Thanks, it is a good article, but I've already got that aspect working.
If I throw a SOAP fault (whether declared in the WSDL or not) everything behaves as I want it to.

The problem is that the CXF client is converting an IOException into a SoapFault and losing the IOException. It does log when it does this, but I want the information available to my client.

Hi,

How can my CXF client tell what type of thing went wrong?
I want to be able to classify faults into network faults and remote server
faults, because the response to the two is very different.
If I simply call the proxy with a few different failures all I get is a
SOAPFaultException with a cause of a SoapFault exception.
I was hoping that the network fault would have a root cause of some kind
of IOException.

This pair was caused by accessing a port that wasn't listening:
TestBrokenNetwork::test1] Exception: class 
javax.xml.ws.soap.**SOAPFaultException:
Could not send Message.
TestBrokenNetwork::test1] Exception: class 
org.apache.cxf.binding.soap.**SoapFault:
Could not send Message.

This was caused by an IllegalArgumentException thrown within the server
implementation:
TestLogging::testException] Exception: class 
javax.xml.ws.soap.**SOAPFaultException:
You passed in the illegal word
TestLogging::testException] Exception: class org.apache.cxf.binding.soap.*
*SoapFault: You passed in the illegal word

This was caused by an explicit throw of a SoapFault by the server
implementation:
TestLogging::testSoapFault] Exception: class 
javax.xml.ws.soap.**SOAPFaultException:
You passed in the triger word
TestLogging::testSoapFault] Exception: class org.apache.cxf.binding.soap.*
*SoapFault: You passed in the triger word

Is there any way to get more detail for classification?

Thanks.
