SOAP4R and ActionWebServices Conflicts and the FIX
SOAP4R and ActionWebServices doesn’t get along very well – due to conflicts in their naming convention.
SOAP4R is used to connect to any Web Services based third party clients – may or may not be based on rails. SOAP4R works fine when its used independently.
If you have to offer your own Web Services using ActionWebServices – independently it works fine without SOAP4R being used.
When used together – the following exception is thrown – when wsdl URL is accessed related to your ActionWebServices!
NameError (uninitialized constant SOAP::XSDNamespaceTag):

You must have already included gem ’soap4r’ to make your WebServices Client code working.
To fix this problem … add the following code to your environment.rb file and restart your server. Now both should be working.
module SOAP
SOAPNamespaceTag = ‘env’
XSDNamespaceTag = ‘xsd’
XSINamespaceTag = ‘xsi’
end
