[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBREM-543) fix servlet invoker error handling to be more like that of the http invoker

Tom  Elrod commented on JBREM-543:
----------------------------------

The response object type in this case is indeed java.lang.String.  I have update the test case to print it out (See ServletInvokerTestClient or SSLServletInvokerTestClient).  The output I get from JBossAS is:

<html><head><title>Apache Tomcat/5.5.17 - Error report</title><style></style> </head><body><h1>HTTP Status 500 - Error occurred processing invocation request. </h1><HR size="1" noshade="noshade"><p><b>type</b> Status report</p><p><b>message</b> <u>Error occurred processing invocation request. </u></p><p><b>description</b> <u>The server encountered an internal error (Error occurred processing invocation request. ) that prevented it from fulfilling this request.</u></p><HR size="1" noshade="noshade"><h3>Apache Tomcat/5.5.17</h3></body></html>

I agree that would be best for the http/servlet client invoker to thrown an exception as is done with other transports, but was changed a while back to this format per request from the web services team.  I am re-opening this discussion with them (http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3958247#3958247).

> Need to change the servlet invoker so on client side will not throw an exception out of the Client's invoke() method call, but just return the error (as text in most cases) and have the response code indicate the error status code (e.g. 500).  Although this is not exactly how the http invoker handles exceptions from the http server invoker, is only way to reliably get errors from web containers (like Tomcat).
