Description

A simple POJO annotated with @WebService and declared in web.xml as a servlet will produce the following NPE in server output on TomEE 7.0.1 and the endpoint will not handle requests. The same setup works on TomEE 1.7.2 however.

I created a really simple maven project that reproduces the problem:

• Download the zipped project from here
• Run mvn package and deploy the .war
• Start TomEE 7.0.1, notice the NPE in server log
• Accessing SEVER_URL/jaxws-bug/WebServiceService gives an error

The same .war deploys successfully on TomEE 1.7.2
