SAP PI 7.0 Receiver SOAP Axis (Bad envelope tag: html)

[Former Member]

Hi

I got problem with SOAP Receiver Adapter. for certain data the soap adapter error and response with this status below :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?> 
- <!--  Inbound Message  --> 
- <SAP:Error xmlns:SAP="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Message/30" xmlns:SOAP="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" SOAP:mustUnderstand="1">
  <SAP:Category>XIAdapterFramework</SAP:Category> 
  <SAP:Code area="MESSAGE">GENERAL</SAP:Code> 
  <SAP:P1 /> 
  <SAP:P4 /> 
  <SAP:AdditionalText>com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.DeliveryException: ; nested exception is: org.xml.sax.SAXException: Bad envelope tag: html</SAP:AdditionalText> 
  <SAP:ApplicationFaultMessage namespace="" /> 
  <SAP:Stack /> 
  <SAP:Retry>M</SAP:Retry> 
  </SAP:Error>

I am using HTTP (Axis) because the authentication required is NTLM. Ths interface only error in certain time. not sure what is the root cause.

Please advise if you have any experience with this error message.

Thank You

Fernand

The response is not SOAP, but HTML.

This happens in an error situation, when for example the authentication is failing or the server is down.

Bad envelope tag: html

Can you compare the Errored message with a successful one? Is the message structure formed (sent to receiver) same for both the messages?
