--------------------------------

             Summary: Soap 1.1 service returns an invalid soap fault for soap 
1.2 requests
                 Key: CXF-4794
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-4794
             Project: CXF
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Soap Binding
    Affects Versions: 2.7.2
            Reporter: Aki Yoshida
            Assignee: Aki Yoshida


The soap 1.1 endpoint (i.e., soap 1.2 binding not enabled) is supposed to 
returns a soap fault when a soap 1.2 message is received. The fault is 
correctly raised, however, the returned fault message is inconsistent and has 
the soap 1.2 fault containing the soap 1.1 fault content, as 

<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope";>
  <soap:Body>
    <soap:Fault>
      <faultcode 
xmlns:ns1="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/";>ns1:VersionMismatch</faultcode>
      <faultstring>A SOAP 1.2 message is not valid when sent to a SOAP 1.1 only 
endpoint.</faultstring>
    </soap:Fault>
  </soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

This will lead to problems at most soap clients (including CXF which gets an 
NPE), as the fault code is not found at the expected element.

We can fix this by returning either the soap 1.1 fault or the soap 1.2 fault. 
The client that sent the soap 1.2 request message obviously understands both 
soap 1.2 and 1.1, it is not clear whether the service must return the soap 1.1 
message or may return the message of the same version as the request message, 
in this case, the soap 1.2 message.
