Enconding error on webservice output witho soapui 3.01

Hello everybody.
This is my first post in this forum.
I'm recently updated soapui from version 2.x to the newer 3.01.
Unfortunately I have now e very big problem when I test some web services.

This is the output in raw mode:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: Sun-ONE-Web-Server/6.1
Date: Thu, 08 Oct 2009 13:06:33 GMT
Content-length: 1768
Content-type: text/xml;charset=UTF-8
_charset: UTF-8
Cache-control: no-cache, must-revalidate, max-age=0
Pragma: no-cache
Content-encoding: deflate
Transfer-encoding: Chunked

”Ymsã& þ+™Ìôc‚íäÒ$ÃéÎ–ížæ¬Ø#;nïS‡Ø\B+

I've cut the string with the incomprehensible characters.

Could you help me?

Thank you in advance.

    I had a similar problem and just found that it was due to having IISExpress installed which compresses the outbound data. Your header also indicates your data is deflated. For my case, I just configured IISExpress to exclude specific webservice the site I was using and it was OK.

    go to HTTP Settings in the Preferences dialog (File >Preferences > HTTP Settings tab) and turn off "Accept compressed responses from host".

    This was posted by Dunderklumpen on another post and it worked for me.

    Hope this helps someone else out

    I have unchecked that, but still the issue persist. Encoding from external file is being changed when set to properties step. For that reason assertion is failing.
