soapUI mock bug

Today I stumbled onto interesting soapUI quirk, involving a combination of mock services, SOAP 1.2 and multipart message definitions.

In essence, the soapUI mock service will always return an HTTP 500, with the following response:

{% highlight xml %} <soap:Envelope xmlns:soap=“http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope"> soap:Body soap:Fault soap:Code soap:ValueServer</soap:Value> </soap:Code> soap:Reason <soap:Text xml:lang=“en”>Missing operation for soapAction [http://services.net.bencode/wsdl/2016/06/01/retrievecoolnesslevelrequest] and body element [{http://services.net.bencode/wsdl/2016/06/01}retrieveCoolnessLevelRequest] with SOAP Version [SOAP 1.2]</soap:Text> </soap:Reason> </soap:Fault> </soap:Body> </soap:Envelope> {% endhighlight %}

Sigh.

Thankfully some legend known as fyerf posted a solution on the smartbear community forums.
