SOAPFaultException "MustUnderstand headers (oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-secext-1.0.xsd) are not understood"


I try to get information from web service that uses PasswordText WSS type. Firstly, I test it using soapUI and successfully got data. Then I implemented authentication on Java, writing SecurityHandler:

public final class SecurityHandler implements SOAPHandler<SOAPMessageContext> {

...

@Override
public boolean handleMessage(SOAPMessageContext messageContext) {
    boolean outInd = (Boolean) messageContext.get(MessageContext.MESSAGE_OUTBOUND_PROPERTY);
    if (outInd) {
        try {
            WSSecUsernameToken builder = new WSSecUsernameToken();
            builder.setPasswordType(WSConstants.PASSWORD_TEXT);
            builder.setUserInfo(_username, _password);
            builder.addNonce();
            builder.addCreated();

            Document doc = messageContext.getMessage().getSOAPPart().getEnvelope().getOwnerDocument();
            WSSecHeader secHeader = new WSSecHeader();
            secHeader.insertSecurityHeader(doc);
            builder.build(doc, secHeader);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            LOGGER.error("Unable to handle SOAP message", e);
            return false;
        }
    }
    return true;
}

...
}

I checked doc object with XMLUtils.PrettyDocumentToString(doc) and saw, that it look likes XML sent by soupUI - all authentication information (login, password, nonce and created time) were on place, mustUnderstand attribute of Security tag was true.

Then I faced with error:

javax.xml.ws.soap.SOAPFaultException: MustUnderstand headers:[{http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-secext-1.0.xsd}Security] are not understood

I found advices to remove mustUnderstand attribute from Security tag, but it not helps. Do you have any ideas?

P.S.

Web service endpoint is on HTTPS.

Solution

  • I found the solution. Following dependencies were required:

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.cxf</groupId>
        <artifactId>cxf-rt-frontend-jaxws</artifactId>
        <version>2.2.3</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>

        <artifactId>cxf-rt-transports-http</artifactId>
        <version>2.2.3</version>
    </dependency>
