Description
When sending an invalid SOAP message specifically with an incorrect end tag:
snip... <soapenv:Body> <cus:lookupCustomer> <customerId>1</customerId> <customerId2>1</customerId2> <cus:lookupCustomer> <------- no slash. </soapenv:Body> end snip..
The wrong SOAP fault is thrown when using the WSS4JInInterceptor:
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<soap:Body>
<soap:Fault>
<faultcode>soap:Client</faultcode>
<faultstring>Problems creating SAAJ object model</faultstring>
</soap:Fault>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
When the WSS4JInInterceptor is removed the following exception is thrown:
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"> <soap:Body> <soap:Fault> <faultcode>soap:Client</faultcode> <faultstring>Unmarshalling Error: cvc-complex-type.2.4.d: Invalid content was found starting with element 'cus:lookupCustomer'. No child element is expected at this point.</faultstring> </soap:Fault> </soap:Body> </soap:Envelope>
If you enable the WSS4JInInterceptor, CXF will use SAAJInInterceptor to create a SOAP message for using.
That could explain that you got the "Problems creating SAAJ object model" message.
I just checked the code of SAAJInInterceptor, it just wrap the real cause of exception message like this
} catch (SOAPException soape) { throw new SoapFault(new org.apache.cxf.common.i18n.Message( "SOAPHANDLERINTERCEPTOR_EXCEPTION", BUNDLE), soape, message.getVersion().getSender()); } catch (XMLStreamException e) { throw new SoapFault(new org.apache.cxf.common.i18n.Message( "SOAPHANDLERINTERCEPTOR_EXCEPTION", BUNDLE), e, message .getVersion().getSender()); }
After digging the code more, I found the SoapFault and it's parent Fault doesn't take the cause exception into consideration.
When the Fault reason send to the client, it just a Fault message without the cause. It's difficult for the user to trace the real cause of the exception. My suggestion is change the Fault class to add the cause exception message into the Fault message like this
public Fault(Message message, Throwable throwable) { super(message, throwable); this.message = message.toString; if (throwable != null) { this.message += "Caused by: " + throwable.getMessage(); } code = FAULT_CODE_SERVER; }
