Solution 1

I had this same issue with a particular device and it took me a few days of searching and trial and error to come up with a solution (almost purely by chance). I was able to solve this issue by adding a custom Handler to the port. The handler only needs to provide the QName for the WS-Addressing Action header (it doesn't need to do anything when handleMessage is called).

This is what worked for me:

public class ActionHandler implements SOAPHandler<SOAPMessageContext> 
{   
    @Override
    public boolean handleMessage(SOAPMessageContext context) 
    {
        // Auto-generated method stub
        return true;
    }

    @Override
    public boolean handleFault(SOAPMessageContext context) 
    {
        // Auto-generated method stub
        return false;
    }

    @Override
    public void close(MessageContext context) 
    {
        // Auto-generated method stub
    }

    @Override
    public Set<QName> getHeaders() 
    {
        Set<QName> set = new HashSet<QName>();
        // Make sure the '[{http://www.w3.org/2005/08/addressing}]Action' header 
        // is handled in case the device set the 'MustUnderstand' attribute to '1'
        set.add(new QName("http://www.w3.org/2005/08/addressing", "Action"));
        return set;
    }   
}

Then add the Handler to binding's handler chain:

BindingProvider bindingProvider = (BindingProvider) eventPortType;      
final Binding binding = bindingProvider.getBinding();

List<Handler> handlerList = binding.getHandlerChain();
if (handlerList == null)
    handlerList = new ArrayList<Handler>();

handlerList.add(new ActionHandler());

binding.setHandlerChain(handlerList);

Solution 2

In my case, this helps :

getPort(QName portName,
            Class<T> serviceEndpointInterface, WebServiceFeature... features)

passing new javax.xml.ws.soap.AddressingFeature() as WebServiceFeature .

Solution to FIX

"MustUnderstand headers:[{http://www.w3.org/2005/08/addressing}Action] are not understood"
"The server sent HTTP status code 415: Cannot process the message because the content type 'application/soap+xml;charset="utf-8";"

Use NetBeans version 7.1 or higher to generate Web Service Client.

( NetBeans will use javax.xml.ws.Service)

So FIX some things in the Code:

When you instantiate your client service, you need pass the "feature" param.

com.sun.xml.internal.ws.developer.BindingTypeFeature featureB = new BindingTypeFeature(javax.xml.ws.soap.SOAPBinding.SOAP12HTTP_BINDING);
javax.xml.ws.soap.AddressingFeature featureA = new AddressingFeature();

IGeneratedServiceEV servico = new GeneratedService()
.getBasicHttpBindingGeneratedServiceEV(featureA,featureB);

The most important thing is that you have to create a service using the "feature": "javax.xml.ws.Service.getPort(wsdlLocation, featureA, FeatureB)"

After you can migrate the code to another IDE like "Eclipse".

Solution 4

yes,I solved it

WSService service  = new WSService();
IWSService wcf = service.getWSHttpBindingIWSService(new AddressingFeature(true));

I am using Jax-ws to implement client application for Onvif IP camera, I am sending a request to camera to create PullPointSubscription ,It seems the camera understands the request and process the request and send the correct response , but the client jax-ws code throws an exception

MustUnderstand headers:[{http://www.w3.org/2005/08/addressing}Action] are not understood

I do not understand what is the problem exactly? Anybody can explain what the problem is and how to solve it?

The exception details

The request soap message is
