Axis 1.1 returns axis:Server.userException where it should return soapenv:Client. Because these fault codes are defined in a separate namespace, technically, this isn't a bug. But a developer should have the choice to return the standard soapenv fault codes.
This issue has been fixed in Axis 1.2. I'm not aware of a schema for http://xml.apache.org/axis/, but perhaps someone else is...

One of those brokers is already implemented, using Axis 1.1 with SOAP 1.1 RPC style, while our gateway is planning on Using WebLogic. The developers of the Axis service that we'll be invoking provided us some sample SOAP messages, including a Fault message. This message has the faultcode as <faultcode xmlns:ns1="http://xml.apache.org/axis/">ns1:Server.userException</faultcode> In order to validate the Fault message when received at my gateway, I need an XSD for the namespace "http://xml.apache.org/axis/". I searched all over the web as well as through all the Axis documentation on my computer, and I can't find such an XSD. Are consumers of Axis services expected to reverse-engineer the XSD from the Axis source code? Looking through the Axis source code (org.apache.axis.AxisFault, org.apache.axis.Constants), it seems that the QName content of <faultcode> (in a SOAP 1.1 context) can have the following values for its local part: Server.generalException Server.userException Server.NoService MustUnderstand VersionMismatch Curiously, I don't see the value "Client", which the SOAP spec says the service must return if the client submits an invalid request. I also conclude from the source code that the fault detail element will include: <detail> <!-- the <exceptionName> element is only present if the exception thrown was a subclass of AxisFault --> <exceptionName>exception name here</exceptionName> <ns2:stackTrace xmlns:ns2="http://xml.apache.org/axis/">string dump of the stack trace </stackTrace> </detail> Could someone please either a) Point me to an XSD for namespace "http://xml.apache.org/axis/" or b) Confirm that the above values for <faultcode> and <detail> properly describe what I need to specify in the XSD if I create it myself. Also, does Axis not use the <faultcode> value "Client"? -Mark Leone
