If your application is respecting the extensibility of the SOAP fault codes, then it means that your server received a SOAP message but was unable to parse it.
The invalid XML character (Unicode: 0x1c) was found in the element content of the document
message should be a good indicator of what's wrong.
Your server is throwing an exception, which Axis sends to the client as a SOAP Fault. The faultCode indicates a Server error. Note that the Server.userException
error code is not a standard value, it just is a more specific type of server fault code.
The default SOAP faultcode values are defined in an extensible manner that allows for new SOAP faultcode values to be defined. The mechanism uses a dot (.) to define more specific types of errors. It indicates that what is to the left of the dot is a more generic fault code value than the value to the right. See the specs here.
So I guess that Server.userException
is a pertinent way of saying that the exception occured at the server but is not something strictly related to the server but related to what the client sent (.userException
). At least that is what I think the authors had in mind. This is for you to discover :D.
