Hi All,

I just updated to 5.7.0 and have now an issue. After sending a Soap request the response is always shown in the Raw-Register. Before the update it was by default the XML-Register.

This is very confusing for me. Is there a possibility to define the XML-Register as default after sending a soap request? I didn’t found anything in the docu or net…

Thanks  
Ralph

Same. been using soapui for years on this machine. first upgrade that caused this behavior.

Switching to XML doesn’t persist; each execution returns RAW.

Hi Anthesum ,

the issue is reported on GitHub: [https://github.com/SmartBear/soapui/issues/721](https://github.com/SmartBear/soapui/issues/721)

Apparently there’s an issue in Content-Type handling.

If the Content-Type contains:

- only “ **text/xml** ”, it shows the response in **XML tab**
- if it contains also the encoding information, e.g. **text/xml;charset=UTF-8** , the response is displayed in the **Raw tab**

Best regards,

Karel

if you download 5.6.1 last stable version from [https://www.soapui.org/downloads/soapui/soapui-os-older-versions/](https://www.soapui.org/downloads/soapui/soapui-os-older-versions/)

it works and display xml tab by default as we used to it

log4j vulnerability also fixed in 5.6.1 if you download again. it uses log4j 2.16 which is fixed version and have necessary lookup variable set in soapui bat file to prevent latest vulnerability CVE-2021-44228

so until soaui fix 5.7 raw tab issue, you may use 5.6.1 But download again

Anthesum ,

I have prepared a fix for this and raised a merge request: [https://github.com/SmartBear/soapui/pull/725](https://github.com/SmartBear/soapui/pull/725) .

It needs to be merged into a new release of SoapUI. It seems the version 5.7.1 is being prepared.

AV , when do you plan to make a new release of SoapUI?

Best regards,

Karel
