Answer 1

If you look at the last line of the stack trace above, you'll see "Truncated. see log file for complete stacktrace." The log files under your Weblogic installation directory will give you more detailed information, and may point you in the right direction.

Answer 2

Hi Stephen,

for me there is no helpful information in it.

Answer 4

I get the same problem on WebLogic:

Unable to find namespace for prefix 'tns'. This is used in element [part:null]

The same war file deploys ok on Glassfish.

Answer 5

You are not really providing enough details (e.g. do you bundle jax-ws or any other jar in the war that could conflict with WebLogic's one?) to provide a precise answer but maybe have a look at this answer where I describe how to use a custom version of jax-ws instead of the version bundled with WebLogic.
