RE: org.apache.axis2.AxisFault: Invalid UTF-8 start byte 0x9d

Assuming that the service is over HTTP, can you look at it through TCPMon (or other sniffer) and see if the charset is defined in the header?     -----Original Message----- From: sridhar vudutha [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, November 10, 2006 3:43 PM To: axis-user@ws.apache.org Subject: org.apache.axis2.AxisFault: Invalid UTF-8 start byte 0x9d   Hello All,     When I call one of the web service methods (third party service written in .NET) , the following exception is thrown. I think there might be some characters which the XML Reader doesn't like. If anybody knows how to over come this problem, that would be  a great help.
