Jeff Thomas commented on AXIS2-6061:
------------------------------------

I created a ticket for the same issue here AXIS2-6091.

I don't necessarily agree with this statement: "It simply makes no sense to 
expect a SOAP envelope with an HTTP-404.".

If the endpoint is to query a resource say by ID and that resource is not 
found, an endpoint may very well return a 404 with a SOAP fault. It depends on 
the endpoint.

It is also possible that the 404 returns a HTML page (like Tomcat) if the 
endpoint is not available.

I would hope one can distinguish the two responses by their content-types.
