I'm trying to call code to use a web service via Apache/axis
(axis-1_2RC3), the code runs perfectly as a jar file locally but when
it is loaded into Oracle and run using pl/sql it fails with
ExceptionInInitializerError.

I get a traceback of

Failure trying to get the Call object; nested exception
is:
    java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError - status -  failed 2
AxisFault
faultCode: {http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/}Server.generalException

       .. and more of my code calls

I've loaded the following into oracle

axis-ant.jar        commons-logging.jar
axis.jar        jaxrpc.jar         saaj.jar
commons-discovery.jar    log4j-1.2.8.jar      wsdl4j.jar

and the jar files generated from the wsdl definition.

Have I missed out anything obvious? Is there a more appropriate NG for this query?

TIA
