Hi Jim,

I am not sure what is different in my code that makes request.getScheme() fail with an NPE while your code works ok but I think it is just luck.

I traced execution through a test case and it appears that the incoming message relates to a valid request. Because this is a one way message there is a handover of control in ContextUtils at line 416

I checked the request by stopping at 416 and looking up the stack to find the request. The HttpServletRequest object is actually a facade object which indirects to an underlying catalina connector request. It had a name like "Current Servlet stack for thread http-127.0.0.1-8080-1 [S] ActivationService [org.jboss.wsf.stack.cxf.CXFServletExt]". request.getScheme() worked on this object without a NPE.

I picked control up again in the debugger at 421 but, of course, there was no servlet method up the stack where I coudl locate the request. So, I proceeded to step through the code until the ServiceInvokerInterceptor was called. In AbstractInvoker.invoke() the web service context is set up

At line 101 I evaluated ctx.get("HTTP.REQUEST") and got another facade hiding a catalina connector request with name "Current Servlet stack for thread default-workqueue-2". However all the fields of this catalina connector request appear to be uninitialised and getScheme() returns null. So, this looks to me like the request is coming out of a thread local and it is pot luck whether the object behind the facade has been initialised or not. IN your tests it may be that a previous call has set values in this object.

regards,
