org.apache.cxf.configuration.spring.JAXBBeanFactory cannot handle elements with namespace prefixes --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: CXF-2749 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-2749 Project: CXF Issue Type: Bug Components: Configuration, Transports Affects Versions: 2.2.6 Environment: Only when used with Sun StAX implementation 1.4.2; does not seem to happen with Woodstox Reporter: Jonathan Whitall Priority: Minor I first noticed this when attempting to define the http:conduit element in a Spring config file: <beans:beans xmlns:http="http://cxf.apache.org/transports/http/configuration" xmlns:beans="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation=" http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd http://cxf.apache.org/transports/http/configuration http://cxf.apache.org/schemas/configuration/http-conf.xsd "> <http:conduit name="*.http-conduit"> <http:client ConnectionTimeout="30000" ReceiveTimeout="120000" /> </http:conduit> </beans:beans> It always fails with the following exception: Caused by: javax.xml.bind.UnmarshalException - with linked exception: [javax.xml.stream.XMLStreamException: ParseError at [row,col]:[1,198] Message: http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-xml-names-19990114#ElementPrefixUnbound?http&http:client] at com.sun.xml.bind.v2.runtime.unmarshaller.UnmarshallerImpl.handleStreamException(UnmarshallerImpl.java:426) at com.sun.xml.bind.v2.runtime.unmarshaller.UnmarshallerImpl.unmarshal0(UnmarshallerImpl.java:362) at com.sun.xml.bind.v2.runtime.unmarshaller.UnmarshallerImpl.unmarshal(UnmarshallerImpl.java:339) at org.apache.cxf.configuration.spring.JAXBBeanFactory.createJAXBBean(JAXBBeanFactory.java:51) ... 124 more Caused by: javax.xml.stream.XMLStreamException: ParseError at [row,col]:[1,198] Message: http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-xml-names-19990114#ElementPrefixUnbound?http&http:client at com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.impl.XMLStreamReaderImpl.next(XMLStreamReaderImpl.java:593) at com.sun.xml.bind.v2.runtime.unmarshaller.StAXStreamConnector.bridge(StAXStreamConnector.java:160) at com.sun.xml.bind.v2.runtime.unmarshaller.UnmarshallerImpl.unmarshal0(UnmarshallerImpl.java:360) ... 126 more Looking at the source code, it appears that CXF is sending the body contents of http:conduit verbatim to JAXBBeanFactory for parsing into a JAXB object. Apparently, Woodstox doesn't care if there is an unregistered namespace prefix, but the Sun StAX implementation does and throws the exception. My current workaround is to define the http:conduit element in a separate XML file and use it as the default namespace like this: <beans:beans xmlns="http://cxf.apache.org/transports/http/configuration" xmlns:beans="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation=" http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd http://cxf.apache.org/transports/http/configuration http://cxf.apache.org/schemas/configuration/http-conf.xsd "> <conduit name="*.http-conduit"> <client ConnectionTimeout="30000" ReceiveTimeout="120000" /> </conduit> </beans:beans> -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
