JR63614: A SOAP HEADER CONFIGURED IN A MEDIATION FLOW GETS IGNORED IN A WEB SERVICE IMPORT

workflow.2102.delta.repository

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Scenario:
  - A SCA module A calls a SCA module B via SCA import/export
  - Module B contains a mediation flow that sets a SOAP header to
    the message
  - Module B contains a web service import that calls a remote web
    service, and should use the SOAP header set in the mediation
  
  
  Expected result:
  The SOAP header sent by the web service import in module B
  should use the SOAP header configured in the mediation flow of
  module B
  
  Observed result:
  - The scenario works as expected if both SCA modules reside on
    one server
  - If SCA modules A, and B reside on different servers then the
    SOAP header gets generated by using values set automatically
    in module A.
    The SOAP header configured in the mediation flow of module B
    gets ignored.
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• This issue occurs because a new instance of SCA Message is
  created and the native header parsed flag is set to false. The
  native headers are parsed again which overwrites the change in
  the mediation component.
  

Problem conclusion

• A fix is available or will be available that ensures the native
  data holder is empty after the WBISessionManager removes the
  SessionContext. So the native headers won't be parsed again. And
   SessionContext header won't be put back to the SCA message
  headers.
