camel route with cxf provider goes into endless loop

[nvaneijck]

Hi,

I want to expose a webservice, transform the request to another request, call a second webservice, transform the response and return this new response.

Therefor I'm trying out this JBI-Camel Route scenario:

CXFBC-Consumer -> JBI-Saxon (Xslt) -> Log -> CXFBC-Provider -> JBI-Saxon (Xslt)

I notice that I get into some sort of endless loop as soon as I execute the Provider step (The Log step keeps showing up, I also have the idea that the loop starts with the beginning of the camel route?)

I have attached the SA. I am mocking the provider Webservice using soapUI, the WSDL I use is also attached.

Please help me out with this, I'm completely stuck!

Here are the configurations (maybe I'm missing something here):

camel-context.xml

<camelContext xmlns="http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring" id="camel">

<route>

<from uri="jbi:endpoint:http://nfi.minvenj.nl/ws-poc/1/camel/route"/>

<to uri="jbi:endpoint:http://nfi.minvenj.nl/ws-poc/1/xslt/create-request"/>

<to uri="log:wspoc?showAll=true"/>

<to uri="jbi:endpoint:http://servicemix.apache.org/samples/wsdl-first/PersonService/PersonSOAPBinding?mep=in-out&operation=GetPerson"/>

<to uri="jbi:endpoint:http://nfi.minvenj.nl/ws-poc/1/xslt/create-response"/>

</route>

</camelContext>

CXFBC xbean.xml

<cxfbc:consumer wsdl="classpath:service.wsdl"

targetService="wspoc:camel"

targetEndpoint="route"

schemaValidationEnabled="true"

useJBIWrapper="false"

/>

<cxfbc:provider

service="person:PersonService"

endpoint="person:PersonSOAPBinding"

wsdl="http://localhost:8080/personservice/?wsdl"

useJBIWrapper="false"

/>

Saxon xbean.xml

<saxon:xslt service="wspoc:xslt" endpoint="create-request"

resource="classpath:create_request.xsl" />

<saxon:xslt service="wspoc:xslt" endpoint="create-response"

resource="classpath:create_response.xsl" />

I've done a bit further testing, and I came to the conclusion that the route, when it arrives at the cxfbc provider endpoint, loops back to the beginning of the route! The webservice behind the endpoint is also never called!

I'm stuck, what am I doing wrong here?

Is it a requirement to use JBI?

If not then do not use it. We encourage people to use plain CXF and Camel ove JBI.

JBI is being deprecated.
