Getting response from a Web Service

Former Member — Thu, 06 Aug 2009 22:14:24 GMT

Hello, everyone,

I want MII to show the response from a Web Service it is calling through the Web Service action.

But when this Web Service return an error (as a Soap Fault response), MII simply does not show the response. It show it truncated, such as

"<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<ReceiveMessageFromMESResponse xmlns="http://tempuri.org/"/>"

It prevents me from showing the error message to the user.

What can I do to have MII show me the complete response received from the called Web Servce?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Eduardo Gustini Simões,

The message you are getting is SOAP error message saying there was some error in the web service call.

To get detailed error message, the web service should be capable to return a detailed text message as return paraeters.

Hi, SB!

Yes, this would solve the problem, but it would require changes on already-implemented, working external Web Services, which should be avoided by all means.

SOAP Fault responses are part of the SOAP protocol. I expected MII to understand it.

Thanks a lot for your answer!
