Peter Schilling [http://community.jboss.org/people/pschor] created the discussion "Invoking a web service from JBoss AS as a client" To view the discussion, visit: http://community.jboss.org/message/564010#564010 -------------------------------------------------------------- I've been trying to figure this out for several days, any help will be appreciated. I'm trying to invoke a web service from a java class deployed in JBoss 5.1.0.GA running on JDK1.6.0. I get the exception below. The same method called from a plain Java object and invoked from a command line (using JDK's WS jars instead of JBoss') works perfectly. I copied the jboss-native-* classes to the endorsed directory (initally to resolve the SetProperty problem), but is there anything else that needs to be considered to invoke a service from JBoss as a client? Three things that are different from the case when the method is invoked successfully from the command line: ** In the request STDOUT the XML version header was removed (probably by SaveMessage). ** In the request STDOUT quotes were converted to apostrophes. ** Even thought the content type is set as text/xml, the error says content type is text/html Thanks for your help Peter The method and the output/error: try {             // Create the SOAP connection             SOAPConnectionFactory soapConnFactory = SOAPConnectionFactory.newInstance();             SOAPConnection connection = soapConnFactory.createConnection();              String soapText =                   "<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>" +                 "<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV=\" http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/ http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/\"" +                   " SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle=\" http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/ http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/\">" +                   "<SOAP-ENV:Header/>" +                  "<SOAP-ENV:Body>" +                  "<Discover xmlns=\"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-analysis\">" +                  "<RequestType>DISCOVER_DATASOURCES</RequestType>" +                  "<Restrictions><RestrictionList/></Restrictions>"  +                  "<Properties><PropertyList><Format>Tabular</Format></PropertyList></Properties>"  +                  "</Discover>"  +                  "</SOAP-ENV:Body>" +                  "</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>";
