title: SOAPMonitor unable to communicate with server
body: <p>I have a problem with my Apache Axis 1.4 service, using the SOAPMonitor which comes with the binaries.  </p>
  
  <p>While the applet starts up with no problems (e.g. <a href="http://localhost:8080/axis/SOAPMonitor" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://localhost:8080/axis/SOAPMonitor</a>), the status bar in the embedded application gives the following error message:
  "The SOAP Monitor is unable to communicate with the server"</p>
  
  <p>Some further reading that I have already tried:</p>
