Error description

• Duplicate SOAP element may appear in the SOAP message when
  using JAX-RPC and the Feature Pack for Web Services is
  installed.
  
  Note: APAR PM13432 corrects this problem for
  WebSphere Application Server V7.0 and WebSphere Application
  Server V6.1 (when the Feature Pack for Web Services is not
  installed).
  
  While processing an inbound SOAP message, WebSphere Application
  Server Web services runtime may incorrectly generate an extra
  SOAP element.
  
  For example, this SOAP message is received by
  WebSphere Application Server:
  
  <soapenv:Envelope
  xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
  xmlns:test="http://www.noplace.com/test/">
  <soapenv:Header/>
  <soapenv:Body>
  <test:TestOperation>
  <dataIn>Test XML IN</dataIn>
  </test:TestOperation>
  </soapenv:Body>
  </soapenv:Envelope>
  
  After processing, we see an extra SOAP element in the SOAP body
  
  <soapenv:Envelope
  xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
  xmlns:test="http://www.noplace.com/test/">
  <soapenv:Header/>
  <soapenv:Body>
  <test:TestOperation>
  <dataIn>Test XML IN</dataIn>
  </test:TestOperation>
  <test:TestOperation>
  <dataIn>Test XML IN</dataIn>
  </test:TestOperation>
  </soapenv:Body>
  </soapenv:Envelope>

  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Duplicate SOAP element may appear in    *
  *                      the SOAP message when using a JAX-RPC   *
  *                      Web service application                 *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:  Install a fix pack that contains this APAR. *
  ****************************************************************
  For a JAX-RPC Web service application generated with
  the -noDataBinding option, the XML is mapped to a
  javax.xml.soap.SOAPElement interface defined by the "SOAP
  with Attachments API for Java" (SAAJ) specification.
  
  There is a problem in the JAX-RPC runtime that may cause a
  duplicate SOAPElement to appear in the SOAP message.
  

Problem conclusion

• The Web services engine was corrected to avoid adding the
  duplicate SOAP element when processing the SOAP message.
  
  Note: APAR PM13432 corrects this problem for
  WebSphere Application Server V7.0 and WebSphere Application
  Server V6.1 (when the Feature Pack for Web Services is not
  installed).
  
  The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
  fix pack 6.1.0.35.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
  page for delivery information:
