I am using CXF on a command-line java application client to call a commercial .NET web service (Great Plains Web Service). Under some circumstances (probably triggered by a technical issue or by data I feed it) the service throws an exception, but all I receive in the client side is "org.apache.cxf.binding.soap.SoapFault: The application encountered an unhandled system exception. Contact your system administrator for details."
Clearly that doesn't tell me anything useful, so I wanted to see the SOAP request/response to see if there is more detail about the problem. Following the documentation I could find I did the following: 1.- Added "-Dorg.apache.cxf.Logger=org.apache.cxf.common.logging.Log4jLogger" to the Eclipse run configuration program arguments for the app, so that logging will go to the Log4jLogger that the application uses. 2.- Added the LoggingFeature to my <jaxws:client> tag as follows: <jaxws:client id="gpClient" address="http://myGPServer/DynamicsGPWebServices/DynamicsGPService.asmx"; serviceClass="com.microsoft.schemas.dynamics.gp._2006._01.DynamicsX0020GPSoap" > <jaxws:features> <bean class="org.apache.cxf.feature.LoggingFeature" /> </jaxws:features> </jaxws:client> 3.- Added the block to enable logging to the context file: <cxf:bus> <cxf:features> <cxf:logging/> </cxf:features> </cxf:bus> And frustratingly... the SOAP message request/response does not go to the console nor log4j. Where did I go wrong?
