I am trying to send a request to http://www.webservicex.com/globalweather.asmx

I tried running this SOAP Webservice Call but getting the error below. Where can I edit the Context type

import javax.xml.soap.MessageFactory;
import javax.xml.soap.SOAPBody;

import javax.xml.soap.SOAPConnectionFactory;

import javax.xml.soap.SOAPPart;
import javax.xml.transform.Source;
import javax.xml.transform.Transformer;
import javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory;
import javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamResult;


public class Main2
{

        private static SOAPMessage createSOAPRequest() throws Exception
        {
                MessageFactory messageFactory = MessageFactory.newInstance();
                SOAPMessage soapMessage = messageFactory.createMessage();
                SOAPPart soapPart = soapMessage.getSOAPPart();


                // SOAP Envelope
                SOAPEnvelope envelope = soapPart.getEnvelope();
                envelope.addNamespaceDeclaration("web", "http://www.webserviceX.NET");

                // SOAP Body
                SOAPBody soapBody = envelope.getBody();
                SOAPElement soapBodyElem = soapBody.addChildElement("GetCitiesByCountry", "web");
                SOAPElement soapBodyElem1 = soapBodyElem.addChildElement("CountryName", "web");
                soapBodyElem1.addTextNode("Brazil");

                soapMessage.saveChanges();

                // Check the input
                System.out.println("Request SOAP Message = ");
                soapMessage.writeTo(System.out);
                System.out.println();
                return soapMessage;
        }

        /**
         * Method used to print the SOAP Response
         */
        private static void printSOAPResponse(SOAPMessage soapResponse) throws Exception
        {
                TransformerFactory transformerFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
                Transformer transformer = transformerFactory.newTransformer();
                Source sourceContent = soapResponse.getSOAPPart().getContent();
                System.out.println("\nResponse SOAP Message = ");
                StreamResult result = new StreamResult(System.out);
                transformer.transform(sourceContent, result);
        }

        /**
         * Starting point for the SAAJ - SOAP Client Testing
         */
        public static void main(String args[])
        {
                try
                {
                        SOAPConnectionFactory soapConnectionFactory = SOAPConnectionFactory.newInstance();
                        SOAPConnection soapConnection = soapConnectionFactory.createConnection();

                        String url = "http://www.dneonline.com/calculator.asmx?WSDL";
                        SOAPMessage soapResponse = soapConnection.call(createSOAPRequest(), url);

                        soapConnection.close();
                }
                catch (Exception e)
                {
                        System.err.println("Error occurred while sending SOAP Request to Server");
                        e.printStackTrace();
                }
        }
}

Here is the output in the Console:

Request SOAP Message =

What needs to be added? Or Edited?

UPDATE

I inserted

        soapBodyElem1.addTextNode("Brazil");

        MimeHeaders headers = soapMessage.getMimeHeaders();
        headers.addHeader("Content-Type", "application/html");


        soapMessage.saveChanges();

but I got error

I fixed issues in your code here is how you should call. I tested and its working.

    import javax.xml.soap.MessageFactory;
     import javax.xml.soap.MimeHeaders;
     import javax.xml.soap.SOAPBody;
     import javax.xml.soap.SOAPConnection;
     import javax.xml.soap.SOAPConnectionFactory;
     import javax.xml.soap.SOAPElement;
     import javax.xml.soap.SOAPEnvelope;
     import javax.xml.soap.SOAPMessage;
     import javax.xml.soap.SOAPPart;
     import javax.xml.transform.Source;
     import javax.xml.transform.Transformer;
     import javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory;
     import javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamResult;

    public class Main2 {

      private static SOAPMessage createSOAPRequest() throws Exception {
        MessageFactory messageFactory = MessageFactory.newInstance();
        SOAPMessage soapMessage = messageFactory.createMessage();

        SOAPPart soapPart = soapMessage.getSOAPPart();

        // SOAP Envelope
        SOAPEnvelope envelope = soapPart.getEnvelope();

        envelope.addNamespaceDeclaration("web", "http://www.webserviceX.NET");

        // SOAP Body
        SOAPBody soapBody = envelope.getBody();
        SOAPElement soapBodyElem = soapBody.addChildElement("GetCitiesByCountry", "web");
        SOAPElement soapBodyElem1 = soapBodyElem.addChildElement("CountryName", "web");
        soapBodyElem1.addTextNode("Brazil");
        MimeHeaders header = soapMessage.getMimeHeaders();
        header.setHeader("SOAPAction", "http://www.webserviceX.NET/GetCitiesByCountry");

        soapMessage.saveChanges();

        // Check the input
        System.out.println("Request SOAP Message = ");
        soapMessage.writeTo(System.out);

        return soapMessage;
    }

    /**

    private static void printSOAPResponse(SOAPMessage soapResponse) throws Exception {
        TransformerFactory transformerFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
        Transformer transformer = transformerFactory.newTransformer();
        Source sourceContent = soapResponse.getSOAPPart().getContent();
        System.out.println("\nResponse SOAP Message = ");
        StreamResult result = new StreamResult(System.out);
        transformer.transform(sourceContent, result);
    }

    /**
     * Starting point for the SAAJ - SOAP Client Testing

        try {

            SOAPConnection soapConnection = soapConnectionFactory.createConnection();

            String url = "http://www.webservicex.com/globalweather.asmx";

            SOAPMessage soapResponse = soapConnection.call(createSOAPRequest(), url);

            printSOAPResponse(soapResponse);

            soapConnection.close();
        } catch (Exception e) {
