Server is throwing exception with appropriate message but client is not to able to catch that exception. This is happening only for cxf 2.7.x (i.e not able to create an appropriate WebApplicationException) but when I run with 2.6.0 it works fine(i.e CXF 2.6's ServerWebApplicationException is thrown).
