JAX-WS removed from Java 11

You can fix the issue by using alternate versions of the Java EE technologies. Simply add a com.sun.xml.ws : jaxws-ri Maven artifact that contains the technologies you need:

<groupId>com.sun.xml.ws</groupId>
<artifactId>jaxws-ri</artifactId>
<version>2.3.2</version>
<type>pom</type>
</dependency>

</dependency>
<dependency>
