The trouble is that we are often writing services to be vended to clients
over which we have no control - and the client tool vendors don't seem to interpret
it as being required.

Ok, according to SOAP1.1 it looks like it is required. It would not be a bad
idea to put this into the Axis FAQ since it is one of the biggest gotchas
for any Axis newby. It took me a while anyway, to figure out how to get the
MS Soap Client to work with Axis due to this requirement.

Subject: SOAPAction HTTP header required.


I have a service which I've moved from Apache SOAP to Axis and am now
testing.

Apart from a couple of things, it's working quite well.

I have one instance where a particular client application can no longer
make calls to the service now that it's been placed under Axis, but
could when it was under Apache SOAP.

The client app, which is not under my control, does not send a
SOAPAction HTTP header, so Axis always returns a 'no SOAPAction
header!' fault to the client.

How can I get my service to consumer messages w/o SOAPAction HTTP
headers under Axis?
