Problem

Integrate Spring with JAX-WS, according to this link: http://jax-ws-commons.java.net/spring/ . When start the web application, get this exception :

org.springframework.beans.factory.parsing.BeanDefinitionParsingException: 
Configuration problem: Unable to locate Spring NamespaceHandler 
for XML schema namespace [http://jax-ws.dev.java.net/spring/servlet]

Here’s the Spring + JAX-WS configuration file.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
       xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

    <wss:binding url="/hello">
        <wss:service>
            <ws:service bean="#helloWs"/>
        </wss:service>
    </wss:binding>
 
    <!-- Web service methods -->
    <bean id="helloWs" class="com.mkyong.ws.HelloWorldWS">
    </bean>
 
</beans>

Solution

The link : http://jax-ws-commons.java.net/spring/is lacking of information, you need jaxws-spring.jar to integrate Spring with JAX-WS.

  1. Get it from java.net Maven repository directly.
  2. For Maven, declare jaxws-spring in pom.xml, like this
<project ...>
 
  <repositories>
    <repository>
      <id>java.net</id>
      <url>http://download.java.net/maven/2</url>
    </repository>
  </repositories>
 
  <dependencies>
 
 	<!-- Exclude some unnecessary libraries --> 
	<dependency>
		<groupId>org.jvnet.jax-ws-commons.spring</groupId>
		<artifactId>jaxws-spring</artifactId>
		<version>1.8</version>
		<exclusions>
			<exclusion>
           		<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
      			<artifactId>spring-core</artifactId>
        	</exclusion>
        	<exclusion>
           		<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
      			<artifactId>spring-context</artifactId>
        	</exclusion>
        	<exclusion>
           		<groupId>com.sun.xml.stream.buffer</groupId>

        	<exclusion>
           		<groupId>org.jvnet.staxex</groupId>
      			<artifactId>stax-ex</artifactId>
        	</exclusion>
		</exclusions>
	</dependency>
 
  </dependencies>
  <build>
    <finalName>web services</finalName>

       <plugin>

               <target>1.6</target>
           </configuration>
       </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>
