SAAJ0537: Invalid Content-Type. Could be an error message instead of a SOAP message


Currently i'm implementing a usecase where i'm supposed to create a soap client which writes over HTTP protocol. To test the same usecase i have a mock service up and running. Now when i execute the SAAJ implementation of mine as a standalone jar my application works just well and doesn't have any issue.

My problem currently is that when i merge that code in an spring 4 based application and deploy it on Jboss AS 7.1.1, it gives me an error as below :

12:40:33,992 ERROR [stderr] (ActiveMQ Session Task-1) com.sun.xml.messaging.saaj.SOAPExceptionImpl: Invalid Content-Type:text/html. Is this an error message instead of a SOAP response?

12:40:33,994 ERROR [stderr] (ActiveMQ Session Task-1)   at com.sun.xml.messaging.saaj.soap.MessageImpl.identifyContentType(MessageImpl.java:670)

12:40:33,996 ERROR [stderr] (ActiveMQ Session Task-1)   at com.sun.xml.messaging.saaj.soap.MessageFactoryImpl.createMessage(MessageFactoryImpl.java:100)

12:40:33,997 ERROR [stderr] (ActiveMQ Session Task-1)   at com.sun.xml.messaging.saaj.client.p2p.HttpSOAPConnection.post(HttpSOAPConnection.java:342)

12:40:33,999 ERROR [stderr] (ActiveMQ Session Task-1)   at com.sun.xml.messaging.saaj.client.p2p.HttpSOAPConnection.call(HttpSOAPConnection.java:159)

Initially i assumed it to be an issue due to other spring dependencies because previously i have struggled with same issues however that isn't the case here, as u can see in pom entries below i removed the conflicting spring -boot-autoconfigure APIS from my war build by making them optional.

my maven dependencies are as below :

Please do let me know if there is any suggestion for this problem.


Solution

  • I tried using the basic java.net HTTP connection to check what data i'm getting and found that i was really getting the html page for the mock service's port.(localhost:9997) Say my service is up on the URL : "http://localhost:9997/mockSoapBinding" So i was getting data for the URL : "http://localhost:9997" instead of the web service exposed.

    To check same i used the code below :

    public String handleRequest(String method, String url, String xmlPayload,String readTimeout,String connectTimeout,String soapAction) throws IOException {
        HttpURLConnection connection = null;
        OutputStreamWriter wr = null;
        BufferedReader in = null;
        String result = "";
    
        try {
            URL connectionUrl = new URL(url);
            connection = (HttpURLConnection) connectionUrl.openConnection();
            connection.setRequestMethod(method);
            if ( xmlPayload != null && ! xmlPayload.equals("")) {
                connection.setReadTimeout(Integer.parseInt(readTimeout));
                connection.setConnectTimeout(Integer.parseInt(connectTimeout));
                connection.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "text/xml;charset=UTF-8");
                /*connection.setRequestProperty("SOAPAction", soapAction);*/
                connection.setDoOutput(true);
                wr = new OutputStreamWriter(connection.getOutputStream());
                wr.write(xmlPayload);
                wr.flush();
            }
            try {
                // getInputStream will throw exception when response code is
                // greater than 400, so we need to getErrorStream
                in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(connection.getInputStream()));
            } catch (Exception e) {
                in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(connection.getErrorStream()));
            }
            StringBuilder bodyBuilder = new StringBuilder();
            String inputLine;
            while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null) {
                bodyBuilder.append(inputLine);
            }
            in.close();
            result = String.valueOf( bodyBuilder.toString());
            System.out.println(result);
    
        } catch(Exception e){
            logger.error("Error occured while send message for : " , e);
                }finally {
            if (wr != null) {
                wr.close();
            }
            if (in != null) {
                in.close();
            }
            if ( connection != null ) {
                connection.disconnect();
            }
    
        }
    
        return result;
    }
    

    Do note this is also an alternative to SAAJ implementation.
