Internal Server Error in CreateItem operation of EWS


I'm using CreateItem Operation to save message in the Draft folder using EWS with gSOAP toolkit, but when i run the code I've response XML as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Envelope xmlns:s="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
    <s:Header>
        <Action s:mustUnderstand="1" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/ws/2005/05/addressing/none">*</Action>
    </s:Header>
    <s:Body>
        <s:Fault>
            <faultcode xmlns:a="http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/services/2006/types">a:ErrorInternalServerError</faultcode>
            <faultstring xml:lang="en-US">An internal server error occurred. The operation failed.</faultstring>
            <detail>
                <e:ResponseCode xmlns:e="http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/services/2006/errors">ErrorInternalServerError</e:ResponseCode>
                <e:Message xmlns:e="http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/services/2006/errors">An internal server error occurred. The operation failed.</e:Message>
            </detail>
        </s:Fault>
    </s:Body>
</s:Envelope>

and in the terminal the fault which i've got is:

SOAP 1.1 fault: SOAP-ENV:MustUnderstand[no subcode]
"The data in element 'Action' must be understood but cannot be processed"
Detail: [no detail]

and there is no compile time error. If you need code, kindly let me know, I'll give that also. Please help me, I've tried a lot, but not find the solution, no matter I change in code, the response XML remains same.

Request XML is as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:SOAP-ENC="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:ns1="http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/services/2006/types" xmlns:ews="http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/services/2006/messages">

                    </ns1:Mailbox>
                </ns1:ToRecipients>
            </ns1:Message>
        </ews:Items>
    </ews:CreateItem>
</SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

Solution

  • I would suggest you get rid of all the xsi:type attributes eg how to remove xsi:type information from gSoap message?

    Simplified your request should look like

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:SOAP-ENC="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:ns1="http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/services/2006/types" xmlns:ews="http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/services/2006/messages">
        <SOAP-ENV:Body>
           <ews:CreateItem MessageDisposition="SaveOnly">
           <ews:SavedItemFolderId>
               <ns1:DistinguishedFolderId Id="drafts" />
            </ews:SavedItemFolderId>
            <ews:Items>
                <ns1:Message>
                    <ns1:ItemClass>IPM.Note</ns1:ItemClass>
                    <ns1:Subject>Project Action</ns1:Subject>
                </ns1:Message>
            </ews:Items>
        </ews:CreateItem>
    </SOAP-ENV:Body>
    </SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
    

    Which works okay for me.

    cheers Glen
