Hi,

I'm working with a SOAP client which uses non-standard headers and a
non-standard doc...

It uses the "SOAPAction" header to supply an authentication key (I've
got around the problem of IIS rejecting this)

The document seems reasonably valid but, I think the "." is confusing
IIS


Here's an example of an incoming SOAP request (the format cannot be
changed):

==== HEADERS ====
POST / HTTP/1.0
Host: #.#.#.#:#
User-agent: SOAP.py hwSOAP 2.0.2 (actzero.com)
Content-type: text/xml; charset="UTF-8"
Content-length: 703
SOAPAction: "authcode-1234567890"

==== DOCUMENT ====
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"
xmlnssd="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema"
xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
xmlnssi="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:SOAP-ENC="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">
<SOAP-ENV:Body>
<MailServer.CheckSpool>
<v1 xsi:type="xsd:string">mail.theserver.com</v1>
<v2 xsi:type="xsd:string">testuser</v2>
<v3 xsi:type="xsd:string">testpass</v3>
<v5 xsi:type="xsd:int">0</v5>
</MailServer.CheckSpool>
</SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
************************************************** **********************

================================================== ==============

Here's my code:

<%@ WebService Language="C#" Class="testbed" %>

using System;
using System.Web.Services;
using System.Web.Services.Protocols;
using System.Web.Services.Description;
using System.Xml.Serialization;


[SoapDocumentService(RoutingStyle=SoapServiceRoutin gStyle.RequestElement)]


[WebService(Namespace="urn:")]
public class testbed
{
[WebMethod]
[SoapDocumentMethod(RequestElementName="MailServer. CheckSpool")]

public int CheckSpool(string Server, string Username, string
Password)
{
return 1;
}

}



And here's the SOAP.Fault returned:

<Fault soap:Client: The request element <MailServer.CheckSpool
xmlns=''> was not recognized.>


Any ideas on how to resolve this would be appreciated...

Thanks
