CXF directory must be set in global preferences SOAP UI

Question

I'm using IntelliJ on Mac OS to create the stub from SOAP UI. After entering the WSDL url, output directory as "/Users/kaushik/Desktop" and package, when I try to generate the stub, it displays an error in a dialog box "CXF directory must be set in global preferences". I've tested the requests and it's working.

Answer 1

I was able to resolve it after I put the stubs in the client in the same package(com.abc.controller) as the one where I had my service class in the web service.

Hope this will be helpful for all facing the same error.

Answer 2

On the code generation screen (Apache CXF Stub) you need to specify CXF binaries location - click "Tools" (on the bottom right) and then in "Global Properties" set path to CXF (to the \bin folder).
