Web Sevice Auto Deployment

[ra...@jpmchase.com]

Hello I created a simple Web Application in WSAD and deployed it 
successfully in my WebSphere Test Environment that comes with WSAD. I ran 
axis AdminClient to deploy the web service and noted that  it created 
server-config.wsdd  under WEB-INF/classes on my workspace

 Then I created a WAR file  and deployed it in Websphere  Application 
Server .. I notice that my  DataInquiry   Web service is listed as one of the service . if I go the 
http://testserver:9080/WSWAR/services.( Remember I did not RUN the admin client to deploy the service on the application server)  when I 
try to invoke the service I am getting 

a RemoteException with an AxisFault shown below

AxisFault
 faultCode: {http://xml.apache.org/axis/}Client
 faultSubcode: 
 faultString: No such operation 'inquiryRequest'

My understanding was.. if  I have the service defined in the 
server-config.wsdd  I don't need to run the admin client  on the 
Application Server inorder to deploy the web service on the application 
server.. since it is defined on  server-config.wsdd .. axis will auto 
deploy the service..( I don't know the mechanism behind admin and version 
web servies , how they are auto deployed )

 PLEASE correct me if I am wrong ( I hope so)...  I wanted to run the 
AdminClient but I don't have any user-id and password for the server ..I 
have access only to the Web Sphere Admin Console. to deploy EAR or WAR 
files

Thanks a lot in advance for your help/
