org.apache.cxf.BusException: No DestinationFactory was found for the namespace http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/http/

Question

In a wsdl-file I have the following line:

When I deploy the webapplication (on JBOSS 5.1.0) and try to access the wsdl I get the following exception:

Anyone knows how this issue can be resolved?

Answer 1

I had the same problem. And none of the google stuff was making sense. I found out in my case that I was missing the following in the spring context file:

<import resource="classpath:META-INF/cxf/cxf.xml" />
<import resource="classpath:META-INF/cxf/cxf-extension-soap.xml" />
<import resource="classpath:META-INF/cxf/cxf-servlet.xml" />

If you're running cxf 3.x but have cxf 2.x jars in your classpath, this can happen. Find the version of your jars like this:

for fn in cxf*.jar; do echo $fn; unzip -p $fn *pom.xml | grep "<version>" | head -1; done;
