus.xfire.XFireRuntimeException: error creating wsdl. Nested exception is javax.wsdl.WSDLException: WSDLException: faultCode=PARSER_ERROR: Problem parsing '- WSDL Document -'.: can't declare any more prefixes in this context

--------------------

I don't see that the Codehaus site offers any support so maybe I'm stuck?

Mork,
If you temporarily restart your site with Sun JDK 1.5 does the same exact web service suddenly work? Try checking your server log, do you see any exceptions like "Unknown class version 49, expected 48" or something like that?

Thanks for writing back.

I went ahead and updated the actual Linux server to Java 1.5. That was harder (due to my inexperience) than writing the Web Service!

Now, finally, everything works.

I think I also had a problem with conflicting lib files in the lib folder.

Thanks again for your reply.

Glad it's working, that can be tricky at times.
