解决方法:

通过更改Tomcat( 我用的是Tomcat 5.0.28)的Java Classpath, 问题解决！

 

我遇到过类似的情况： http://www.cnblogs.com/zhengyun_ustc/archive/2006/03/11/174348.html#347629 我的解决办法是： 原先安装的是j2sdk-1_4_1_02-windows-i586 最开始安装的是j2sdk-1_4_1_02-windows-i586.exe，看页面的提示，就把tools.jar复制到tomcat目录下，还是不行。 最终安装了j2sdk-1_4_2_08-windows-i586-p.exe： 把原来的j2sdk卸载，安装了最新的j2sdk-1_4_2_08-windows-i586-p.exe。并没有设置什么AXIS_HOME、AXIS_LIB等系统变量，只要把这个版本的D:/j2sdk1.4.2_08/lib/Tools.jar复制到D:/Tomcat 5.0/common/lib下，重启动Tomcat，就可以浏览Axis了。 并且以前发布的web service，也可以正常浏览了。
