Hi everyone, I am trying to access a Webservice with kSOAP2 on an Android Phone. I think the connection is being established, but the server won't answer my request since I'm not providing a SOAP Action Header which seems to be required in SOAP Version 1.1(please correct me if I'm wrong here) which I have to use since the server does not support Version 1.2 . The concrete Faultcode which is returning in the request looks like this:

faultactor  null    
faultcode   "S:Server" (id=830064966432)    
faultstring "String index out of range: -11" (id=830064966736)

The errorcode which is generated on the server (I'm running it on a localhost) looks like this:

4.05.2010 20:20:29 com.sun.xml.internal.ws.transport.http.HttpAdapter fixQuotesAroundSoapAction
WARNUNG: Received WS-I BP non-conformant Unquoted SoapAction HTTP header: http://server.contextlayer.bscwi.de/createContext

The relevant part of the WSDL (at least that's what I'm thinking) looks like this:

<operation name="createContext">
<soap:operation soapAction=""/>
-
<input>
<soap:body use="literal" namespace="http://server.contextlayer.bscwi.de/"/>
</input>
-
<output>
<soap:body use="literal" namespace="http://server.contextlayer.bscwi.de/"/>
</output>
</operation>    

In my code I'm adding a Header, but it seems like I'm doing it wrong:

private static final String SOAP_ACTION  = "";
//...
SoapSerializationEnvelope soapEnvelope = new SoapSerializationEnvelope (SoapEnvelope.VER11);
soapEnvelope.setOutputSoapObject(Request);
AndroidHttpTransport aht = new AndroidHttpTransport (URL);
//...
aht.call(SOAP_ACTION, soapEnvelope);
        SoapPrimitive resultString = (SoapPrimitive) soapEnvelope.getResponse();

Any advice would be great since I'm running out of ideas.. Thanks folks!
