    Error while attempting to call Web Service using SOAPClient

    dansalt

      Hi,

      I'm using JBoss ESB4.2GA running within JBoss AS 4.2.1GA. I've got the Quickstarts up and running and all seems to be OK. I'm now trying to prototype some code and am running into problems.

      I've got a number of Web Services deployed and want to use the ESB as a "proxy" to them. So I have an ESB project that receives the WS SOAP message, routes to the SOAPClient which calls the "real" Web Service.

      I started with no code and the following config:

      <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
      <jbossesb xmlns="http://anonsvn.labs.jboss.com/labs/jbossesb/trunk/product/etc/schemas/xml/jbossesb-1.0.1.xsd"

       </action>
       </actions>
       </service>
       </services>
      </jbossesb>
      


      When I run this, I got the following error:

      09:28:56,757 INFO [ServiceInvoker] Unresponsive EPR: EPR: PortReference < <wsa:Address http://localhost:9876/> >

      Looking into this, it appears that the method in question (SOAPClient.java:304) was having problems with the fact that my Web Service does not take or return any parameters. In the event of a empty map, it tries to take the Message Body and cast it to a map. In the case above, it was a String, thus the failure.

      Now I appreciate that the documentation says that I must set an empty map, but surely it would be neater to handle this case without custom code?

      Anyways, I create a basic pre/post class which simply sets an empty map in the message. I added the following:

      <action name="pre-request-mapper" class="ge.energy.systems.soa.examples.esb.actions.EmptyParameterRequestMapper" />
      


      This now gets much further, calls my Web Service, but then fails on the return.

      I wasn't able to accurately debug what was going on - can anyone help me? The "real" WebService works fine outside of this example. It's prototype is very simply:

      void switchOnLight()


      Many Thanks,
      Dan

          After extensive digging, I've found this:

          http://jira.jboss.com:8080/jira/browse/JBWS-1824

          Can anyone confirm that this what is causing what I am seeing? In the meantime I will download the latest WS stack and see if it improves the situation.

          Cheers,
          Dan

            Is "http://localhost:8080/LightServices/LightSwitchBean?wsdl" a JBossWS endpoint? If so then you should consider the use of the following:

            <action name="JBossWSAdapter"
             class="org.jboss.soa.esb.actions.soap.SOAPProcessor">
             <property name="jbossws-endpoint" value="GoodbyeWorldWS"/>
            </action>


            The SoapClient action is more targeted at non-JBossWS endpoints (e.g. those hosted on another App Server or .NET, etc) and is focused on exposing WS endpoints as JMS or some other ESB supported transport.

            Another likely cause of your issue (related to SoapClient) is that request mapping can be tricky. Make sure to first call your soap endpoint with SoapUI (soapui.org) to see how it should look. Then dump your message to the console in your action chain to see what it really looks like. Then have your "mapper" class build a nice clean hashmap (follow the webservice_consumer examples).

            However, if you have a JBossWS endpoint, try SoapProcessor as well.

              Dan, what you're seeing is a known issue with JBossRemoting (http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBESB-783) and has been fixed in the JBossRemoting 2.2.2.SP2. It you patch your AS with this, you should get past this issue.

              T.

                Hi,

                I've followed the JIRA issue back to the JBoss Remoting link (http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBREM-653), where it states that it was fixed in 2.2.2 SP1, and downloaded the updated jboss-remoting.jar from here:

                http://repository.jboss.com/jboss/remoting/2.2.2.SP1-brew/lib/

                Replaced the jar in both the /client and the /server/default/lib directories.

                But the same thing happens, no change to the stack trace or the eventual outcome.

                Is there something else I should have done to patch this?

                Cheers,
                Dan

                  Hi again,

                  As a followup to this, I have also located and downloaded the very latest JBoss-Remoting.jar (2.2.2GA-CP01) from the repository. Again, I have replaced the versions in /client and /server/default/lib, and cleared out the tmp/work areas and restarted. Still no change to the outcome.

                  Any ideas?

                  Cheers,
                  Dan

                    Sorry Dan, after reading back through your posts there I notice something important... you're using JBossESB 4.2GA. I'm afraid you'll still have this issue with 4.2GA because it's not setting the Content-Type. Are you in a position to checkout and try 4.2.1 IR2 from SVN?

                      Hi,

                      Thanks for the reply. I'm sure that I could try the latest build, although I've not done it before and thus far have not found anywhere that describes how to check-out the source. Is there a "readme" or Wiki?

                      Cheers,
                      Dan

                        .... ignore the previous post.

                        Sod's Law came into effect, and I found the help pages I was looking for. Will let you know if the new version fixes the problem.

                        Cheers,

                          Hi again,

                          Still no luck - can anyone spot what I've missed??

                          I'm now using JBossESB 4.2.1 IR1, and the jboss-remoting.jar version 2.2.2 SP2. Cleared out all temporary data, etc.

                          It still sends back the data as text/html.

                            Sorry - typo - I've built JBoss ESB 4.2.1 IR2

                              Sorry Dan. Can you try this....

                              Create a "SetMessageProperty" action that looks like this...

                              public class SetMessageProperty extends AbstractActionPipelineProcessor {
                              
                               private ConfigTree config;
                              
                               public SetMessageProperty(ConfigTree config) {
                               this.config = config;
                               }
                              
                               public Message process(Message message) throws ActionProcessingException {
                               Set<String> attribs = config.getAttributeNames();
                              
                               for (String attrib : attribs) {
                               message.getProperties().setProperty(attrib, config.getAttribute(attrib));
                               }
                              
                               return message;
                               }
                              }
                              


                              Then add a config (after the SOAPClient) for setting the "Content-Type" for the JBossRemotingGateway response (this should actually be supported by the gateway)....

                              <action name="Set-Properties" class="com.blah.SetMessageProperty">
                               <property name="Content-Type" value="text/xml;charset=UTF-8"/>
                              </action>

                                Ah-ha!! Success! :)

                                Okay, so what does this mean? That I don't have a correct version somewhere? Is there any way that I can programatically confirm what version of the ESB and Gateway I'm running?

                                Cheers,
                                Dan
