It have been a while, but I just found out that I solved the issue by disabling Mtom: Then it works... ;).... Any idea why this solved the issue ? (I am trying CXF 3.1.4 currently). And how is it possible to solve this with mtom enabled ?
The issue was: The Webservice response contained the MIME type, such that the xml parser complaints: --------- --uuid:cacb0df1-911c-4440-bdf6-e7b6bfcaa5e1 Content-Type: text/xml; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary Content-ID: <root.mess...@cxf.apache.org> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/.... ..... --------- =========Exception stacktrace (see details in other post): ------ Caused by: com.ctc.wstx.exc.WstxUnexpectedCharException: Unexpected character '-' (code 45) in prolog; expected '<' at [row,col {unknown-source}]: [3,1] com.ctc.wstx.sr.StreamScanner.throwUnexpectedChar(StreamScanner.java:64 7) ~[woodstox-core-asl-4.4.0.jar:4.4.0] ------ -- View this message in context: http://cxf.547215.n5.nabble.com/Cont-upgrading-cxf-client-to-3-0-1-tp5748543p5763995.html Sent from the cxf-user mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
