This error means WashOut is unable to find the requested action (in your particular case it fails to even parse it – it's empty string).

Also the wash_out version you use is critically old. Current one is 0.9.0. Please upgrade.

I've seen that some Soap clients send the request in a way wash_out can't infer the soapAction value, as a consequence it can't link the request to an action in the wash_out controller.

For having a working reference, I think you should try a soap client such as soapUI or Savon, I've seen they send the request in a way wash_out can infer which is the soapAction in the request.
