XML Digital Signature Authentication Sometimes Fails When Entire Document is Signed (141772)

For resources protected by the SOA Agent for JBoss, XML Digital Signature authentication is failing for SOAP requests where the entire document is signed. This failure is because the JBoss container does not preserve whitespace between SOAP message elements.

Workaround

Program the web service client to remove all whitespace between SOAP message elements in the request message to match the space removal that JBoss performs upon receiving the message.
