How to Add and Propagate Fault Handling in a Synchronous BPEL Process

This section describes how to add and propagate fault handling in a synchronous BPEL process. During the design, you perform the following tasks:

  • Modify the existing schema and WSDL files to include fault element, fault message, and fault operation details.

  • Add fault handling to the BPEL process (specifically, a catch activity).

  • Create a fault variable with the fault message type you specified in the WSDL file.

  • Add assign and reply activities with additional fault handling details.
