Errors returned to a client sending a SOAP request

What kind of problem are you seeing?

If none of these errors match the one you see:

SOAPException: faultCode=SOAP-ENV:Client; msg=Error opening socket; java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect

To verify this situation, send the message directly to the SOAP port; for example, to http://hostname:9080. If the message is sent correctly, there are two ways to resolve the problem:

javax.security.cert.CertPathBuilderException: No end-entity certificate matching the selection criteria could be found

To replace these files in a SOAP-enabled application that is not yet installed:
