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

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.

Answer 2

If you working with Jboss 6.1 and you want to print the logs for the JAX-WS generated classes request to the SOAP web service, open the file /home/oracle/jboss-eap-6.1/bin/standalone.sh note: please go where you have installed jboss

You will find something like this

JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,address=$DEBUG_PORT,server=y,suspend=n"

Change it to the one shown below

JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Dcom.sun.xml.ws.transport.http.client.HttpTransportPipe.dump=true -agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,address=$DEBUG_PORT,server=y,suspend=n"

Also make sure you enable debug

DEBUG_MODE=true
