Error description

• The following issue prevents creating a new Java API web
  service using the Firefox browser:
  
  1. When the new web service definition is edited in Web Service
  Console, there is user interface element titled Web Service
  Implementation which has two options Script and Java.
  
  For Java API web service the fore mentioned user interface
  element should be changed to Java.
  After the Java radio button is toggled, ther implementation
  script user interface element should be dynamically
  changed to two user interface elements titled Java
  Implementation Class and WSDD.
  However when using the Firefox browser to create a new Java API
  web service switching the Web Service Implementation element
  to Java does not change the implementation script user
  interface element and thus it is impossible to create new Java
  API web service using the Firefox.
  
  The fore mentioned issues occurs only Firefox browser.
  Using the Internet Explorer browser there are no fore mentioned
  issues on creating new Java API web service in Web
  Service Console.
  

Local fix

• The fore mentioned issue occurs only when using the  Firefox
  browser.
  Using Microsoft Internet Explorer browser there are no issues.

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

Comments

• Problem :
  In the new web services screen, selecting Java as the web
  service implementation should display a Field for name of
  Implementation class.
  
  Test Case:
  Add soap_company and soap_user in common.properties file to
  access the webservices console.
  
  -- Start MDM
  -- Open new webservice screen.
  -- Choose java as web service implementation
  -- Web service implementation should have another field when
  java is selected to mention the implementation class.
  
  The above test case shows the webservices screen and we are able
  to create a Java Webservice, thus marking it Works for Me
