Rough guess, (and this is something that surprised me a while back until I read the code) Try re-formatting your SOAP request so it looks like :
<pmapi:deploy xmlns:pmapi="http://www.apache.org/ode/pmapi"; xmlns:dep=" http://www.apache.org/ode/deployapi"; xmlns:xmlmime=" http://www.w3.org/2005/05/xmlmime "><dep:name>xxx</dep:name><dep:package><dep:zip xmlmime:contentType="application/zip">base64encodedzip</dep:zip></dep:package></pmapi:deploy> (that is all on one line.) Iirc when there's a carriage return either before or after the name then you get strange null pointer exceptions in the DeploymentWebservice code as it expects the Xml to be in a particular form and text-nodes in the DOM *really* make it un-happy. *HOWEVER* this doesn't sound like your un-deployment problem! Fwiw I've never reported this as a bug as it seems so deliberate I figure I'm mis-understanding something on my end (I look forward to being corrected by smarter folks shortly ! :) ) - Cj. P.s. for those who care on current ODE 1_XX branch (r766055) the lines of interest are 112 - 114 on the DeploymentWebService.java On Mon, Apr 20, 2009 at 7:41 AM, buddhika chamith <[email protected]>wrote: > Hi all, > > I am trying to use ODE deployment web service to deploy and undeploy > processes.
