Invalid Content-Type:text/html

[sh_sadrai]

This is the first time I want to call a web service with spring and tomcat.
StreamSource source = new StreamSource(new StringReader(content));
StringWriter resultSW = new StringWriter();
StreamResult result = new StreamResult(resultSW);
webServiceSender.sendSourceAndReceiveToResult(
webServiceUrl,
source,
result
);

but I get this exception:
Could not create message from InputStream: Invalid Content-Type:text/html. Is this an error message instead of a SOAP response?; nested exception is com.sun.xml.internal.messaging.saaj.SOAPExceptionI mpl: Invalid Content-Type:text/html

what is wrong?

This is indeed an error message. Could you please give some more details:

• The full stack trace
• The content of the message
• SOAP version you're using

You are probably receiving an html error page from the server (rather than a SOAP response). You might be using an incorrect url to access your web service. I'd suggest the following:

• If you are using a wsdl to access your web service, make sure that your <service> element is pointing to the right place. You should look for something similar to <soap:address location="http://something:8080"/> and make sure that location points to where the service is.
• Check the logs to see if there is an activity on the server when you invoke the service or if an exception is thrown
• Use SoapUI (or something similar) to invoke the service and see what's the response really like. You can use tcpmon as well to monitor the exchange between the client and the server.
