We've run into the same problem with Flash. It won't be your first,
believe me.
We got around this by writing a standard servlet filter that wraps the
servlet response object with its own implementation. The implementation
overrides the sendError and setStatus methods on the response class, and
change the status code from 500 to 200 as necessary. Works like a
charm, and isn't specific to XFire (we needed this same hack for Axis as
well).
Hope this helps,

Isn't it SOAP fault would be part of the body? (I am not that deep into
web services)
I am trying to tweak status code because Adobe Flex manual have the
following statement:
"On web browsers, when a service returns any status code other than 200,
Adobe Flash Player
cannot read the body of the response. If the status code is 500 and the
body contains a
fault, there is no way to get to the fault. The proxy works around this
issue by forcing the
status code for faults to 200; the player passes the body of the
response along with the
fault intact. "
(I cannot use flex proxy - it's requires additional server side module I
don't have)
That kind of implies that fault is the part of the body, and body cannot
be read by Flash Player for any other code then 200.
I don't expect any other clients use the same web service, so I don't
really worry if SOAP response is 100% up to spec.
That's why I try to figure out is there are any way to add some handler
or something else to have control over HTTP status code.
Any ideas are very appreciated.
Thank you,
Roman

You can't. HTTP status code 500 is required by SOAP spec if fault is
returned ( as i remember :). But why you try to use SOAP body? Some
additional info can be added to SOAP faults.
