Fwd: [Axis2] Can not deploy axis2.war in WebLogic Server 8.1 SP6, are there any suggestion, thanks a lot.

[Ramon Wang <ra...@gmail.com>]

 Hi all

I'm now using axis2 1.4 with weblogic 8.1 sp6, but I can not properly deploy
the axis2.war into weblogic. I have put the "weblogic.xml" into
axis2.war\WEB-INF, following is the weblogic.xml I'm using:


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

<!DOCTYPE weblogic-web-app
  PUBLIC "-//BEA Systems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 8.1//EN"
  "http://www.bea.com/servers/wls810/dtd/weblogic810-web-jar.dtd">

<weblogic-web-app>
 <container-descriptor>
    <prefer-web-inf-classes>true</prefer-web-inf-classes>
  </container-descriptor>
</weblogic-web-app>

When I start the weblogic server, I always see the following error logs in
the console:

<Error> <HTTP> <BEA-101216> <Servlet: "AxisServlet" failed to prelo
ad on startup in Web application: "axis2".

problem, thank you very much.
