Apache Soap RPCRouter problems
Hi there,
I would really appreciate if someone can help me solve this problem
related to running a simple Apache SOAP Sample.
I downloaded and installed the following
a)Apache Web Server
b)Jakarta Tomcat 3.3.1
c)Apache SOAP 2.2 and all the related JAR files like Xerces, Activation
etc.
I followed instructions as detailed in the web site.
I could successfully deploy the web service. The URL
http://localhost:8080/soap/servlet/rpcrouter works fine.
But when i trying to run the Greetings sample client, i get the
following error -
--------------------------------------------------------------------
[SOAPException: faultCode=SOAP-ENV:Protocol; msg=Unsupported response
content type "text/html", must be: "text/xml". Respon
se was:

I went to the "troubleshooting" site of Apache SOAP and the solution
suggested for this kind of error was not of much help.
I am stuck with this problem for quite sometime now and would appreciate
if anyone can throw some light on this.

What does your tomcat.sh modification look like? I believe I had a
similar problem when I tried to add the soap.jar to the classpath within
the tomcat.sh. You probably have a classpath issue, or possible conflict
with soap.jar. Also, I have experienced some troubles trying the
server.xml approach setting with Tomcat 3.3, and have found the soap.war
install approach to work best.

Hi Vibha
You don't need to find parser.jar file, simply set the classpath in such a
way that xerces.jar is the first entry in the classpath.

Hello Christian Dutaret,
Thanks for the response.
I checked in the entire <TOMCAT_INSTALL> directory and i do not find any
"parser.jar" file there.
Does Tomcat 3.3.1 has some other name for this file? As i find "tomcat.jar" in
<TOMCAT_INSTALL>/lib directory.
Let me know.
thanks

Re: Apache Soap RPCRouter problems
Posted by Christian Dutaret <ch...@wanadoo.fr>.
This sounds like an XML parser version
Tomcat 3.x uses a JAXP 1.0 parser (parser.jar) which has some different
method signatures as a jaxp 1.1 compliant parser like xerces.
If you put xerces.jar in your tomcat/lib directory, it won't be seen as
tomcat sets its classpath in alphabetic order. Any caller expecting a jaxp
1.1 method will call the jaxp1.0 method instead and fail.
Just try to put all soap related jars in tomcat/lib directory, then rename
parser.jar to zparser.jar and restart tomcat. This should do the trick.
Otherwise you can switch to Tomcat 4, which uses a jaxp1.1 parser.
Hope this helps

Re: Apache Soap RPCRouter problems

What does your tomcat.sh modification look like? I believe I had a
similar problem when I tried to add the soap.jar to the classpath within
the tomcat.sh. You probably have a classpath issue, or possible conflict
with soap.jar. Also, I have experienced some troubles trying the
server.xml approach setting with Tomcat 3.3, and have found the soap.war
install approach to work best.
