I have a problem while querying the Microsoft Exchange Server WebServices to get Items in certain folders. In this order, I can make a request to the method expandDL and to the method findFolders. These work fine. But when I then make a request to findItems with all the found folders, I get 400 Bad Request with no error message.

I think this question is related to Querying Exchange Web Services fails with 400 Bad Request

I am using a WildFly 10 and Java 1.8. Apache CXF is used as framework for the webservice calls. The Exchange Server is of version 2013.

There are two observations that make this issue kind of mysterious, at least for me:

  1. When I make a findItem request, it has about eleven FolderIdTypes. The result is always a 400 Bad Request. I can remove some folders from the request and eventually when there are only four folders in the findItem request, everything works fine. It also doesn't matter which folder I remove as long as there are only four or less! See my soap request:

    Of course, I have also some restrictions like dates within it.

    My Inbound message from the exchange server looks like that:

 X-Powered-By=[ASP.NET]
}

  2. I can use the EWSEditor from Microsoft and post exactly the same SOAP request to the same Exchange Server. And surprisingly I get a successful response just the way I want.

If anyone can please point me in a direction how to solve this issue, that would be much appreciated.

Ok, I finally found my problem. In Apache CXF I had to set chunking disabled:

import org.apache.cxf.endpoint.Client;
import org.apache.cxf.frontend.ClientProxy;
...
Client client = ClientProxy.getClient(port);
HTTPConduit conduit = (HTTPConduit) client.getConduit();
HTTPClientPolicy policy = conduit.getClient();
if(policy == null) {
   policy = new HTTPClientPolicy();
}
policy.setAllowChunking(false);
