Some things I see from Apple's source. 1. The 411 fault comes from DirectAction#defaultAction. This means your Apache SOAP client is not using the correct URL. It must use http://server[:port]/cgi-bin/WebObjects/SOAPServer.woa/wa/OrderInterface (SOAPTransport.java).
2. The WO SOAP server determines the service to invoke from that URL, so it does not make any difference what your client specifies as the target URI. 3. The namespace used for the method and parameters sent by the client (SOAPBuilder.java) is http://wwdc-demo.apple.com/soap/request/, but the server (Main.java) ignores this. The method is named Order. The parameters are named OrderItems, CustomerID and BillMethod. 4. The response (Main.wod, Main.html) has a SOAP Header with an element that has a mustUnderstand="1" attribute, which *should* be a problem, but maybe Apache SOAP ignores this. The SOAP Body has an OrderResponse element in the namespace http://vendor.demo/demo/response, which itself contains an element named ConfirmationNumber. This does not have an xsi:type attribute, so you will need to use the Apache SOAP mapping workaround for this. The bottom line is that it should be possible to write an Apache SOAP client that will work with this server, but I personally would not recommend using the server sample as a template for implementing SOAP services, since so much is hard-coded and the SOAP implementation is lacking. IMHO, you would be better off using Apache SOAP in the J2EE application server that is part of WO 5.x.
