FileNotFoundException in Eclipse when creating a webservice

I am using SpringSource Tool Suite Version: 2.8.1.RELEASE

Some time whenever I am stuck up at creating a simple web service:

I created a test project called WebService (File > New > Dynamic Project)
Following one online tutorial to create a web service, I created a class as:

package com.dineshonjava.ws;

import javax.jws.WebMethod;
import javax.jws.WebService;
import javax.jws.soap.SOAPBinding;
import javax.jws.soap.SOAPBinding.Style;

/**
 * @author Dinesh Rajput
 * Service Endpoint Interface
 */

@WebService
@SOAPBinding(style = Style.RPC)
public interface HelloWorld {
 @WebMethod 
 String sayHelloWorld(String name);
}

Next, I right Clicked WebServiceProject- > Web services > Create Web service
Type: Bottom up Java bean web service
Service implementation: com.dineshonjava.HelloWorldImpl

Upon clicking finish, i get the error:

For resolving this issue you have to follow the following steps:
1. downloading the file saaj.jar and copying it to the location: 

C:Program Files (x86)springsourcests-2.8.1.RELEASEpluginsorg.apache.axis_1.4.0.v201005080400lib

2. Eclipse points to the axis installation directory:

Window > Preferences > Web Services > Axis2 Preferences > Axis2 runtime location

3. Stop server and close all applications which uses java including eclipse(STS).
Open eclipse installation folder
Go to Plugins folder.
Search javax.xml.soap_1.3.0.*
Delete the javax.xml.soap_1.3.0.*****.jar file
Now open eclipse (STS) and try with your webservice.
