Hey psuresh547,That "premature end of line" error response leads me to believe your xml payload is malformed xml (even though it looks fine...i suspect the error could be a bit of a red herring). Have you tried using an xml parser to check its wellformed xml?If you do a search youll see this issue occurs for a variety of reasons.Have a look at this stackoverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10022796/why-am-i-getting-this-error-premature-end-of-fileTaRich

thanks for the reply. I have checked the xml format and the same format is working fine in other application servers. From Tomcat or TomEE when i am trying test SOAP webservices using SOAP UI, i am facing this issue.
