Yesterday I tried to create webservice by using axis 1.1 in tomcat6. But I was not able to. I thought that the reason could be older version of AXIS 1.1. I read in web that though axis 2 is the current version, there are number of projects which are using AXIS1.1. Therefore I downloaded the latest version of axis 1.1 from apache axis 1.1 site. that version is axis-bin-1_4. When I unzipped it I got axis-1_4 folder. Inside the folder I had
Inside the webapps folder I had axis folder. I copied that axis folder to d:\tomcat6\webapps folder. I found that drop in deployment worked correctly. My jsf 2 application also working in the same tomcat6. I got correct result as what I got yesterday with tomcat5 and jsf1.1. AXIS 1.1 is not obsolete.
