Connection refused

[Rosén Håkan <ha...@kvadrat.se>]

Hi,
I have deployed a axis-service in Tomcat and written a small java-client
that connects and calls methods in the service.
This works fine when I run the client on my local machine, but when I try to
run it from another machine the connection is refused,
have I missed something here ?

this is what I when running from a different machine
Exception in thread "main" AxisFault
 faultCode: {http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/}Server.userException
 faultSubcode:
 faultString: java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect
 faultActor:
 faultNode:
 faultDetail:
        {http://xml.apache.org/axis/}stackTrace: java.net.ConnectException:
Connection refused: connect
        at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.socketConnect(Native Method)
.....


regards 
/Håkan

Hi Håkan!

Have you created the stub using WSDL2Java?
Then maybe the problem is that in the WSDL-file there's something like:

    <service name="XXX">
       <port name="YYY" binding="ZZZ">
          <soap:address 
location="http://localhost:8080/axis/services/HakansService" />
       </port>
    </service>

By letting WSDL2Java create the stubs automatically, then of course the 
location in soap:address is used by default.
So if you call the service from another machine than the where Axis is 
running on, you must of course fail.

Remedy:
Explicitly set the location before service-invocation with something 
like the following:

java.net.URL portAddress;
portAddress = new java.net.URL(
    "http://serverAxisRunsOn:8080/axis/services/HakansService" );
XXXLocator loc = new XXXLocator();
YYY myService = loc.getYYY(portAddress);


Did this help?

cheers,
Christoph
