Here’s the error I was getting:

javax.xml.ws.soap.SOAPFaultException: The message with Action ” cannot be processed at the receiver, due to a ContractFilter mismatch at the EndpointDispatcher. This may be because of either a contract mismatch (mismatched Actions between sender and receiver) or a binding/security mismatch between the sender and the receiver. Check that sender and receiver have the same contract and the same binding (including security requirements, e.g. Message, Transport, None).

And here’s the easy, one-line solution:

For the most part, you probably don’t even need an interceptor for this. Just
do something like:

((BindingProvider)proxy).getRequestContext().put(
BindingProvider.SOAPACTION_URI_PROPERTY,
“my.soap.action”);

before calling the method. That should do it.

Thanks, Daniel Kulp.

Find me, Google: Empty SOAPAction header
