Former Member

Our scenario is RFC <--> SOAP. I'm using Axis adapter at receiver side. Receriver side communication channel is throwing the error as follows:

com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException: javax.ejb.EJBException: nested exception is: java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/axis/description/OperationDesc : cannot initialize class because prior initialization attempt failed

All basis components were installed including the optional ones. Please give a solution for the same.

Hello Selvaraj,

I faced the same error on my Axis communication channel. As it indicates a missing class the solution for me was to add the WSDL4J.jar file (available under http://sourceforge.net/projects/wsdl4j/?source=dlp) to the com.sap.aii.af.axisproviderlib.sda.

Cheers,

Markus

This could be service pack update issue. Though yours is receiver side, still you might want to check this thread at  http://scn.sap.com/thread/3160126
