RE: is someone using axis-c web services in production ?

[Philippe Torrelli <ph...@alcatel-lucent.fr>]

 

Hello,

 

As I mentionned at the end of my mail I also tried with the code from the
SVN 

repository and also had crashes.

 

Based on the answers It seems to me that nobody is running Web service based
on Axis-C in a 

production environment.

I do not use the server side of Axis C++ (not Axis2 C++), but I will say
that 1.5 is very old. You will want to get the code from the subversion
repository. It is much more stable than 1.5 or 1.6 beta. At least this has
been our experience with the client.

Subject: is someone using axis-c web services in production ?

 

Hello,

 

I tried to test axis-C 1.5.0 that we planned  to rely on to deploy C (++)
web services, to find out that the httpd 

server crashes very often, even with sample services .. ( most of the time
in calls to free ) .

 

It doesn’t seem to be a problem when using the apache module,  but the
module forks a 

new process when it handles a call to a web service, which is not efficient
enough for the hardware on which we planned 

to host these services, and also prevents us to for example share a pool of
connections to our data base among our .so …

 

Is there a stable and working  http transport available, or are people out
there just using the apache module ? or using axis-c only to call

Web services ? 

 

A very easy way to reproduce is to download and install the binary release,
use soapui to send bursts of calls to the ‘echo server’, the http

transport very soon crashes. I used the very default parameters, tried using
rest as well as soap action mapping..

 

I had the same kind of results using a recent svn version that I recompiled.

 

Anyone has success with deploying web services in production with axis C ? 

 

TIA

 

Philippe.
