Axis2/Rampart Installation

How to install or upgrade Axis2 + rampart.mar

Note: this procedure is now done by the do_build.sh script. We are currently using a post 1.4 SNAPSHOT due to a security bug in the 1.4 release. So do not follow these instructions until a 1.5 release is available.

To Build

The OSCARS code uses the the WSSE functionality provided by the ramapart.mar to digitally sign and verify SOAP messages. So when you install axis2 you must include the rampart.mar.

You should then copy all the axis2 jar files into OSCARS/lib/axis2 in your OSCARS distribution /lib directory.  (Now done by the ant task axis2localcopy called by prepare.)
