Decompression of response failed

[pratoa]

Hi I am getting this error when I try to run my suite programmatically. I did what I saw in another response, eliminating the httpcomponents dependency, but this didn't work for me.

Any Ideas?

Do you face any issue if the same project is used within soapui?
Are you able to run this project using SOAPUI_HOME/bin/testrunner(.bat/.sh)?

It is difficult without knowing how you are using or relevant code.

Hi Rao,

When I run it within SoapUI it works perfectly. The error only shows up when running it programmatically. I narrow down the error to this:

When calling it programmatically, instead of returning a string in JSON format it is returning a string with weird characters like this "�_o۶�� ��l@�XIܴ
�;i�ũ{���D[D%R#�d�E��%�?". It looks like SoapUI is encrypting the response?

Thank you,

Andres Prato

Hi

Just got the answer for this in this question https://community.smartbear.com/t5/SoapUI-NG/Turning-off-quot-Accept-compressed-responses-from-host-...

Thanks,
