Web Service deployed on JBOSS is not accessible

Hello,

I am using JBOSS 4.2.2 GA, EJB3 Stateless session Bean exposed as a web service.

The service is deployed on JBoss and successfully running on the same machine (where JBOSS is installed). However when I try to access the service (through Java client) from a network connected different machine, the service throws Exception as follows :
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/xerces/xs/XSModel
at org.jboss.ws.metadata.builder.jaxrpc.JAXRPCClientMetaDataBuilder.buildMetaData(JAXRPCClientMetaDataBuilder.java:111)
at org.jboss.ws.metadata.builder.jaxrpc.JAXRPCClientMetaDataBuilder.buildMetaData(JAXRPCClientMetaDataBuilder.java:86)
at org.jboss.ws.core.jaxrpc.client.ServiceImpl.<init>(ServiceImpl.java:111)

at org.jboss.ws.core.jaxrpc.client.ServiceFactoryImpl.createService(ServiceFactoryImpl.java:128
at com.client.Client.main(Client.java:20)

Pl. explain.

Please read the readme.html file, first bullet under Configuration Issues > JBossAS 4.2.0.GA. Or see the 4.2 FAQ..

Hi,

Even after starting the JBOSS Server with -b 0.0.0.0 option, I am unable to access the deployed web service from a remotely connected machine.

Sorry, should have mentioned this point earlier itself.

Is there something else that I need to configure, to run the service remotely ?

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/xerces/xs/XSModel

This exception is being thrown on the client side. Do you have all the necessary jar files in the client (com.client.Client) classpath?

I think I have all the jars in place.
I say so since, the webservice can be accessed locally (the same machine that hosts JBOSS) but is not accessible from a remotely connected machine.

I had not added the xercesimpl.jar file to the remote client machine!

My mistake..

thanks for your inputs.
