Integration Server includes an option to allow the URL for a well-known XML schema definitions namespace and schemaLocation attribute to be omitted from the import statement in the WSDL document generated for a provider web service descriptor.

During web service processing, which includes creating a web service descriptor from a WSDL document and generating a WSDL document for a provider web service descriptor, Integration Server de-references XML schema definitions that contain import statements with a schemaLocation attribute that specifies an external URL. To resolve the URLs, Integration Server requires a connection to the Internet.

Integration Server provides a configuration option to indicate that, when generating a WSDL document for a provider web service descriptor, Integration Serverwill not include the schemaLocation attribute for well-known namespaces. When the schemaLocation attribute is not present, an Integration Server that consumes the WSDL document will not de-reference the schemaLocation attribute value during web service processing. If a schemaLocation attributes in the WSDL document reference only the well-known namespace, then web service development can occur without an Internet connection.

The well-known namespaces that are affected by this setting are:

To configure Integration Server to omit the addition of schemaLocation for the above namespaces, set the watt.core.xsd.useKnownSchemaLocation server configuration parameter to false.
