While trying to deploy a web service in Tomcat (1.5) with Axis 1.4, you may have encountered the above error message. If you have faced with that, following information will help you in fixing it.
If you are at servier side, this error may be logged in Tomcat log file as follows.
- No compiler found in your classpath! (you may need to add 'tools.jar')
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: sun.tools.javac.Main
at org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader.loadClass(WebappClassLoader.java:1355)
....
On client side, you'll receive this error as follows.
Exception in thread "main" AxisFault
faultCode: {http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/}Server.userException
faultSubcode:
faultString: java.lang.RuntimeException: No compiler found in your classpath! (you may need to add 'tools.jar')
faultActor:
faultNode:
faultDetail:
{http://xml.apache.org/axis/}hostname:myhost
Solution
Copy %JAVA_HOME%\lib\tools.jar file into %CATALINA_HOME%\common\lib folder and restart tomcat.Why %JAVA_HOME%\lib\tools.jar is not identified?
If you check happyaxis.jsp page (http://127.0.0.1:8080/axis/happyaxis.jsp); under "Examining System Properties" you'll see that property java.home is set to the JRE path, not the JDK path in your machine. (even though %JAVA_HOME% points to JDK installation). In my machine it looked as follows.- java.vm.version=1.6.0_03-b05
- java.home=C:\Java\jre1.6.0_03

Good tip, fixed my issue! Thanks for posting.
ReplyDeleteFor Tomcat 6.0 and later, you can actually just add the tools.jar to the TOMCAT_HOME/lib folder. The common/lib and server/lib folders went out after Tomcat 5.5.
Thanks was helpful
