Error in Web Service created by Eclipse

Question

I'm getting this error when testing my web service created by exlipse using Axis 1.4

- <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"     xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
- <soapenv:Body>
- <soapenv:Fault>
<faultcode>soapenv:Server.userException</faultcode> 
<faultstring>java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException</faultstring> 
- <detail>
 <ns1:hostname xmlns:ns1="http://xml.apache.org/axis/">ahernandez-PC</ns1:hostname> 
 </detail>
 </soapenv:Fault>
 </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

The file in which the error is present (I believe so atleast) is this one:

Answer 1

It may be the exception cause due to missing configurations in web.xml file. At first, WSDL searches for the config in web.xml and the .wsdl file you generated as SOAP service. if it mismatches InvocationTargetException might be thrown.

Answer 2

Looks pretty much like you have a WSDL file that allows you to know the operations but the actual server where you should have your services is down. Check that the services are available
