[jboss-user] [JBoss Web Services] - Invalid byte 1 of 1-byte UTF-8 sequence

Scale It [http://community.jboss.org/people/meselfe] created the discussion "Invalid byte 1 of 1-byte UTF-8 sequence" To view the discussion, visit: http://community.jboss.org/message/580207#580207 -------------------------------------------------------------- I get an error "Invalid byte 1 of 1-byte UTF-8 sequence." when I deploy a pojo with jaxws webservice annotations on jbossws native. org.apache.xerces.xni.XNIException: Parser should stop: [domain:http://www.w3.org/TR/1998/REC-xml-19980210]::[key=InvalidByte]::Me... byte 1 of 1-byte UTF-8 sequence.           at org.jboss.ws.metadata.wsdl.xmlschema.JBossXSErrorHandler.fatalError(JBossXSErrorHandler.java:78)           at org.apache.xerces.impl.XMLErrorReporter.reportError(Unknown Source)           at org.apache.xerces.impl.XMLErrorReporter.reportError(Unknown Source)           at org.apache.xerces.impl.XMLDocumentFragmentScannerImpl$FragmentContentDispatcher.dispatch(Unknown Source)           at org.apache.xerces.impl.XMLDocumentFragmentScannerImpl.scanDocument(Unknown Source)           at org.apache.xerces.impl.xs.opti.SchemaParsingConfig.parse(Unknown Source)           at org.apache.xerces.impl.xs.opti.SchemaParsingConfig.parse(Unknown Source)           at org.apache.xerces.impl.xs.opti.SchemaDOMParser.parse(Unknown Source)           at org.apache.xerces.impl.xs.traversers.XSDHandler.getSchemaDocument(Unknown Source)           at org.apache.xerces.impl.xs.traversers.XSDHandler.resolveSchema(Unknown Source)           at org.apache.xerces.impl.xs.traversers.XSDHandler.constructTrees(Unknown Source)           at org.apache.xerces.impl.xs.traversers.XSDHandler.parseSchema(Unknown Source)           at org.apache.xerces.impl.xs.XMLSchemaLoader.loadSchema(Unknown Source)           at org.apache.xerces.impl.xs.XMLSchemaLoader.loadGrammar(Unknown Source)           at org.jboss.ws.tools.JavaToXSD.parseSchema(JavaToXSD.java:183)           at org.jboss.ws.tools.wsdl.WSDL11Reader.processTypes(WSDL11Reader.java:394)           at org.jboss.ws.tools.wsdl.WSDL11Reader.processTypes(WSDL11Reader.java:409)           at org.jboss.ws.tools.wsdl.WSDL11Reader.processDefinition(WSDL11Reader.java:175)           at org.jboss.ws.tools.wsdl.WSDLDefinitionsFactory.parse(WSDLDefinitionsFactory.java:128)           at org.jboss.ws.metadata.umdm.ServiceMetaData.getWsdlDefinitions(ServiceMetaData.java:295)           at org.jboss.ws.metadata.builder.jaxws.JAXWSWebServiceMetaDataBuilder.buildWebServiceMetaData(JAXWSWebServiceMetaDataBuilder.java:166)           at org.jboss.ws.metadata.builder.jaxws.JAXWSServerMetaDataBuilder.setupProviderOrWebService(JAXWSServerMetaDataBuilder.java:50)           at org.jboss.ws.metadata.builder.jaxws.JAXWSMetaDataBuilderJSE.buildMetaData(JAXWSMetaDataBuilderJSE.java:63)   The java methods exposed as @webmethods take objects as input that have been generated from XSD using JAXB "xjc". The original XSDs are encoded in utf-8 and use international characters. My guess is that while generating the WSDL jboss somehow rebuilds the original XSD types and tries to insert them in a piece of XML thats not utf-8? Maybe the WSDL itself? I noticed the WSDL that jbossws generates has no XML declaration <?xml version="" encoding=""...>! Is there some way to let jboss know it should use utf-8 all the way through? -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/580207#580207] Start a new discussion in JBoss Web Services at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
