java - Tracing XML request/responses with JAX-WS when error occurs

Question

I want to log raw soap post requests if there are any errors , I am using JAX-WS. Any help will be appreciated.

Is there an easy way (aka: not using a proxy) to get access to the raw request/response XML for a webservice published with JAX-WS reference implementation (the one included in JDK 1.5 and better) only when exception occurs in response? I want to log raw SOAP reuest so that I can test it thorugh any webservice client at a later stage

Answer 1

Use

com.sun.xml.internal.ws.transport.http.client.HttpTransportPipe.dump=true

and

com.sun.xml.internal.ws.transport.http.HttpAdapter.dump=true

instead (note the "internal" in the package name), this did the trick for me.
