MalformedObjectNameException with Webservice

Question

I am using jaxws-rt 2.2.8, jaxb-api 2.2.7, and jaxws-api 2.2.9 for my webservice framework. It is going to be deployed on Websphere 8.5.1 JDK 7. This project with the older versions of the dependencies works on Websphere 6 JDK 5.

The project contains both a webservice provider and client. The client works but the provider doesn't. When I start up my server, I see the following stack trace:

Answer 1

You should set classloader policy to PARENT_LAST for your application. Because WebSphere Application Server has own version of libraries.
