<p>
Introduction to error handling with the 'fault' sequence
</p>
</subsection>
<subsection name="Pre-requisites">
<p>
<ul>
<li>
Deploy the SimpleStockQuoteService in the sample Axis2 server and start Axis2
</li>
<li>
Start Synapse using the configuration numbered 4 (repository/conf/sample/synapse_sample_4.xml)
<div class="command">
Unix/Linux: sh synapse.sh -sample 4<br/>
Windows: synapse.bat -sample 4
</div>
</li>
</ul>
</p>
</subsection>
<subsection name="Executing the Client">
<p>
First send a stock quote request from the sample client for the symbol 'IBM' as
follows.
</p>
<div class="command">ant stockquote -Daddurl=http://localhost:9000/services/SimpleStockQuoteService -Dtrpurl=http://localhost:8280/ -Dsymbol=IBM</div>
<p>
The request will be routed to the Axis2 server and client will receive a response
as expected.
</p>
<div class="consoleOutput">Standard :: Stock price = $95.26454380258552</div>
<p>
Now send another stock quote request for the symbol 'MSFT' as follows.
</p>
<div class="command">ant stockquote -Daddurl=http://localhost:9000/services/SimpleStockQuoteService -Dtrpurl=http://localhost:8280/ -Dsymbol=MSFT</div>
<p>
For MSFT requests Synapse is instructed to route the messages to an endpoint named
'bogus', which does not exist. Synapse executes the specified error handler
sequence closest to the point where the error was encountered. In this case, the
currently executing sequence is 'main' and it does not specify an 'onError'
attribute. Whenever Synapse cannot find an error handler, it looks for a sequence
named 'fault'. Thus the 'fault' sequence can be seen executing, and writing the
generic error message to the logs.
</p>
<div class="consoleOutput">[HttpServerWorker-1] DEBUG SendMediator - Send mediator :: mediate()
[HttpServerWorker-1] ERROR IndirectEndpoint - Reference to non-existent endpoint for key : bogus
[HttpServerWorker-1] DEBUG MediatorFaultHandler - MediatorFaultHandler :: handleFault
[HttpServerWorker-1] DEBUG SequenceMediator - Sequence mediator &lt;fault&gt; :: mediate()
[HttpServerWorker-1] DEBUG LogMediator - Log mediator :: mediate()
[HttpServerWorker-1] INFO LogMediator text = An unexpected error occured, message = Couldn't find the endpoint with the key : bogus</div>
<p>
Now send another stock quote request for the symbol 'SUN'.
</p>
<div class="command">ant stockquote -Daddurl=http://localhost:9000/services/SimpleStockQuoteService -Dtrpurl=http://localhost:8280/ -Dsymbol=SUN</div>
<p>
When the 'SUN' quote is requested, a custom sequence 'sunSequence' is invoked,
and it specifies 'sunErrorHandler' as its error handler. Hence when the send
fails, you could see the proper error handler invocation and the custom error
message printed as follows.
</p>
<div class="consoleOutput">[HttpServerWorker-1] DEBUG SequenceMediator - Sequence mediator &lt;sunSequence&gt; :: mediate()
[HttpServerWorker-1] DEBUG SequenceMediator - Setting the onError handler for the sequence
[HttpServerWorker-1] DEBUG AbstractListMediator - Implicit Sequence &lt;SequenceMediator&gt; :: mediate()
[HttpServerWorker-1] DEBUG SendMediator - Send mediator :: mediate()
[HttpServerWorker-1] ERROR IndirectEndpoint - Reference to non-existent endpoint for key : sunPort
[HttpServerWorker-1] DEBUG MediatorFaultHandler - MediatorFaultHandler :: handleFault
[HttpServerWorker-1] DEBUG SequenceMediator - Sequence mediator &lt;sunErrorHandler&gt; :: mediate()
[HttpServerWorker-1] DEBUG AbstractListMediator - Implicit Sequence &lt;SequenceMediator&gt; :: mediate()
[HttpServerWorker-1] DEBUG LogMediator - Log mediator :: mediate()
[HttpServerWorker-1] INFO LogMediator text = An unexpected error occured for stock SUN, message = Couldn't find the endpoint with the key : sunPort</div>
