Is something blocking or is something wrong in our app.
Hello Guys!Right now I'm in a project were we uppgrading a java-ee-app from jboss 4 to jboss 5.1.2.
This app is making a webservice call to an other server in a IIS.
The infrastructure looks something like
Jboss -> black_box_of_firewalls -> Microsoft IIS.
Right now the IIS is down, and that is ok for now.
How ever my intention is that the old-app and the new-app should work in the same way.
But we get different response for the same call.
I have asked the firewall-guys to sniff the traffic after the firewall.
From the old-app we caught this call and response:
POST /xxx/ws_xxx.asmx HTTP/1.1
SOAPAction: "http://www.xxx.xx/xxx/aQuestion"
Content-Type: text/xml; charset=UTF-8

To me I can see the soap-envelop we sent and that the IIS responded.
But from the new-app we caught this call and response:

<h1>Bad Request</h1>
As you can se there seems to be no soap-envelop in the request, and there are some different other header like: Transfer-Encoding: chunked, and remotingContentType.
In the response I see nothing about IIS either. So even if my firewall-guys say that I'm wrong I do have some doubt's that the response in fact came from the IIS.
What do you think guys, could this be because of:
1) Bug in new-app
2) Misstake in sniffing, the sniffer missed the envelop in some strange way
3) Something in firewall is removing the sending saop-envelope
4) The response is from somtehing else, perhaps inour balck box of fire walls.
...or something else?
All guesses and suggestions are most welcome.
Best regagards
Fredrik
