If I understand correctly , after server receive this "soapFault" request, it still needs to invoke the method "soapFault(Fault fault)" in service imlementation class.  So far , CXF is not capable to do this.  It is because the CXF Intercetors to process soapFault is only designed to work in the client side.  So fix this one , there will be couple of another issues pop up. This could be a workaroud: modify the wsdl schema and wrap the soap fault element in another element: This will make CXF treat this soap request not a soap fault response and handle it correctly. Does this change need a lot of work in JBossTS and work for dispatching the fault message ? -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/549473#549473] Start a new discussion in JBoss Web Services CXF at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
