.Net inserting extra forward slash

0 down vote favorite


I am using SoapUI to test a .Net Web Service that will be consumed by a Java client application.

When I hook up my Web Service to SoapUI but updating the WSDL location and call one of the preset testing scripts, the Web Service fails with the following code

<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"   xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
   <soap:Body>
      <soap:Fault>
         <faultcode>soap:Client</faultcode>
         <faultstring>System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: Server did not recognize the value of HTTP Header SOAPAction: urn:mycode:us:gu:das:supplierengagement:v02:SupplierEngagement:/AppointSupplier.
   at System.Web.Services.Protocols.Soap11ServerProtocolHelper.RouteRequest()
   at System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapServerProtocol.RouteRequest(SoapServerMessage message)
   at System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapServerProtocol.Initialize()
   at System.Web.Services.Protocols.ServerProtocolFactory.Create(Type type, HttpContext context, HttpRequest request, HttpResponse response, Boolean&amp; abortProcessing)    
         </faultstring>
         <detail/>
      </soap:Fault>    
   </soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

As you can see from the above error, the problem is with the SOAPAction parameter having an extra forward slash.

I am using the following attribute on the class:

<WebService(Namespace:= "urn:mycode:us:gu:das:supplierengagement:v02:SupplierEngagement:AppointSupplier")>

and the following attribute on the method call:

<WebMethod(MessageName:="appointSupplierRq")>

From these, .Net is adding the forward slash.

It must be possible to remove this.

Can any one please inform me on how to undertake this?
