WSWS3142E: Error: could not find web services engine
 Technote (troubleshooting)
 
Problem(Abstract)
In IBM® WebSphere® Application Server V5, the following error is seen in the SystemOut.log during the startup of an application server:

WSWS3142E: Error: Could not find Web services engine
 
Cause
The error may occur if you are not using the IBM XML parsers for a Web service-enabled application.
 
Resolving the problem
Ensure that your web service provider is using the parsers that come with WebSphere Application Server and not using parsers obtained from other sources.


For WebSphere Application Server V5.0, the application should be using the parsers in this jar: <install_root>/lib/xerces.jar

For WebSphere Application Server V5.1, the application should be using the parsers in this jar: <install_root>/java/jre/lib/xml.jar
