Issues trying to run CXF 2.1.3 with JBoss

[John <li...@johndubchak.com>]

Hi,

I am trying to embed CXF 2.1.3 inside an ear running on JBoss.  I've 
included the required cxf jar files inside my ear and am configuring a 
custom class loader that puts those jar files onto the ear's classpath 
at run-time.

However, when I try to deploy a Service implementation (that works 
standalone) using the Endpoint.publish method, I am getting the 
following exception:

 Caused by: javax.xml.ws.WebServiceException: Unable to load Provider: 
Failed to load javax.xml.ws.spi.Provider:

It is trying to load the JBoss WS implementations, which has me 
confused.  I've consulted the site documentation about installing inside 
JBoss, but there's little there to assist me.

I know others, on the list, use CXF with JBoss so I am hoping someone 
can set me straight.

JBoss 4.2.3
JDK 1.5.0_16
Mac OS X

Thanks,
John
