webServiceTemplate injection failed, java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/xml/soap/SOAPException

[former_member706422]

Hi Experts,

I am trying to use webServiceTemplate for making soap based web service call but its injection is getting failed. Eventually, it is throwing below error -

Constructor threw exception; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.BeanInstantiationException: Failed to instantiate [org.springframework.ws.soap.saaj.SaajSoapMessageFactory]: Unresolvable class definition; nested exception is java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/xml/soap/SOAPException.

After doing some analysis I found it is causing in every java version newer than Java 9 but the proposed solution is not working. Can anyone tell me what to do to resolve this issue?

Commerce/Hybris version: 2005

Java version:11

Thanks in Advance.

Have you added corresponding SOAP libs to the project after upgrading to the Java 11? Java EE SOAP libs were removed in J11.

See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/54573998/java-11-package-javax-xml-soap-does-not-exist

In our project we added at least these libs which added SOAP support
