Problem running Apache axis

[igwe kalu kalu ogba]

Hello, I've installed Apache AXIS on my system but I am having one problem. My programs compile but each time I try to run them I get the following error:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/xml/rpc/Service

Any ideas on how to fix this?
Thanks.

hi,
after the installation you must copy the directory
YourAXIS-Home/webapps/axis
into (by example!!) C:\Programme\Tomcat5.0\webapps
(axis runs as wepapps!!) yue need an application server (T:-)Cat)?
if you are working with resin:
into C:\Programme\resin-3.0.12\webapps
On the box:
this is my batch file to start tomcat and axis:
rem begin of file setJava.bat
@echo off
@rem -----------------------------------------
@rem setJava.bat

@rem Sets up the Java environment
@rem by adding the correct java files for JDK Ver 1.4.2_04

@rem junit environment will be initialized

You need perhaps only the set AXISCLASSPATH's

Just have a look into axis documentation files. Firstly go through install.html
