My application needs to connect to a web service. The WSDL file given by the client was converted to java using the wsdl2java utility in axis 2-1.5.2. The problem occurs during the first connection to the webservice. It gives me

java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out

I tried searching the web for answers though there was one place which mentions it could be the firewall at the webservice end that is blocking, I wasnt able to find a valid solution. Any help will be much appreciated.

Running:

• Apache Tomcat 6.0
• Axis2 1.5.2
