I just ran into the same issue and added these dependencies to my maven pom
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.axis2</groupId>
<artifactId>axis2-transport-http</artifactId>
<version>1.6.2</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.axis2</groupId>
<artifactId>axis2-transport-local</artifactId>
<version>1.6.2</version>
</dependency>
Hope this helps.
