BOTS OpenAS2 MDN issue

[Gordon Sun]

Hi everyone,

We are using BOTS and OpenAS2 as our EDI solution. But when our partner send us message, we return a MDN that their system cannot handle and sometimes even just crashes.

Here are some of the errors. I wonder if anyone have any experience with them. Thank you very much!

The last one with Java null pointer exception does not happen when we send unsigned MDN. But the other 2 with the boundary issue is happening with or without signing.

Thank you very much!

We also wonder how difficult would it be to switch from OpenAS2 to Mendelson. Thank you.

After inspecting the message we were sending, it was our nginx server messed things up.
