As the number of services and resources grow in an SOA deployment, the task of locating which service resides where is going to become tedious. Wrong or outdated endpoint configurations can lead to application faults, service outages and business revenue losses. WS-Discovery is a standard protocol for publishing and discovering service endpoints in a complex SOA. Using WS-Discovery, systems can automatically discover the services and endpoints they are interested in without any human intervention. In this article, Hiranya Jayathilaka provides a brief introduction to WS-Discovery and how this standard is supported by WSO2 Carbon based products such as WSO2 AS, WSO2 DSS, WSO2 GReg and WSO2 ESB.

It's exactly the same error as in http://wso2.org/forum/thread/21201
Is there a quick fix?

Hello,
i need a little guidance concerning the use of the management api. looking at the source code gives me the information, that the management api for managing webapps is available at:
https://localhost:9443/services/WebappAdmin
how can i use this api from an external program, i.e. my own custom java code? when trying to access the wsdl, tomcat gives me a:
"HTTP Status 403 - Access to service metadata for service: WebappAdmin has been forbidden"
i try to access the wsdl at:

Hi
I am Trying to deploy wso2as-4.1.2.zip on JBoss 5.1, with the help of http://docs.wso2.org/display/AS/Deploying+on+JBoss+Application+Server.
While starting the JBoss server, it pointed out that few classes were missing, hence copied those jars into wso2as.war/WEB-INF/lib and proceeded.
Now I am facing below error. I made sure that none of the servers are running on ports 8443,8080,10389.
However, while starting the server https://localhost:8443/wso2as/carbon, I am facing error "HTTP Status 404 - ProxyServlet: /wso2as/carbon. Yes I did start the server as./run.bat - b [ip]
Any help is much appreciated.
