AlumniI think I have a similar problem but have tried all other options including above but still no luck.
I created an XML using groovy and passed that request xml to the SOAPUI Request Tab.
I am actually trying to send this xml to a JMS queue and have configured the HermesJMS to connect to queues.
But I hit the submit button to send the request to the queue, my application log throws an error below :
<Number>0x00030001</Number>
<Text>illegal character 'R' at offset 0 of dpmq://dpmq_Eai/fsh_MQ_<MyServiceName>?RequestQueue=<QueueName></Text>
</RecoverableException>
When I hit CTRL+S to save the above xml to my local and then post this xml file using RFHUTILC< my application does not throw any error.
Not sure what is different between the Request tab sending it and the file being sent directly tot he queue.
You may want to start a new thread for your problem. You replied to one that is over 4 years old.
Try selecting the Test Step, then look for the Test Request Property, see if there's any that says, "Encoding". I think you can select different encoding options there like "UTF-8", "iso-8859-1" or manually write the correct format.
Thank you for suggesting, but that didn't help.
Does SOAPUI add any headers automatically ?
I posted the message to a test queue 1 and read the same again from test queue 2, I don't see any special characters.
