robert lazarski commented on AXIS2-5909:
----------------------------------------

[~veithen] any thoughts on the happyaxis.jsp tweak as described? I could just commit \
the change but I wanted to give an opportunity to discuss first. Plus Jira is helpful \
for communication.  

For example, perhaps the default should be httpclient4 with null args to the method  \
createConfigurationContextFromFileSystem() .  

Also I would like to discuss the larger issue of removing httpclient3 support from \
axis2, would the dev list be a better place?  

Thanks,  

Robert

> Key: AXIS2-5909
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-5909
> Project: Axis2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.7.7
> Reporter: robert lazarski
> Priority: Major
> 
> Axis2 1.7.x introduced the ability to use the httpclient4 libs instead of the \
> unsupported httpclient3 libs via changes to WEB-INF/conf/axis2.xml , however those \
> changes are not picked up in the following code in happyaxis.jsp:   
> ConfigurationContext configctx = 
> ConfigurationContextFactory.createConfigurationContextFromF
> ileSystem(null, null);
> 
> If there are no httpclient3 libs in the WAR because they were purposely removed and \
> httpclient4 was configured as a replacement, the happyaxis.jsp validate link will \
>                 still attempt to load those httpclient3 classes. The result is:  
> java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/commons/httpclient
> /HttpConnectionManager
> The distributed axis2.war/WEB-INF/web.xml shows commented out args on AxisServlet \
> for the axis repo, but those didn't appear to help the happyaxis.jsp loading of the \
> validate link with httpclient4 configured.   This code tweak in happyaxis.jsp does \
> seem to work. Any reason this code would not be a good idea by default? And imho \
> the axis2 team should also consider removing httpclient3 support entirely for \
> security reasons.   ConfigurationContext configctx = 
> ConfigurationContextFactory.createConfigurationContextFromF
> ileSystem("/WEB-INF/conf", "axis2.xml");
>
