WebLogic 9.2 generate message with invalid namespace

[ivanchung]

Hello:
I've installed the sprint-ws-1.03 and successfully run the airline sample using jetty.
But I got following error in client side when running the sample in webloigc 9.2 server

     
Exception in thread "main" org.springframework.ws.soap.saaj.SaajSoap
EnvelopeException: Could not access envelope: Unable to create envelope from given source: ; nested exception is com.sun.xml.messaging.saaj.SOAPExceptionImpl: Unable to create envelope from given source:
...

Caused by: org.w3c.dom.DOMException: NAMESPACE_ERR: 
An attempt is made to create or change an object in a way 
which is incorrect with regard to namespaces.

I found out that the weblogic generate a response with invalid namespace

Is there any way to resolve it?

Thanks in advnace.

We had the same error message, and it was related to the Xalan version on classpath. 2.6.0 did not work, but 2.7.0 worked for us. Xalan got added to classpath transitively from Xom via Jaxen, so by just removing the Jaxen dependency, we got the correct version of Xalan. I don't know why we had Jaxen as a dependency originally, but removing it caused no side effects (so far)


May be a long shot, but well worth the try. :-)

Paul

Hi ,
We have our webservice working fine on jdk 1.5 build 4 weblogic 9.2 . When we switch to jdk 1.5 build 10 started to get NAMESPACE_ERR exception. Appreciate any
pointers on resolving this

I tried to use xlanaj 2.7.0 I still get the same exception. Appreciate any pointers to resolving this

There Can be TWO issues here :

1.

move xalan.jar at a higher priority than xerces.jar (Also moved the saaj-impl.jar 1st priority) in order to solve the NAMESPACE_ERR

2.

Weblogic has sometimes got a caching issue. If your schemas had changed and you redeployed your service. Please remove cache, undeploy the war and redeploy the war.

Hope, this is of some help.

Thanks,
Milan

Thanks. But I would like to know the root cuase of the error. I have some flexibility in changing class path order in development environment but not in higher environments. Can you please point me to where I can find on building the spring webservice source code. I see there is a patch for jira SWS-275 which has a patch for NAMESPACE_ERR. I dont know if its the same issue that I am getting but would like to see if that patch fixes it

[harshi]

I have tried using JDK1.5-15 it solved the problem, I don't have any xalan in my class path. I had this issue with Java1.5_11.

Hi,
If I use xalanj 2.7 and the patch provided in http://jira.springframework.org/secu.../SWS-275.patch
the error gets resolved. It would be interesting to know the root cuase
