I'm working on a 4D SOAP web service that uses SForce 'query' to retreive data. The problem is that half of the objects are 'unretreivable' due to the error: "The returned XML is incorrect. : Complex types are not parsed in this version."
Most of the errors are elaborated as: "error at line X, column Y: The input ended before all started tags were ended. Last tag started was 'sf:Body'", although I have several "expected equal sign" and "expected end of tag" errors as well.
Are there any XML cases and/or exceptions that might cause this?
We've never had any problems of this type with test databases, but only with real large accounts, so I'm suspecting that something unusual (special character? tag?) in SOAP reply is causing this.
Has anyone built or attempted to build a sControl (or something similar) that performs lead conversion? There are a number of functional/usability issues we experience with the current setup (i.e. not enforcing required fields to be completed when creating a new account/opportunity during conversion). It seems like a sControl with the API would be a great interim solution until SFDC finally makes some changes to the app. Any ideas or feedback would be great.
