The official documentation of all the APIs offered by Ebay can be found here.

Cannot create message: incorrect content-type for SOAP version. Got text/xml; charset=UTF-8, but expected application/soap+xml – Ebay API

I am trying to use the large merchant services API provided by eBay to upload files onto eBay.

They have provided with a sample.jar file of the same. It seems to be working fine when we execute the .jar file on the command prompt, but when i am trying to integrate its source in my web app its giving me this error. Also i tried to create a web service client using Netbeans and tried to use it, but still it gave me the same error. I also changed the SOAP version from 1.1 to 1.2 but that too doesn’t seem to work. The following is the complete stack trace.

    Got it to work, seems like my JDK was corrupt with all external jar files that i added to get it to work. Upgraded to Java 7 and it seems to be working fine now.

    SAAJ0533: Cannot create message: incorrect content-type for SOAP version. Got text/xml; charset=UTF-8, but expected application/soap+xml

    Based on the exception message I say you have something mixed up.

    For all SOAP messages sent, the Content-type header should be:

    • text/xml for SOAP v1.1
    • application/soap+xml for SOAP v1.2.

    Check these first, then my suggestion would be to try to see what’s going on the wire (with Fiddler for ex.) and then compare what’s different in your web app as opposed to the sample.jar which works.

    SAAJ0533: Cannot create message: incorrect content-type for SOAP version. Got text/xml; charset=UTF-8, but expected application/soap+xml

    Actually, we got this error because SaajSoapMessageFactory was created “manually” not as a @Bean, so it wasn’t taken in charge by the Spring lifecycle and didn’t call the afterPropertiesSet method.

    So, follow these examples and advices:

    Hope this help,
