SOAP AXIS2 - Webservice on WebSphere 8.5 - web-services

Question

I am trying to create a Webservice implementation deployed on a WebSphere 8.5 application server.
I already created the skeleton and all the stubs but I don't know how to package my application.
I noticed that using axis2-wsdl2code-maven-plugin a services.xml file is created and this should replace the old WSDD file from axis1. However I don't know where should I place the services.xml and how to set web.xml (if it is needed).
Everything should be packaged in a simple war file.
I cannot find any simple documentation for this.
UPDATE:
I was able to deploy my application but I cannot reach neither the service nor its wsdl (the WSDL is not present inside the archive).
When I'm trying to reach my webservice i get:
org.apache.axis2.AxisFault: The service cannot be found for the
endpoint reference
I have the following services.xml file, located under WEB-INF/services fodler of my WAR archive.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><!-- This file was auto-generated from WSDL --><!-- by the Apache Axis2 version: 1.6.2 Built on : Apr 17, 2012 (05:33:49 IST) --><serviceGroup>
<service name="PagamentoBollettinoPostaleInf">
<messageReceivers>
<messageReceiver mep="http://www.w3.org/ns/wsdl/in-out" class="myservice.PagamentoBollettinoPostaleInfMessageReceiverInOut"/>
</messageReceivers>
<parameter name="ServiceClass">myservice.PagamentoBollettinoPostaleInfSkeleton</parameter>
<parameter name="useOriginalwsdl">true</parameter>
<parameter name="modifyUserWSDLPortAddress">true</parameter>
<operation name="getPagamentoBollettinoPostaleInf" mep="http://www.w3.org/ns/wsdl/in-out" namespace="******">
<actionMapping>urn:getPagamentoBollettinoPostaleInf</actionMapping>
<outputActionMapping>urn:getPagamentoBollettinoPostaleInfResponse</outputActionMapping>
</operation>
</service>
</serviceGroup>
This is my WEB.XML file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_3_0.xsd" version="3.0">
<display-name>inviaAnomalia</display-name>
<servlet>
<display-name>Apache-Axis Servlet</display-name>
<servlet-name>AxisServlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.apache.axis2.transport.http.AxisServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>

</servlet-mapping>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>AxisServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/services/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>
This is the endpoint i am trying to connect to:
http://localhost:9080/war_context_root/services/PagamentoBollettinoPostaleInf
This happens when I try to get the WSDL file of my webservice by connecting to: http://localhost:9080/war_context_root/services/PagamentoBollettinoPostaleInf?wsdl

SOLVED
The solution was to follow the steps shown here: http://maksim.sorokin.dk/it/2011/01/13/axis2-maven-servlets-tomcat/
Then, in order to deploy correctly, WSDL and services.xml descriptor file must be placed inside:
WEB-INF/services/<ServiceName>/META-INF
Furthermore, disabling IBM JAX-WS Engine as suggested by Bruce T. and setting the classloader as shown in the following image solved the issue.
