Question

created a very basic WS. i have LoggingHandler, Test, TestImpl, & TestPublisher. my publisher creates my endpoint below:

import javax.xml.ws.Endpoint;
public class TestPublisher {
public static void main(String[] args) {
LoggingHandler handle = new LoggingHandler();
Endpoint ep = Endpoint.publish( "http://localhost:8060/message/hello",
    new TestImpl() );
ep.getBindings().getHandlerChain().add( new LoggingHandler() );
System.out.print( handle.toString() );
}
}

my Test interface uses @WebService & @WebMethod and only does “String getHello( String str );”
my TestImpl implements Test and uses @WebService(endpointInterface=”my package location”) and only has a method “public String getHelloWorld( String str ){ return “Hello ” + str; }
my handler has handleMessage, handleFault, & close. i can put this code up too but i don’t think that would help.

when i head over to localhost:port/message/hello on the same (dev) RH6 pc, it works great! i get “Hello my name“. i even can get a wsdl file at localhost:port/message/hello?wsdl

when i try accessing from any other pc, linux or windows, i get a timeout or “cannot display the webpage” error. so i setup in tcp/ip monitor in eclipse to monitor and route traffic from port 8061 (new port) to my WS port [here][link3] without changing any code.

results: i still can’t access 8060 from any other pc except the one running the service (dev). so i point my browser to on the other pc’s to port 8061 (tcp/ip monitor) and it successfully returns my message! do i need to run a monitor to forward to my java webservice?

on my RH6 box, i am not running a firewall or a web server & i am on my work network. i can successfully start tomcat6 and get to 8080 from the other pc’s without using tcp/ip monitor.

Try Endpoint.publish with the ip address of your machine,

ex: Endpoint.publish(“http://192.168.0.1:8060/message/hello”)
