IT35843: WSDL DOCUMENT FOR SOAP SERVICE USING NODE WIDE LISTENER WILL EXPOSE LISTENER PORT NUMBER IN SOAP ADDRESS FIELD

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• If a SOAP Service is deployed to a node owned integration
  server, and the WSDL document is requested using the ?wsdl query
  url then the <soap:address> element of the WSDL will incorrectly
  include the node-wide HTTP listener port number if the Host
  header in the HTTP request does not specify a port number.
  
  For example if a request is sent to
  http://localhost:7080/MySoapService?wsdl with the header "Host:
  myservername" then the returned WSDL will incorrectly show
  
  <soap:address
  location="http://myservername:7080/MySoapService"/>
  
  Rather than
  
  <soap:address location="http://myservername/MySoapService"/>
  
  This problem is not present if the embedded HTTP listener is
  used, or an independent integration server is used.
  

Local fix

• Use the embedded HTTP listener

  used, or an independent integration server is used.
  

Problem conclusion

• The SOAP address location field will correctly reflect the Host
  value specified by the client when using the node-wide listener.
