Java – unable to load ‘classpath resource [org / springframework / WS / client / core / webservicetemplate. Properties]

I wrote some code where I was using another web service and sending a request to the web service using the web service template

ApplicationContxt：

<bean id="messageFactory" class="org.springframework.ws.soap.saaj.saajSoapMessageFactory">
    <property name="soapVersion">
        <util:constant static-field="org.springframework.ws.soap.soapVersion.soAP_12" />
    </property>
</bean>

 <bean id="manageContactService" class="com.canaldigital.tsi.managecontacts.serviceprovider.ManageContactService">
    <property name="manageContactsWstemplate" ref="manageContactsWstemplate" />
</bean>

    <bean name="manageContactsWstemplate" class="org.springframework.ws.client.core.webservicetemplate">
    <constructor-arg ref="messageFactory" />

     <property name="defaultUri" value="http://tsi-vip-abc.com:7111/abc_v2/ProxyService?WSDL" /> 

    <property name="marshaller" ref="manageContactMarshaller" />
    <property name="unmarshaller" ref="manageContactUnmarshaller" />

</bean>

Services:

public class ManageContactService extends WebServiceGatewaySupport  {

        private webservicetemplate manageContactsWstemplate;        
        public webservicetemplate getManageContactsWstemplate() {
    return manageContactsWstemplate;
}
public void setManageContactsWstemplate(webservicetemplate manageContactsWstemplate) {
    this.manageContactsWstemplate = manageContactsWstemplate;
}
    public void sendNPSReminder(String phoneNum,String customerNum,String countryCode ) {


            SendNPSReminderRequestType sendNPSReminderRequest = new SendNPSReminderRequestType();
            Contact contact = new Contact();            
            sendNPSReminderRequest.setCountryCode(CountryCodeCV.NO);
            contact.setPhone(new BigInteger(phoneNum));             
            sendNPSReminderRequest.setContact(contact);
            sendNPSReminderRequest.setCustomerNumber(customerNum);

            try{

                JAXBElement<SendNPSReminderResponseType> response = (JAXBElement<SendNPSReminderResponseType>) manageContactsWstemplate.marshalSendAndReceive(sendNPSReminderRequest);
            }catch (Exception e) {

                e.printStackTrace();
            }

    }

    }

Solution

This resource is part of a spring WS core dependency, so it must be out of the box, but I guess you're using WLS 11 (when you tag it) Therefore, instead of using spring dependencies owned by spring, you may package spring into Weblogic

Try using WEB-INF / Weblogic XML descriptors avoid this, as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<weblogic-web-app xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/weblogic/weblogic-web-app">

    <container-descriptor>
        <prefer-application-packages>
            <package-name>org.springframework.*</package-name>
        </prefer-application-packages>

        <prefer-application-resources>
            <resource-name>org.springframework.*</resource-name>
        </prefer-application-resources>
    </container-descriptor>

</weblogic-web-app>

With this configuration, you tell WLS to use your packages and resources for org springframework.*.

Hope to help you!
