Soap UI vs Curl Response tIme Difference

Question

A soap service built using spring was organized in one of our data centers. When I test through the SOAP interface, I get a response in 1 second or less. However, when I run the same request through CURL, it takes more than 30 seconds to complete. I execute both commands from the same machine. What could be the reason for this difference?

curl  -H "Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8" -H "SOAPAction:"  -d @request.xml <endpoint>

Answer 1

A few things to consider:

• the media type ( Content-Type) field for SOAP requests should be application/soap+xml(see SOAP 1.2 specifications, end of section 1.3 ). If your encoding is UTF-8, install Content-Type: application/soap+xml; charset=UTF-8.

• SOAPAction undefined, , curl . , curl --trace-ascii /dev/stdout.

• XML- () , --data-binary -d/--data. . XML-, , , , .

• curl -, httpbin, -vvv, , --trace* , /.

, curl :

curl -H 'Content-Type: application/soap+xml; charset=UTF-8' \
     -H 'SOAPAction: Some-Action' \
     --data-binary @request.xml \
     <endpoint>
