Problem
Deploying a JAX-WS web service on Tomcat, hits following error message :
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:
com.sun.xml.ws.transport.http.servlet.WSServletContextListener
Solution
The JAX-WS dependency library “jaxws-rt.jar” is missing.
- Go here http://jax-ws.java.net/.
- Download JAX-WS RI distribution.
- Unzip it and copy “jaxws-rt.jar” to Tomcat library folder “{$TOMCAT}/lib“.
- Restart Tomcat.

Can someone please help on fix this issue ?
After Java 1.4, you might want to copy the XML parser dependencies to dedicated Tomcat/endorsed folder. More info: https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.5-doc/class-loader-howto.html#:~:text=your%20web%20application-,XML%20Parsers%20and%20Java,-Starting%20with%20Java
