session management - soap header error

[Flo Hum <fl...@gmail.com>]

Sorry if this ends up actually being a cross-post, I initially sent to
axis-dev but realized that's the wrong forum - and I don't think it
went through anyway.

First I'm a total noob to all of this architecture, so I apologize for
my ignorance up front. Apache2, Tomcat 5.0, Axis2 v1.3, SOAP, web
communication protocols in general (even the Jbuilder IDE I have to
use) is new for me, so it's been a struggle every step of the way.
I've been able to create a web service and test with client code okay.
But when I tried to introduce the session management options, my test
client code fails. I was following an article I found
http://www.developer.com/java/web/print.php/3620661 as my guide.
Hopefully you can help, I must be missing something.

Here are the steps I've done to try to add the session management:

**  Made change in services.xml to include soapsession. (tried
transportsession as well - but with the same resulting error)
<service name="foo" scope="soapsession"> </service>

**  included method init(), destroy() and a method for getting
ServiceContext in service class.

**  in the test Client code I added
options.setManageSession(true);
serviceClient.engageModule("addressing");
for the org.apache.axis2.client.Options  and
for the org.apache.axis2.rpc.client.RPCServiceClient

**  when i run the test client I get
org.apache.axis2.AxisFault: The server failed to process the
WS-Addressing header: wsa:Action [Reason]: A header representing a
Message Addressing Property is not valid and the message cannot be
processed

**  so it seems as though the client code is not generating a proper
message.  I really don't know much about how the header should look
though, and how to alter it anyway since it is being generated for me.


**  here is the soap header I can view using TCP/IP monitor

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"?>
<soapenv:Envelope
   xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
   xmlns:wsa="http://www.w3.org/2005/08/addressing">
   <soapenv:Header>
       <wsa:To>http://localhost:9081/axis2/services/MyService</wsa:To>
       <wsa:MessageID>urn:uuid:D692F6BBD04218BBF81192458486207</wsa:MessageID>
       <wsa:Action>urn:anonOutInOpResponse</wsa:Action>
   </soapenv:Header>
   <soapenv:Body>
       <doLogin xmlns="http://polygon.dfo.gc.ca"> <arg0
xmlns="">testUsername</arg0>
       <arg1 xmlns="">testPassword</arg1>
       </doLogin>
   </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>


**  here is the client code used:

   serviceClient = new RPCServiceClient();
   serviceClient.engageModule("addressing");
   Options options = serviceClient.getOptions();
   options.setManageSession(true);//for session management
   EndpointReference targetEPR = new
EndpointReference("http://localhost:9081/axis2/services/MyService");
   options.setTo(targetEPR);
   QName opLogin = new QName("http://polygon.dfo.gc.ca", "doLogin");
   String strUsername = "testUsername";
   String strPswd = "testPassword";
   Object[] opLoginArgs = new Object[] { strUsername, strPswd };
   Class[] returnTypes = new Class[] { String.class };
   Object[] response =
serviceClient.invokeBlocking(opLogin,opLoginArgs, returnTypes);
   Object result = (Object)response[0];
   String str = result.toString();
   System.out.println("runTestUpdate Login: " + str);
   // just for some info
   MessageContext msgCtx = MessageContext.getCurrentMessageContext();
   if(msgCtx != null){
   System.out.println("msgCtx.getServiceGroupContextId() :  " +
       msgCtx.getServiceGroupContextId());
   }

My goal was just to be able to have my service allow the user to login
once, validate them, store their user_id, and then they could make
subsequent calls to the service, with the service already aware of
that user_id an that they are valid.
If I'm totally off track please let me know.

thanks so much
