whats is happening here? what about log4j

Answer 1

Don't worry about the Log4j stuff for the moment. That's simply telling you that the Log4j framework can't find its configuration. It'll run ok without it.

The important line is

Caused by: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.apache.ws.commons.schema.XmlSchema.getTypeByName(Ljava/lang/String;)Lorg/apache/ws/commons/schema/XmlSchemaType;

which says to me that you have some library mismatch. You have some library in your classpath that doesn't match Axis' requirements (most probably an old version of the library). Check Axis' dependencies versus what you're running with (your JVM version and the libraries on your classpath).
