Hi All, I am facing problem to send a string of size more than 32KB when invoking the web service. Its working fine upto 32KB.I need to send string of size 80KB to web service. I Used the jax-ws 2.0, WebSphere Application Server 6.1.0.7 (Web service feature pack). Is there any where i need to set size in program or in Application Server I am getting following Exception when trying to send string size more then 32kb.

From the Exception Stacktrace.. I can see that problem is not while sending... but after receiving a response. Check the response you are getting from the server. You can use this tool.. TCP Trace. A very handy tool for viewing the HTTP/TCP traffic.
