Below is the question asked by my colleague on stack exchange but, I thought I would post here too. We are not able to call an external web service.
I am facing exact same issue that has been asked in this question: here.
I am writing a custom component for AEM 6.2 which will call an external web service and get some data. I followed the tutorial they had on here. I have unit tested my code and works fine, but when I deploy the component inside AEM, it gives me NullPointerException at this line of my code(getPort!):
MyService service = new MyService_Service().getMyServicePort();
I used maven, cxf-codegen-plugin, to generate client code.
The question that was asked is marked as answered but I couldn't figure out what the answer was really! Can anyone explain [possibly with sample config/code] what do I exactly need do to?
Here is my stack trace:
