Pega Soap Configuration - Request Error- 'Couldn't Create OMElement from String Value'
After using the SOAP wizard using an external services WSDL file, i am receiving an error while I am attempting to pass parameters to the service. My Soap is style 'Document/Literal', my request is using a Data type of 'XML Literal' and a Map from of 'XML Stream'. I believe the issue is building the XML to pass into the SOAP request. The Error occurs during the 'InvokeAxis2' activity, step 13. Are there any configuration issues that I should investigate more to diagnose this error. I suspect there might be an XML conversion configuration on the server.
Error message: "Couldn't Create OMElement from String Value"
Version: Pega 8.1
I've attached a document on how to see the request xml being sent, as well as how to set the debug level on InvokeAxis2 activity logger. The logger may turn up something new, but even if it doesn't, it will be good to have the log data handy should you need to raise an SR after all.
Accepted Solution
Hi,
Perform the following local-change:
Comment out the below 3 lines in step 13 of InvokeAxis2 activity:
// com.ctc.wstx.stax.WstxInputFactory wInputFactory = (com.ctc.wstx.stax.WstxInputFactory)inputFactory;
// wInputFactory.getConfig().setConfigFlag(1);
//javax.xml.stream.XMLStreamReader streamReader = wInputFactory.createXMLStreamReader(stringReader);
and add the below line
javax.xml.stream.XMLStreamReader streamReader = inputFactory.createXMLStreamReader(stringReader);
Thank You,
The following posts look like they could be helpful leads. Something perhaps in the namespace or a problematic element getting passed in the request. The last link includes some additional debugging steps.
