Deployment on WebSphere 6.1 Fails - Please help!

[oakridge ()]

So I've followed the documentation here:

http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CXF20DOC/Application+Server+Specific+Configuration+Guide#ApplicationServerSpecificConfigurationGuide-Websphere

But I continue to get the following error:

"java.lang.TypeNotPresentException: Type javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlSeeAlso not present"

I've tried both approaches (add customer class loader with wsdl4j and with a series of jars) outlined in the above link both with and without the Web Service Feature Pack.  Has anyone had luck with deploying on WS 6.1 or am I missing something?  I'm happy to provide more details if more are needed.

Thanks!

So I updated to 6.1.0.27 and updated to JAXB 2.1 which got rid of the XmlSeeAlso error, but am still running into problems.  I have attempted the fixes in the link as I previously mentioned.  I currently have a share lib mapped to my app server's classloader that contains:

geronimo-jaxws_2.1_spec-1.0.jar
geronimo-ws-metadata_2.0_spec-1.1.2.jar
jaxp-ri-1.4.2.jar
jsr173_api-1.0.jar
saaj-impl-1.3.2.jar
wsdl4j-1.6.2.jar

I have tried using just wsdl4j, but that didn't work.  With the above classes attached to the classloader, I am seeing the following stack which doesn't make sense to me.

We got it working with some differences described in this thread: http://www.nabble.com/Re%3A-CXF-and-WAS-6.1%28.0.19%29-p26119183.html

We did not include the metadata jar in the shared lib - this jar is only in web-inf/lib.

I've managed to get this working by including the needed JAXWS Geronimo JARs and not including the web services feature pack or a custom class loader.  I don't have all the CXF required JARs due to internal conflicts, but in the end no special configuration was needed outside adding the Geronimo JARs which enabled the javax.jws.* stuff.

Thanks all!

Cool.  What did your web-inf/lib end up including?

There's quite a bit in my WEB-INF/lib, but for the most part I have the following JARs from the list CXF claims to need:

XmlSchema-1.4.5.jar
cxf-2.2.3.jar (the latest GA all JAR)
wsdl4j-1.6.2.jar
commons-logging-1.0.4.jar
geronimo-ws-metadata_2.0_spec-1.1.2.jar (JSR 181; not needed in Tomcat)
commons-logging-1.1.1.jar

I have some old JARs from Axis, so there are the ones I was able to uniquely identify as newly added.  I imagine that JAXB was required as well since that is my default binding mechanism.  Also, I am not using Spring.  Finally, I did not install the Web Services Feature Pack.  I hope that helps!  

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

Thanks again!
