Steps to reproduce:
1. create a soap web service (tested in .NET, but should be same regardless of back end)
2. make the service generate a soap error
3. create a WebService control to call the web service
3. view fault object in flex debugger
 
 Actual Results:
 
 Flex reports an IO error with it's own details, not the soap error

 Expected Results:
 
 The soap error should have been available as a fault in Flex.

 Workaround (if any):
 
None, you can not get fault info in Flex with Web Services.



here's an example fault captured with Charles:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"><soap:Body><soap:Fault><faultcode>soap:Server</faultcode><faultstring>System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: Server was unable to process request. ---&gt; System.Data.DataException: Unable to connect to Northwind database. ---&gt; System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)

   at Categories.FindAll(Int32 categoryId, String orderField, Boolean orderDesc)
   --- End of inner exception stack trace ---</faultstring><detail /></soap:Fault></soap:Body></soap:Envelope>



but here's the error I saw in Flex:
