Hi All:

             I have developed a set of web service ,deploy with axis2 and the system has been delivered successfully. now I find WSO2 is better than axis2. I want to replace the axis2 with WSO2. but I cannot make sure  it is a seamless migration. could you give me some suggestions?it's better to give me a check list.

 

thanks in advance

Should be a simple migration

Submitted by afkham_azeez on January 29, 2008 - 10:01.
Hi Neo, Nice to hear that. WSO2 WSAS uses the same Axis2 core. The deployment model, programming model and most other functionalities are the same. WSAS is simply a value addition layer which has integrated security, reliable messaging, tooling, advanced monitoring, cluster management, data services and many more things. You should be able to drop your services into the WSAS repository and everything should work fine. You may need to modify the main axis2.xml file so that it is compatible with your axis2.xml, if you have changed it. Please try deploying your services on WSAS and let us know if you come across any problems. It would be better if you could post your questions to the wsas user list (http://wso2.org/mail) . Feel free to contact us if you come across any issues. -- Regards Afkham Azeez azeez@wso2.com

replacement successfully

Hi Azeez:      Thank you for your reply.yes, it's a simple migration.I have replaced axis2 with wso2 successfully.so far I do not find any  difference besides access point( because I changed the context ). But I find your article "10 Minute Guide to Installing WSO2 WSAS on WebLogic" (http://wso2.org/library/880)is too old. :) and it's better to add a step at section "Defining the JDBC Datasource", following is my suggestion: after finish above all,in the Target the data source frame select a server as the target server for the data source.    If I find any problem I'll post here.thank you for I can use so great software!

Hi Azeez:                  As we discussed before,I replaced the axis2 with WSO2, it's OK,but now I face a big issue.                  In our project ,we deployed a axis2 AxisObserver and register it as a listener at axis2.xml, I only find a axis2.xml  at /home/weblogic/.wso2wsas/conf ,I change this one, but it does not work.                Could you please give me some suggestions?thank you !       neo

does not work

Submitted by neoqing on February 28, 2008 - 00:00.
Hi Azeez:       I have done follow your suggestion, but it still does not work.     I think I need to describe the scenario. actually ,I deploy  a observer ,who extends org.apache.axis2.engine.AxisObserver and listens all events of service(deploy,start,remove,stop), before replacement,the observer is OK when I stop/start service at the AXIS2 admin UI,but now the observer does not work  when I stop/start the service at WSO2 admin UI. that means WSO2 admin UI does not trigger the observer or it uses another mechanism?  what shall I do if I need the same functions. thanks.     neo
