A required header representing a Message Addressing Property is not present

Question

I am getting this error in SOAPUI:

<env:Envelope xmlns:env="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:wsa="http://www.w3.org/2005/08/addressing">
   <env:Header>
      <wsa:Action>http://www.w3.org/2005/08/addressing/fault</wsa:Action>
   </env:Header>
   <env:Body>
      <env:Fault>
         <faultcode>wsa:MessageAddressingHeaderRequired</faultcode>
         <faultstring>A required header representing a Message Addressing Property is not present</faultstring>
      </env:Fault>
   </env:Body>
</env:Envelope>

I used the SoapHeader and SoapElement in my java code. So XML output of code:

<S:Envelope xmlns:S="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
   <S:Header>
      <wsse:Security xmlns:wsse="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-secext-1.0.xsd" xmlns:wsu="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-utility-1.0.xsd">
         <wsse:UsernameToken wsu:Id="UsernameToken">
            <wsse:Username>Username</wsse:Username>
            <wsse:Password Type="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-username-token-profile-1.0#PasswordText">Password</wsse:Password>
            <wsse:Nonce EncodingType="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-soap-message-security-1.0#Base64Binary">...</wsse:Nonce>
            <wsu:Created>2016-05-07T11:57:03.821Z</wsu:Created>
         </wsse:UsernameToken>
      </wsse:Security>
   </S:Header>
   <S:Body>
      <ns2:getRequestDetail xmlns:ns2="http://xmlns.oracle.com/scheduler" xmlns:ns3="http://xmlns.oracle.com/scheduler/types">
         <ns2:requestId>37</ns2:requestId>
      </ns2:getRequestDetail>
   </S:Body>
</S:Envelope>

normally in SOAPUI:

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:sch="http://xmlns.oracle.com/scheduler">
      <soapenv:Header>
      <wsse:Security soapenv:mustUnderstand="1"  xmlns:wsse="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-secext-1.0.xsd" xmlns:wsu="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-utility-1.0.xsd">
         <wsse:UsernameToken wsu:Id="UsernameToken">
            <wsse:Username>Username</wsse:Username>
            <wsse:Password Type="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-username-token-profile-1.0#PasswordText">Password</wsse:Password>
            <wsse:Nonce EncodingType="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-soap-message-security-1.0#Base64Binary">...</wsse:Nonce>
            <wsu:Created>2016-05-07T11:57:03.821Z</wsu:Created>
         </wsse:UsernameToken>
      </wsse:Security>
   </soapenv:Header>
   <soapenv:Body>
      <sch:getRequestDetail>
         <sch:requestId>37</sch:requestId>
      </sch:getRequestDetail>
   </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

Maybe, The difference between the xml code Causing this error?

Thansk for all,

seems like a classloading problem make sure not having same dependency lib with different version for jaxb — Romeo Sheshi, Jul 12 '16 at 15:17
I solve this kind issue by setting, in request Properties, WS-Addressing to false — Maforast, Aug 30 '17 at 13:42

seems its a late response. I believe adding the below into the header should help you out.

    <wsa:Action>http://....../{operationName}</wsa:Action>
    <wsa:To>http(s)://.../serviceName</wsa:To>

I came across same exception and adding(creating) the following class,

public class SoapRequestHeaderModifier implements WebServiceMessageCallback {

    String action ="http://xxx.xxx.xx.x/PlayerServices/PlayerIntelligence/PlayerManagementService";
    String uri = "http://xxx.xxx.xx.x/PlayerServices/PlayerIntelligence/PlayerManagementService/SetCode";


    @Override
    public void doWithMessage(WebServiceMessage message) {
        SaajSoapMessage soapMessage = (SaajSoapMessage) message;
        SoapHeader soapHeader = soapMessage.getSoapHeader();

        QName wsaToQName = new QName("http://www.w3.org/2005/08/addressing", "To", "wsa");
        SoapHeaderElement wsaTo =  soapHeader.addHeaderElement(wsaToQName);
        wsaTo.setText(uri);

        QName wsaActionQName = new QName("http://www.w3.org/2005/08/addressing", "Action", "wsa");
        SoapHeaderElement wsaAction =  soapHeader.addHeaderElement(wsaActionQName);
    wsaAction.setText(action);
    }

}

and providing it as an callback function argument in the webServiceTemplate.marshalSendAndReceive() method helped me solving the issue.

JAXBElement<T> response = (JAXBElement<BatchResponse>) webServiceTemplate
            .marshalSendAndReceive("url?wsdl", batchRequest,new 
SoapRequestHeaderModifier());

reffered this, Use SOAP 1.2 with WebServiceGatewaySupport in Spring

Hope below answer might help others facing the error in the subject-line. Issue got resolved by adding this element to the header list

<wsa:MessageID>uuid:d077a3a6-e63d-462f-a06f-db9e55a28350</wsa:MessageID>

uuid is some random unique number and in SoapUI, it's set by ticking the Randomly generate messageID option as in the attached snippet:

A required header representing a Message Addressing Property is not present
