Caused by : java.lang.NoSuch Method Error:javax.xml.ws.WebFault.MessageName()Ljava/lang/string;

Issue:

This error is seen when the JAX-WS libraries are missing.

Solution:

When deploying webservice project to the tomcat server, Tomcat do not implement the entire java EE sepcifications and it needs the JAX-WS libraries deployed to support the project.

add the jars in the endorsed directory.

By default the endorsed directory will be taken as $CATALINA_HOME/endorsed.

If you want to force use a different path, Use the following in the setenv.sh or the catalina.sh file.

-Djava.endorsed.dirs=$JAVA_ENDORSED_DIR;
