jbossws - Invalid byte 2 of 2-byte UTF-8 sequence

anders.hedstrom Mar 17, 2006 5:39 AM

Hi,

I consume a external web service and when I use jboss-ws4ee soap stack it works fine, but when a switch to jbossws soap stack I get the following exception: Invalid byte 2 of 2-byte UTF-8 sequence

When I look att the data received from the web service I can find one sequence of characters that I guess causes this exception,

<soap:body>
...
 <city>MALM&_#_x_D_6;</city>

(&_#_x_D_6; -> I've added the underscores, otherwise this forum transalated it to the correct character, Ö, so the underscores isn't present in the actual soap message...)

This character (&_#_x_D_6;) is the swedish character 'Ö' that the provider of the web service has encoded this way. Is this an invalid encoding? It passes thru the ws4ee soap stack but not the jbossws soapstack...

Here's the stack trace

This is the third mention of this problem by my count.

I have the same problem, mentioned here:

http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=76709

No resolution yet, I believe.

I am currently researching that too. Please update the forum with your outcomes, as I will do.

Hi guys, have a look at this...

I have solve my problem. I was encoding beans with java.beans.XMLEncoder, which encodes using UTF-8, then converting to String using default charset (Converters.getDefaultEncodingName()) which was windows code page 1252 "cp1252", that is, Win Latin 1.
Specifying "UTF-8" when converting from byte input stream to String has solved my problem.
