Hi all,

I need some help w.r.t web services in java. I have a wsdl file and i
need to send and receive calls to this wsdl url or file through java
program. This url needs authentication (user name and pwd). So for
this, i have used the wsdl2java tool(by downloading xerces,axis and
installing tomcat) to convert the wsdl into java classes and i wrote a
small client program to call this java classes. I am having a problem
now. The client program compiles succesfully but the when i run it, it
gives a "missing authentication header" exception. Actually from the
wsdl file i have, there is a class called AuthenticationHeader.java
also generated. I called setUsername and setPassword methods available
on this class to set the username and password for the wsdl url but
this does not help. I don't understand if this is the right way to do
it. The complete exception details are:



Exception in thread "main" AxisFault
faultCode: {http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/}Client
faultSubcode:
faultString: Missing authentication header.
faultActor:
faultNode:
faultDetail:
{http://xml.apache.org/axis/}stackTrace:Missing authentication
header.
