When our users mistakenly send non-SOAP XML to our server embedding CXF, they get this unhelpful error: {noformat} No namespace on "{0}" element. {noformat} Where \{0\} is the root element. The following would be better and give us less support headaches: {noformat} No namespace on "{0}" element. You must send a SOAP request. {noformat} Or a message to the effect that a SOAP request is expected instead of a low-level failure. The message NO_NAMESPACE is defined in {{rt\bindings\soap\src\main\java\org\apache\cxf\binding\soap\interceptor\Messages.properties}} -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
