Specifying a “/” or an empty string as the context root of a web/web services project in Workshop adds an extra “/” to the URL after the port number as in: http://localhost:7001//HelloWorld.jws This issue will be fixed in Service Pack 2. The workaround is to remove the extra “/” and refresh the browser window.
