You can improve the default error message behavior by using customized XML error messages or USoft XML error messages (or a combination). Both types of XML error messages apply an XSL transformation to the default error message.
Customized XML error messages are defined per web service provider method, and generate a wsdl:fault element in the WSDL schema. This makes the structure of the error message available to the web service client.
The main characteristics of both types of error messages are:

USoft XML Error Messages
|
Each method has its own XSL transformation. A default transformation is provided (userror_wsp.xsl).
|
Each USoft installation uses one XSL transformation, for example userror.xsl or userror_enduser.xsl
|
The <soap:detail> element in the soap fault message contains the transformation result. This can be XML.
|
The result of the transformation is a string and goes into soap:faultstring and soap:detail elements in the soap fault message.
|
The WSDL schema contains fault information.
|
The WSDL schema does NOT contain fault information
|
Only the error messages reported by a web service method are changed.
|
Changing userror.xsl or userror_enduser.xsl changes all error messages reported by the Rules Service or by the application running.
