Java EE (Java Enterprise Edition) General Discussion

I know this is a problem that could have a thousand causes, somewhere deep in a conf file.

I have a Netbeans 6.7 manager project. I added some a web service class, added an operation to test. The project deploys to glassfish no problem. However if I try and go to the test via Netbeans (right click a web service and pick "Test Web Service") I get an error "Warning: unable to open web service tester page: http://localhost:8080/Manager/WSFooService?tester"

Clearly browsing to that URL doesn't work. It seems like the project is not even generating the WSDL for the web service so I can't make any clients to test it.

I am not sure which conf files to post, so here is a couple:

web.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app metadata-complete="true" version="2.5" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd">
    <session-config>
        <session-timeout>
            30
        </session-timeout>
    </session-config>
    <welcome-file-list>
        <welcome-file>index.jsp</welcome-file>
        </welcome-file-list>

    </web-app>

sub-web.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE sun-web-app PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Application Server 9.0 Servlet 2.5//EN" "http://www.sun.com/software/appserver/dtds/sun-web-app_2_5-0.dtd">
<sun-web-app error-url="">
  <context-root>/MegaManager</context-root>
  <class-loader delegate="true"/>
  <jsp-config>
    <property name="keepgenerated" value="true">
      <description>Keep a copy of the generated servlet class' java code.</description>
    </property>
  </jsp-config>
</sun-web-app>

Netbeans also shows a directory in the tree

src
  - conf
    - xml-resources
     - web-service-references
      - EMPTY

I think I need to modify my build.xml to override one of the build tasks so it generates the proper wsdl and Service end points (like wsgen or whatever I am suppose to use). I guess Netbeans fails to do this automatically.


Thanks for any help you can provide.
