Hi devs,
I was trying accessing an external webservice using service client as
follows,
ServiceClient serviceClient = new ServiceClient(null, new URL("
http://www.webservicex.net/CurrencyConvertor.asmx?wsdl"), new QName("
http://www.webserviceX.NET/","CurrencyConvertor"), "CurrencyConvertorSoap");
StAXOMBuilder stAXOMBuilder = new StAXOMBuilder(new
ByteArrayInputStream(
"<ConversionRate><FromCurrency>USD</FromCurrency><ToCurrency>LKR</ToCurrency></ConversionRate>".getBytes()));
OMElement omElement = serviceClient.sendReceive(
new QName("http://www.webserviceX.NET/", "ConversionRate"),
stAXOMBuilder.getDocumentElement());
System.out.println(omElement.toString());
But this call was failing with the exception
"System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: Server did not recognize the
value of HTTP Header SOAPAction: ."
The request sent by the client had the header SOAPAction: "" whereas the
WSDL had <soap:operation soapAction="
http://www.webserviceX.NET/ConversionRate" style="document"/>
debugging through I noticed the following lines in
WSDL11ToAxisServiceBuilder (Line 2340)
if (isServerSide) {
axisBindingOperation.getAxisOperation().setSoapAction(soapActionURI);
}
else {
axisBindingOperation.getAxisOperation().setOutputAction(soapActionURI);
}
and CommonsHTTPTransportSender has the following in line 200
soapActionString = messageContext.getAxisOperation()
.getSoapAction();
Now this looks like a bug to me. Does anybody have a clue as to why we dont
set the soapAction on the axisoperation when the axisService is on the
client side?
Thanks,
Keith.
