Axis error when calling deployed service on weblogic

Question

Hi,
I am trying to deploy the simple HelloWorld service using an .ear file on the weblogic8.1 server. But when I am trying to call the service, its giving me the error:
**Fault - ; nested exception is:**
** org.apache.axis.ConfigurationException: Could not find class for the service named: com.tutorial.Hello**
**Hint: you may need to copy your class files/tree into the right location (which depends on the servlet system you are using).; nested exception is:**
** java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Class bytes found but defineClass()failed for: 'com.tutorial.Hello'**
**AxisFault**
**faultCode: {http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/}Server.generalException**
**faultSubcode:**
**faultString: Could not find class for the service named: com.tutorial.Hello**
**Hint: you may need to copy your class files/tree into the right location (which depends on the servlet system you are using).; nested exception is:**
** java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Class bytes found but defineClass()failed for: 'com.tutorial.Hello'**
From what I read, the problem seems to be associated with the deploy.wsdd file. Hence I am giving the description of that file below:**
**<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><!-- Use this file to deploy some handlers/chains and services --><!-- Two ways to do this: --><!-- java org.apache.axis.client.AdminClient deploy.wsdd --><!-- after the axis server is running --><!-- or --><!-- java org.apache.axis.utils.Admin client|server deploy.wsdd --><!-- from the same directory that the Axis engine runs --><deployment xmlns="http://xml.apache.org/axis/wsdd/" xmlns:java="http://xml.apache.org/axis/wsdd/providers/java">**
**<!-- Services from HelloService WSDL service -->**
**<service name="Hello" provider="java:RPC" style="rpc" use="encoded">**
**<parameter name="wsdlTargetNamespace" value="http://tutorial.com"/>**
**<parameter name="wsdlServiceElement" value="HelloService"/>**
**<parameter name="wsdlServicePort" value="Hello"/>**
**<parameter name="className" value="com.tutorial.Hello"/>**
**<parameter name="wsdlPortType" value="Hello"/>**
**<parameter name="typeMappingVersion" value="1.2"/>**
**<operation xmlns:operNS="http://tutorial.com" xmlns:rtns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" name="sayHello" qname="operNS:sayHello" returnQName="sayHelloReturn" returnType="rtns:string" soapAction="">**
**<parameter xmlns:tns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" qname="name" type="tns:string"/>**
**</operation>**
**<parameter name="allowedMethods" value="sayHello"/>**
**</service>**
**</deployment>**
Please let me know where do I need to make the changes or give some hint towards this error.

http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html
Also have a look at this note
