org.apache.axis2.AxisFault: [was class java.net.ConnectException] Connection refused: connect

Hi,

I developed a simple webservice to return a string based on an input
string sent by the client.
I configured my apache tomcat and axis2 for https on port 8443.

When I send a query, it got received by the server as I can display
the input string from the skeleton class and see it on tomcat log.
However the client didn't receive any response but rather throws the
following error:

Any idea?

Thanks,
