SOAP-ENV:Server.BadTargetObjectURI

[Thomas Krogh <th...@upright.no>]

Hi

Im running my first webservice (Apache httpserver 1.3.22/Tomcat 4.0.1/Apache soap 2.2/jdk1.3.1_01) , a sample app. Im receiving a fault from my localhost server (over the web everything works fine connecting to the XMethods server, receiving a sensible reply. Its only my local installation not working). "Exchange" (Exchange.class) is the service the server should invoke:

Command prompt output:
C:\soap_test>java Client
invoke service
  URL= http://localhost:8070/soap/servlet/rpcrouter
  URN= urn:soap_test:exchange
Fault= SOAP-ENV:Server.BadTargetObjectURI, Unable to resolve target object: Exchange.

The reply message looks like this:
HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error
Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8

</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

In my CLASSPATH I have the directory of C:\soap_test along with other stuff. I am confused partly because if I add 
<Context path="/soap" docBase="C:/soap-2_2/webapps/soap" reloadable="true"/>
to the server.xml I get a more sensible output, but then the Apache SOAP Admin doesn't work anymore. 

Could anyone please help me out with this? Thanks in advance.
