No Serializer found

[SV Subrahmanyam]

Hi
I am using Tomcat4.1,jdk1.4, Win2k,Axis1.1
I am getting the following error when the service is being accessed

The error occurs when the Input Object has the declarations of the HttpRequest /httpSession used as type XSD:ANY

Axis needs to know, how to de-/serialize Objects into a xml-format. Many types are supportet by a build-in serializer (look at the package org.apache.axis.encoding.ser or the userguide.

Objects, with no build-in serializer (eg HttpRequest) needs a custum serializer. At the Type-Mapping section in your wsdd-file, you have to register them. To learn how to do this, pleas visit the link above.

But in my opinion, you are not on the right way, if you transfer a HttpRequest or HttpResponse via a Web-Service.

Thats right.
Subramanyam,
So tell us what you made to use httprequest/response as the payload in SOAP message ?? Why not a java complex types or javabean?

Thanks for the reply but how do we deal with sessions in webservice
Can u please let me know some place where i can find an example implementation

Regards

Session management with WebServices article.

Oops, guess you have to register to get past the first page.

The AXIS web page, talking about the latest SOAP support says "Support for session-oriented services, via HTTP cookies or transport-independent SOAP headers".
