These other questions hint at a solution but I haven't been able to get this to work:
Could not resolve a binding for http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap/
ServiceConstructionException when creating a CXF web service client
How to package an Apache CXF application into a monolithic JAR with the Maven "shade" plugin
When I start my application by doing java -Xdebug -jar myapp.jar I'm getting a ServiceConstructionException: Could not resolve a binding for null when the app makes a SOAP call. The app and the SOAP call works just fine when I start the application in IntelliJ. Here is a minimal example reproducing the error: https://github.com/stianlagstad/mainclass-and-jxf-problems-demo
Steps to reproduce:
- gradle clean build && java -Xdebug -jar build/libs/mainclass-and-jxf-problems-demo.jar
- Go to http://localhost:4242/endpoint/ and see the error
Can anyone help me figure out which changes I have to do to make the SOAP call work?
Edit to provide more information:
If I edit build.gradle to not exclude META-INF (i.e. having configurations.compile.collect { it.isDirectory() ? it : zipTree(it) } instead of configurations.compile.collect { it.isDirectory() ? it : zipTree(it).matching{exclude{it.path.contains('META-INF')}} }) I get this error instead: Error: Could not find or load main class com.shadowjarcxfproblem.JettyLauncher (when starting the app as a jar). Starting the app in IntelliJ still works however, and the SOAP call works then as well.
