Description

Driver used: WTP 1.0, Geronimo 1.0 server, Geronimo 01/09 plugins

After installing Geronimo server runtime and creating a Geronimo server using WTP (there's no other project or EAR on the server):

• New ->Web Services -> Web Service client
• Click Next
• On the Web Service selection page, paste the following in the URI field at the top of the page:

http://www.xmethods.net/sd/2001/CurrencyExchangeService.wsdl

• Click Next.
• In the Client Environment Configuration page, enter a name for a new Web project and EAR project. The Web service runtime should be "Apache Axis" and server should be "Apache Geronimo 1.0".
• Click Finish would result in:

Publishing failed
Could not publish to the server.
