Error on using camel cxf "No binding factory... http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/ registered" (but works in eclipse)

Question

In my camel app i am creating cxf endpoints in java dsl:

CxfEndpoint cxf = new CxfEndpoint(rtdmUrl, new CxfComponent(this.getContext()));
cxf.setServiceClass(EventPortType.class);
process.process(rtdmSetNameFactory.get(eventName)).to(cxf).process(handleRtdmAnswer);

If try to run this route i get:

Exception in thread "main" org.apache.camel.FailedToCreateProducerException: Failed to create Producer for endpoint: End
point[http://localhost:8088/mockEventSoapBinding]. Reason: org.apache.cxf.service.factory.ServiceConstructionException:
Could not resolve a binding for null
...
Caused by: org.apache.cxf.BusException: No binding factory for namespace http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/ registered.

But if i run main[] from within eclipse (called in a @Test with same configuration) it is working fine!?

My jar is built with maven-assembly-plugin (executable jar with all dependencies) I hope/think this is only a configuration problem or is related to how i set up the cxf endpoint.

Additional info for bounty hunters I created a minimal example that reproduces the error: https://bitbucket.org/moritz_loeser/cxftests/src

It contains a test that calls main() this test is working if you change the path in the route (it creates a exchange per file, but file content is ignored). I used soapUi (project file within above repository) to mock the web service. On my machine the test works fine but running mvn package and then java -jar cxfTests-1.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar from target folder fails. i just tried: mvn test is also working

My main method look like this:

public static void main(final String... args) throws Exception { 
    Injector i; 
    if (args.length < 1 || Strings.isNullOrEmpty(args[0])) { 
        i = Guice.createInjector(new CepModule()); 
    } else { 
        i = Guice.createInjector(new CepModule(args[0])); 
    } 
    OurMain main = i.getInstance(OurMain.class); 
    // eliminates logging to java.util.logger 
    SLF4JBridgeHandler.removeHandlersForRootLogger(); 
    // redirects all java.util.logger stuff to slf4j 
    SLF4JBridgeHandler.install(); 
    //i.getInstance(RouteControl.class).startAll(); 
    main.enableHangupSupport(); 
    main.run(); 
} 

As stated before the test that works in eclipse just runs this method with same configuration file as the test that throws this error (run from console java -jar thejat.jar).

Answer 1

I had similar error while migrating cxf from 2.3.1 to 2.6.6. In my case like in post before:

It seems that assembly-plugin messes up configuration files (overriding in not specific order). So the solution is don't use it! But use shade plugin like here: How to package an Apache CXF application into a monolithic JAR with the Maven "shade" plugin

but I should tried add only :

<transformer implementation="org.apache.maven.plugins.shade.resource.AppendingTransformer"> <resource>META-INF/cxf/bus-extensions.txt</resource> </transformer>

(answer in that post too), not all transformenrs, and I don't need buildtools

Answer 2

i found an answer on a not so clean path but the final hint came from here: http://cxf.547215.n5.nabble.com/Error-on-using-camel-cxf-quot-No-binding-factory-http-schemas-xmlsoap-org-soap-registered-but-works--td5745738.html

The only problem i have with it: i don't understand how to properly choose files and transformers. Do i need all of them? Which file is producing my specific error?
