Bad parsing of content type header for multipart messages
---------------------------------------------------------
Key: AXIS-2319
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS-2319
Project: Apache Axis
Type: Bug
Components: Basic Architecture
Versions: 1.1
Reporter: Mattias Norlander
I am accessing axis (v1.1) web services from a php client.
When trying to send messages with attachments, the server cannot process them.
This is what I get:
Error in parsing mime data stream: null
at
org.apache.axis.attachments.MultiPartRelatedInputStream.<init>(MultiPartRelatedInputStream.java:368)
After some debugging I figured out where the problem was.
The content type header sent from php looks like this:
multipart/related; boundary="abc"; type=text/xml
Axis (MultiPartRelatedInputStream class) will then pass this data to the
constructor for
javax.mail.internet.ContentType. This constructor will then throw an exception.
The
workaround is to add double quotes around the "text/xml" part, like this:
multipart/related; boundary="abc"; type="text/xml"
... and everything works fine. The problem is this cannot be done without
altering the actual PHP soap
implementation. And also, as far as I can see, the quotes are not mandatory. If
you look at the examples
from w3, they don't use them:
http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/NOTE-SOAP-attachments-20001211#SOAPMultipart
So I would consider this a bug in axis.
