SOAP faults always fail to parse: SoapFault.parse missing parser.require(END_TAG,ENV,"Fault")?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Make any SOAP call that returns a SOAP fault

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect org.ksoap2.SoapFault to be thrown. Instead, I see:

org.xmlpull.v1.XmlPullParserException: expected: END_TAG 
{http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/}Body (position:END_TAG 
</{http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/}soap:Fault>@1:650 in 
java.io.InputStreamReader@438fff30)

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
This is "ksoap2-android-assembly-2.3-jar-with-dependencies.jar" which your 
downloads page lists as uploaded Aug 16, on Android 1.6.

Please provide any additional information below.

I'm looking at ksoap2-base/src/main/java/org/ksoap2/SoapFault.java and 
SoapFault.parse() looks suspicious. It calls parser.require for the start 
Fault tag, but not the end Fault tag.

Here is transport.responseDump:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><soap:Envelope 
xmlns:zeusns_1_1="http://soap.zeus.com/zxtm/1.1/"

@sudeep.netizen The above patch, ksoap2fault.diff, fixes this issue: just get 
the 
ksoap2-android source, apply the patch, build - but last time I checked, I 
couldn't see 
a way to build "ksoap2-android-assembly-2.3-jar-with-dependencies.jar". What I 
did was 
to cheat: open that jar and replace org/ksoap2/SoapFault.class.

Extremely frustrated with this same problem  ... applied the fix.
Maybe ksoap2 needs a new release? Is this project closed?
What are the other options? I'm a java developer and I shouldn't be stuck on 
this 
prob after a few days now?!

• Changed state: Fixed

Can you build a new JAR for the project?  I'm not too sure on how to exactly 
check
out the code and package it back up.

Hello, I applied patch on both 2.3 and 2.4, after maven rebuild original issue 
vanished but new one appeared: java.lang.ClassCastException for 
org.ksoap2.SoapFault.
Looks like issue comes from parseBody in SoapEnvelope.java and 
SoapSerializationEnvelope.java, when assigning fault to bodyIn..

An official JAR for version 2.3 or 2.4 would be much appreciated!

Thanks a lot

soap fault parsing was broken in 2.5.2 and other old releases. Upgrade to 2.5.7
