Hello,
I have problem with invoking external web service from BPEL process.
I've found a post with a similar problem (
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/ode-user/200812.mbox/%[email protected]%3e
), but there was no answer since then.
I've created a simple process. It gets an input of BPEL process and
assigns it to an input of external WS. Then, it invokes the WS and the
response is assigned to the output of the process.
When I am executing the BPEL process, the external WS is called, but it
can't parse properly the message it receives. Except "Hello, Ania!" I
get "Hello, null!" as a result from a BPEL process.
Here's a fragment from a server log:
(...)

endpoints in headers for session passing.

null!</return></ns2:sayHelloResponse></S:Body></S:Envelope>
(...)
How to resolve this problem? Any ideas?
Thanks,
Ania
