Hi,

I am trying to run the folloeing example code

and i am getting the following error:

Looks like you have downloaded the source for RPC and not the jar archive.

[preethi Ayyappan]

Thanks, I didnt find any jar files there. The following are the files i found in the package

1. apache-xmlrpc-current-bin.tar.bz2
2. apache-xmlrpc-current-bin.tar.bz2.asc
3. apache-xmlrpc-current-bin.tar.gz
4. apache-xmlrpc-current-bin.tar.gz.asc
5. apache-xmlrpc-current-bin.zip
6. apache-xmlrpc-current-bin.zip.asc
7. apache-xmlrpc-current-src.tar.bz2
8. apache-xmlrpc-current-src.tar.bz2.asc
9. apache-xmlrpc-current-src.tar.gz
10. apache-xmlrpc-current-src.tar.gz.asc
11. apache-xmlrpc-current-src.zip
12. apache-xmlrpc-current-src.zip.asc
13. binaries/
14. sources/

[Sridhar Santhanakrishnan]

apache-xmlrpc-current-bin.zip should be the one you need.

[preethi Ayyappan]

Actually i am working in linux machine. Thats why I have chosen tar.gz file. Is it wrong?

[preethi Ayyappan]

I have the following jar files in the path where the XMLRPCTestClient.java,

1.commons-logging-1.1.jar
2.ws-commons-util-1.0.2.jar
3.xmlrpc-client-3.1.3.jar
4.xmlrpc-common-3.1.3.jar
5.xmlrpc-server-3.1.3.jar.

These files are found in the folder apache-xmlrpc-current-bin

and tried to run the program using the command

javac -cp commons-logging-1.1.jar:.:ws-commons-util-1.0.2.jar:.:xmlrpc-client-3.1.3.jar:.:xmlrpc-common-3.1.3.jar:.:xmlrpc-server-3.1.3.jar XMLRPCTestClient.java

But still i am finding the same error.

[preethi Ayyappan]

I have included the jar files

1.commons-logging-1.1.jar
2.ws-commons-util-1.0.2.jar
3.xmlrpc-client-3.1.3.jar
4.xmlrpc-common-3.1.3.jar
5.xmlrpc-server-3.1.3.jar.

inside the eclipse and can able to solve some issues in the code.But still there are two errors.

In the line

XmlRpc.setDriver( "org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser" );

// Specifiy the server
XmlRpcClient client = new XmlRpcClient(SECVPN_HOST_ADDRESS );

The error appears is :

1.XmlRpc cannot be resolved
2.The constructor XmlRpcClient(String) is undefined

Please assist me to get an solution

Thanks
