The dropins folder can be tricky. Sometimes it just wont work, no matter what you try. Ideally, you should look for an update site that contains the plugin you need. Have you checked if Axis isnt a part of the Indigo Update site?

If you fail to find an update site, you can copy the file to the plugins folder.

Update: If you still cannot find the plugin, it probably lacks some dependencies. Check the state of the plugin, see Dude, where's my bundle? for more info on states of plugins.

The webpage doesn't mention the "Plugin Registry" view, where you can view a plugin and its states from within Eclipse. You can even diagnose a plugin to see why it doesn't start.

As for installing Axis2, it is on the Eclipse update site:

http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo

Search for "Axis2". Not sure if that contains exactly the feature you are after though, but worth a test.
