Problem overview

Using xDM 3.3 with Weblogic 12.1.2, the response format is not valid as the namespace is defined twice with different formats: "xmlns=" and "xmlns:ns1=":

This issue is caused by SAAJ weblogic implementation.

Expected Results

<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<soap:Header/>
<soap:Body>
<ns1:getXXX_GoldenData_ListResponse xmlns:ns1="http://www.semarchy.com/xml/ws/1.0/data/MDM">
<return>
<XXX_GoldenData_Record>
<ClassName>XXX</ClassName>

Solution

As SAAJ is included in JDK, you can force the application to use it instead of weblogic implementation, by adding this system property to weblogic :

-Dorg.apache.cxf.binding.soap.messageFactoryClassName=com.sun.xml.internal.messaging.saaj.soap.ver1_1.SOAPMessageFactory1_1Impl
