WS-RX: Anonymous client that offers a sequenceId should not be rejected (sequenceId should be disregarded instead) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: JBWS-2430 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBWS-2430 Project: JBoss Web Services Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: ws-reliable Affects Versions: jbossws-native-3.0.4 Environment: JBoss 4.2.2.GA; WS-RX 2007/08 Reporter: Jean-Christophe Durand Assignee: Richard Opalka Fix For: jbossws-native-3.0.6 Hi, I had a big fight when I tried to get JBossWS work with WSF/PHP (using WS-RX). Everything was working fine when using the Java client but for no evident reason, it was failing when I used WSF as client. After hours and hours of investigation, I figured out that it was at conversation initiation that the process was failing. The reason is that the client is registering under the "http://www.w3.org/2005/08/addressing/anonymous" address and is proposing a sequence Id under the CreateSequence node: <wsrm:CreateSequence> <wsrm:AcksTo> <wsa:Address xmlns:wsa='http://www.w3.org/2005/08/addressing'>http://www.w3... </wsrm:AcksTo> <wsrm:Offer> <wsrm:Identifier xmlns:wsrm='http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-rx/wsrm/200702'>5754... <wsrm:Endpoint xmlns:wsrm='http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-rx/wsrm/200702'/> </wsrm:Offer> </wsrm:CreateSequence> From what I read in Oasis specification, a server should not accept the proposed identifier of an anonymous client but I do not see that it MUST reject any client that provides such a combination. What I would suggest is that rather than rejecting the conversation, the server should only disregard the Offer/Identifier value and behave as if no sequence id had been provided. I tried to find out where to do this in JBossWS with no luck.
