Spring-ws and Stripes framework - a bad cocktail? - spring-ws

Question

I'm using Spring 2.5.6, Spring-ws 1.5.9, and Stripes 1.5.6.
I have a working webservice which was implementing using xml parsing etc. I'll not go into details about this, as I don't think this is the problem.
I'm working on a new ws and found this page quite useful: http://jeromebulanadi.wordpress.com/2010/02/25/basic-spring-web-service-tutorial-from-contract-to-security/
...so using the above as example to implement a new ws (the link contains an example with marshalling/unmarshalling of objects instead of doing all the xml yourself).
When connecting to the ws I get this error message (from a webservice template - also in Spring):
org.springframework.ws.client.WebServiceTransportException: Not Found [404]
at org.springframework.ws.client.core.WebServiceTemplate.handleError(WebServiceTemplate.java:627)
at org.springframework.ws.client.core.WebServiceTemplate.doSendAndReceive(WebServiceTemplate.java:551)
at org.springframework.ws.client.core.WebServiceTemplate.sendAndReceive(WebServiceTemplate.java:502)

at org.springframework.ws.client.core.WebServiceTemplate.marshalSendAndReceive(WebServiceTemplate.java:345)
at org.springframework.ws.client.core.WebServiceTemplate.marshalSendAndReceive(WebServiceTemplate.java:337)
The call originates from my template and I'm calling like this:
GetSignalsByCprRequest request = new GetSignalsByCprRequest();
request.setCpr(new BigInteger(cpr));
GetSignalsByCprResponse response = (GetSignalsByCprResponse) getWebServiceTemplate().marshalSendAndReceive(request);
A larger stack trace is:

"--- ENTER TEMPLATE ---" is printed just above the request/response is created. The error happens in GetSignalsByCprResponse response = (GetSignalsByCprResponse) getWebServiceTemplate().marshalSendAndReceive(request);
I'm quite blank - I have no idea as where to go. I have a slight idea that either the soap message doesn't contain the namespace OR that Stripes catches the request - based on the stack trace... Stripes is using DynamicMappingFilter, thus mapping the url-pattern to /* - which might be the problem.
Any ideas or pointers is much appreciated!

Seems that your Stripes servlet is handling URL’s you want to be handled by the Spring-ws servlet that will handle your web service requests. You might want to check your <url-pattern> in your web.xml.
