Issue/Introduction

Attempting to use the CXF web services after installing 17.4, are there any special steps for deploying web services, or are they available after a completed install

if I go to url https://localhost:8443/cxf/ I will get a 404 Not Found error

Environment

Release 17.4 and higher (CXF Web services)
CA Service Desk Manager

Resolution

the following URL will return a 404 not found error:

http://SDM-SERVER:8080/cxf/

However, these two URLs, which show the CXF services list and the WSDL for the CXF based web services, are both accessible from a standard web browser.

http://SDM-SERVER:8080/cxf/services
http://SDM-SERVER:8080/cxf/services/USD_WebService?wsdl
