Apache AXIS 1.4 and old SOAP package

[Filipe David Manana]

Hi,

In the organization where I work, there is a SOAP server implemented
in Perl (through SOAPLite).
A Java client exists, which uses the old Apache SOAP package. This
client works perfectly.
I have now orders to migrate to AXIS 1.4. Although I am not able to do
it, I always get an exception when I invoke my Call's class instance
"invoke" method.
The exception and its details are:

SAXParseException: Content is not allowed in trailing section

My client code is:

import org.apache.axis.client.Call;
import org.apache.axis.client.Service;
import org.apache.axis.encoding.XMLType;
import javax.xml.rpc.ParameterMode;
import javax.xml.rpc.ServiceException;

public class UserAuthentication
{
   public static final String AUTH_SERVER = "cdbserv02.cern.ch";
   public static final String END_POINT = "https://"; + AUTH_SERVER +
"/cgi-bin/cdbweb.fcgi";;

     public static boolean isValidUser(String userName, String passwd)
            throws Exception
   {
      Service service = new Service();
      Call call = null;

      try
      {
         call = (Call) service.createCall();
      }
      catch( ServiceException ex )
      {
         log.error("Error creating SOAP call: " + ex.getMessage());
         throw ex;
      }

      call.setTargetEndpointAddress(END_POINT);
      call.setSOAPActionURI("cdbsoap");
      call.setOperationName("cdb_login");
      call.addParameter("username", XMLType.XSD_STRING, ParameterMode.IN);
      call.addParameter("password", XMLType.XSD_STRING, ParameterMode.IN);
      call.setReturnType(XMLType.XSD_STRING);

      String ret = null;

      try
      {
         ret = (String) call.invoke(new Object[] { userName, passwd });
      }
      catch( Exception ex )
      {
         log.error("SOAP call error: " + ex.getMessage());
         throw ex;
      }

      if ( log.isDebugEnabled() )
      {
         log.debug("Message received from CDB SOAPinterface: " + ret);
      }

      if ( ret.contains("authentication failed") )
      {
         log.warn("Invalid login attempt by user '" + userName + "'");
         return false;
      }

      return true;
   }
}


The code of the client using the old SOAP package is:


import oracle.soap.transport.http.OracleSOAPHTTPConnection;
import org.apache.soap.encoding.SOAPMappingRegistry;
import org.apache.soap.Constants;
import org.apache.soap.Fault;
import org.apache.soap.SOAPException;
import org.apache.soap.rpc.Call;
import org.apache.soap.rpc.Parameter;
import org.apache.soap.rpc.Response;
import java.net.URL;
import java.util.Vector;
import java.util.Properties;


public class CDBSoapStub {

 public String endpoint = null;
 private String targetObjectURI = "cdbsoap";
 private OracleSOAPHTTPConnection m_httpConnection = null;
 private SOAPMappingRegistry m_smr = null;

 public CDBSoapStub(String server) {
 endpoint = "https://"; + server + "/cgi-bin/cdbweb.fcgi";
 m_httpConnection = new OracleSOAPHTTPConnection();
 m_smr = new SOAPMappingRegistry();
 }

 public String login(String username, String password) throws Exception {
 String returnVal = null;

 System.setProperty("java.protocol.handler.pkgs",
"sun.net.www.protocol | HTTPClient");

 URL endpointURL = new URL(endpoint);

 Call call = new Call();
 call.setSOAPTransport(m_httpConnection);
 call.setTargetObjectURI(targetObjectURI);
 call.setMethodName("cdb_login");
 call.setEncodingStyleURI(Constants.NS_URI_SOAP_ENC);


 Vector params = new Vector();
 params.addElement(new Parameter("username", java.lang.String.class,
username, null));
 params.addElement(new Parameter("password", java.lang.String.class,
password, null));
 call.setParams(params);
 call.setSOAPMappingRegistry(m_smr);

 Response response = call.invoke(endpointURL, "");

 if (!response.generatedFault()) {
 Parameter result = response.getReturnValue();
 returnVal = "Value = " + result.getValue().toString();
 }
 else {
 Fault fault = response.getFault();
 returnVal = fault.getFaultString();
 throw new SOAPException(fault.getFaultCode(), fault.getFaultString());
 }

 return returnVal;
 }

}


Any suggestion?

Thank you
