There is a method in the Exception class named #getFaultMessage. This returns blank, which is correct since there is no text in the exception. It would be very easy if this was the answer. I need to get the faultstring. The faultstring is outside the exception. See the XML snippet below. I'm working on a different way of sending the request and capturing the response. There is a lot more coding involved but appears to be the only way to get the faultstring element. Thanks, J

You can process in 3 ways. 1) IN your client code you need an catch block for AxisFault and U need to retrieve the message from that exception try{ //Client code }catch(AxisFault af){ if(af!=null){ String faultMsg = af.getMessage(); System.out.println("FaultString :: "+faultMsg ); } } 2) If it is coming as a string, then you can do some String operation. 3) You can also take the help of dom parser or sax parse to retrieve the specific value, because it is coming as a xml format.
