Logging on ZSI server using mod_python

Question

Hi all,

I developed a soap server using python ZSI. The server is running fine but the problem appears when I'm trying to log the xml received into a file:

import logging as log
LOG_FILENAME = '/var/log/zsiserver.log'
log.basicConfig(filename=LOG_FILENAME,level=log.DEBUG,)

from ZSI import dispatch
from mod_python import apache

mod = __import__('encodings.utf_8', globals(), locals(), '*')
mod = __import__('encodings.utf_16_be', globals(), locals(), '*')

import MyHandler
def handler(req):
#    log.debug('data received: ' + req.the_request)
    log.debug('data received: ' + req.read())
    dispatch.AsHandler(modules=(MyHandler,), request=req)
    return apache.OK

The log created is:

data received: <SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:ns0="http://www.csapi.org/schema/parlayx/sms/notification/v2_2/local" xmlns:wsse="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-secext-1.0.xsd" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:wsu="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-utility-1.0.xsd" xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"&gt;
   <SOAP-ENV:Header>
      <wsse:Security mustUnderstand="true">
         <wsse:UsernameToken>
            <wsse:Username>myusername</wsse:Username>
            <wsse:Password>mypassword</wsse:Password>
            <wsse:Nonce>811d071cec4569317ec4ae9c627cc592</wsse:Nonce>
            <wsu:Created>2010-10-19T11:12:30.268105</wsu:Created>
         </wsse:UsernameToken>
      </wsse:Security>
   </SOAP-ENV:Header>
   <SOAP-ENV:Body>
      <ns0:notifySmsReception>
         <ns0:correlator>666</ns0:correlator>
         <ns0:message>yihaaaaaaaaaa</ns0:message>
      </ns0:notifySmsReception>
   </SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

I think the problem is with the req.read() because it close the stream and makes a crash into dispatch.AsHandler function. If I delete the req.read() instruction, the server runs fine. How I can do to log the xml received?

Another question, it's possible with the ZSI library to parse a digest header to validate the username and password?

Thanks in advance for your help.
