I’m attempting to implement the bottom-up tutorial for the XFire web services, on Eclipse 3.2, MyEclipse 5.0.x GA, WebLogic 9.2. When my client attempts to access the web service, i get the following error:

Exception in thread “main” org.codehaus.xfire.XFireRuntimeException: Could not invoke service.. Nested exception is org.codehaus.xfire.fault.XFireFault: Unexpected character ‘”‘ (code 34) in DOCTYPE declaration; expected a space between public and system identifiers
at [row,col {unknown-source}]: [1,55]
org.codehaus.xfire.fault.XFireFault: Unexpected character ‘”‘ (code 34) in DOCTYPE declaration; expected a space between public and system identifiers

Any ideas anyone?

Thanks,

Don

I had the same same problem. Looking at the WEB XML according to the XFIRE web site it should look like this
<servlet>
<servlet-name>XFireServlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>
org.codehaus.xfire.transport.http.XFireConfigurableServlet
</servlet-class>
</servlet>

<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>XFireServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/servlet/XFireServlet/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<!– begin not in tutorial–>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>XFireServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/services/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<!– not in tutorial–>

I add that to my xml and it worked
The URL also change to

http://localhost:8080/HelloWorld/services/HelloWorldService?wsdl

I also believe that you may have to wait unit tomcat has completed it startup then
used the web service browse.

This code was missing my mistake previous post
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>XFireServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/servlet/XFireServlet/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
