The root element is missing and soapExtension

[cordata5]

Hi I'm using the example posted on Ron Howard's site for encryting the
body of an xml file located at http://www.gotdotnet.com/team/rhoward/
I'm running into trouble where i'm getting an error of this type:

System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: Server was unable to
process request. ---> System.Xml.XmlException: The root element is
missing. at System.Xml.XmlTextReader.Read() at
System.Xml.XmlReader.MoveToContent() at
System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapServerProtocolHe lper.GetHelper(SoapServerProtocol
protocol) at System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapServerProtocol.R eadParameters()
at System.Web.Services.Protocols.WebServiceHandler.In voke() at
System.Web.Services.Protocols.WebServiceHandler.Co reProcessRequest()
--- End of inner exception stack trace ---

Does anyone have experience doing encryption of xml file via use of
soapextensions? I'm using the code directly from this example and
it's not working.

Hi,

Is this the error thrown by the client? Or by the server? This kind of
error can happen if you aren't careful to manage the copy/assignment of the
in-out streams in both directions in you Soap Extension

Hope this helps

Im getting the same error. I can see that my soapextension is decrypting the soap message on the Server. I can see that the soapMessage message contains the right information. However the process skips the AfterDeserialize and the call to the webmethod and goes directly to BeforeSerialize on the server. Did you figure out what was the problem

My Decrypt function copies the decrypted message to newStream.
