Werservice task error: Parse XML java.lang.ClassCastException

[krull80]

Hello All,

I'm having a problem while deploying a diagram that is using a webservice task. While deploying the diagram:

I have deployed it in Tomcat 7.0.33 with java 1.6 and cxf 2.4.1 and 2.7.7 and java 1.7 with cxf 2.7.7 and 2.4.1 both with the same error.
I also tried in weblogic with similar result ( but it took me more time for solving weblogic class loading issues 😞 ).


The wsdl content is:

I hope you can help me with this issue as I have been stuck for the last couple of days and I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

Thanks in advance

Just in case someone needs it, for Weblogic I solved some conflicts with the existing cxf by using <prefer-application-packages> in weblogic-application.xml.

In addition there could be some problems with cxf and STAX and security you could avoid by adding:

<code>
<bean class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.MethodInvokingFactoryBean">
  <property name="targetObject">
   <bean class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.MethodInvokingFactoryBean">
    <property name="targetClass" value="java.lang.System" />
    <property name="targetMethod" value="getProperties" />
   </bean>
  </property>
  <property name="targetMethod" value="putAll" />
  <property name="arguments">
   <utilroperties>
    <prop key="org.apache.cxf.stax.allowInsecureParser">true</prop>
   </utilroperties>
  </property>
</bean>
</code>

Hi all,

I've got the same problem about the exception ClassCastException parsing my WSDL. The problem is due to the CxfWSDLImporter that supports only structure as message content. In your XSD you've declared the element SendPublicationRequest as string that is not a structure.

I've just created the associated JIRA issue: https://activiti.atlassian.net/browse/ACT-3999

Regards,
Christophe

A patch is available into the pull request https://github.com/Activiti/Activiti/pull/575

Thanks, I've applied the patch.

Best regards,
