I am developing java web services (JAX-WS) to insert data into mysql DB and retrieve it. This web service has two methods i.e. fetchFromDB and insertIntoDB. Services seems to be running fine when I test them using netbeans IDE.

Address: /CalculatorWSService
WSDL:    /CalculatorWSService?wsdl

but when I try to access it using AJAX’s xmlHttpRequest object by providing url http://localhost:8080/CalculatorApp/CalculatorWSService. It is not able to access it. I have developed C# web services and It has been so easy to access them with a url but java web services don’t seem to follow that.

My question is

What url to use to access the web service operations in AJAX? (Do I need to use ‘?wsdl’ in the url?
Is there a javascript ajax library to easily access JAX-WS web services?
Apache Axis web services are a better choice over JAX-WS?
Please help me, Thanks, Jay

    I was having the same problem of yours, couldn’t invoke a Jax-ws web service from Javascript, but i’ve found a way to do this.

    The Url to use can be your same (EndPointAddress) “http://localhost:8080/CalculatorApp/CalculatorWSService“

    but when you create the XMLHttpRequest object from javascript you have to:

    * Use the POST method to open the URL , i tried with GET but it didn’t work for me.
    * Set the SOAPAction Request Header to the one in your wsdl, even if its empty “”.
    * Be very careful with the request body to send, the soap Envelope must be correct.

    hope this can help you!.

    Bye.
