How do you force CXF to use SOAP 1.0?

Thu, 24 Jan 2008 10:06:06 -0800

I reread my own posting and realized that the problem is not in the detail element, but in the <faultcode> element which contains an arbitrary string, "ServerFaultCode", not a QName. The exception says: 

"No NamespaceURI, SOAP requires faultcode content to be a QName"
I believe the faultcode element and QName requirement was introduced with SOAP 1.1. Can CXF be forced to validate using SOAP 1.0? If so, how? What are the ramifications? I checked the schemas specified in the WSDL document and they appear to be SOAP 1.0. Why didn't CXF automatically use same SOAP 1.0 schemas as were defined in the WSDL document?
The VMWare/Axis web service appears to be placing the qualified fault element in the contents of the <detail> element. How do I get around this? Is there a way (interceptor?) to fix the XML prior to being parsed? This would involve moving and translating the <detail> element contents to a QName stored in the contents of the <faultcode> element. If I can force CXF to SOAP 1.0, will it still know to generate an exception using the QName in the <detail> element? Or is where I would use a custom Interceptor and specify it in the <inFaultInterceptors> of the CXF Spring configuration. Has anyone already written an Axis to CXF fault translator? 

Thank you for your help.

Thank you.

I am writing a client to a VMWare management web service. In working with the API, I made a mistake and a SOAP fault was thrown. That is not the problem. Instead of an WSDL generated exception class being thrown, I got what appears to be a validation error during parsing of the SOAP fault. Below is the SOAP fault message that caused the exception and below that is the stack trace. SOAP fault message: 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenc="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"; xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"; 
                 xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
                 xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";>
   <soapenv:Body>
       <soapenv:Fault>
           <faultcode>ServerFaultCode</faultcode>
           <faultstring>specSet</faultstring>
           <detail>
<InvalidRequestFault xmlns="urn:vim2" xsi:type="InvalidRequest"/> 
           </detail>
       </soapenv:Fault>
   </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

Here is the stack trace:
