IRS-A2A "message was not formatted properly" (TPE1105 - uniqueTransmissionID)

781 Views Asked by At

I am working on integrating the A2A channel for the IRS through their WSDL using WCF. I'm able to get passed any code related errors sending the request but currently receiving the following error back from the IRS:

<faultstring>The message was not formatted properly and/or cannot be interpreted. Please review the XML standards outlined in Section 3 of Publication 5258 (...), correct any issues, and try again.</faultstring>
<detail>
    <errorcode>TPE1105</errorcode>
    <uniqueTransmissionID/>
</detail>

I'm assuming based on the additional node of <uniqueTransmissionID/> in the response it has something to do with the UTID. I've looked over the format of the UTID and the Soap Envelope examples countless times and can't for the life of me figure out what may be out of place. I tried a small suggestion by fatherOfWine in a previous answer of moving the BusinessHeader up above the Manifest but it returns the same error.

I've added the full request with the Soap Envelope, whitespace appears to be stripped during the request but I've re-formatted it coming from Fiddler.

Update: I added the Security Header and have gotten passed this specific problem, now working on resolving the WS-Security error. I've also updated my envelope with what has changed.

Just throwing this out in the wind (more of a comment but too long), but it looks like you are missing these to elements from their example:

<urn4:ACASecurityHeader xmlns:urn4="urn:us:gov:treasury:irs:msg:acasecurityheader" />
<oas:Security xmlns:oas="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401- wss-wssecurity-secext-1.0.xsd" />

You are using this prefix for urn3, which is not referenced in any elements from what I can tell. Not sure if it makes any difference or not, but the above to elements do precede the section that is giving you an error. Feel free to disregard if it sounds like non-sense to you.

I'd like to add to this, one of the things that I learned through developing this process a couple of years ago: the request you send, whether for status or submission, needs to be identical to their example.

The method I used to accomplish this was to create separate XML template documents (one for Submission one for Status) which contains the entire XML needed for each request.

At a high-level, my application uses the WSDL objects by populating them with appropriate data, then I replace the XML elements in the template with values from the objects, sign the XML document, attach the form data (for submission), and send the request.

Reviewing what you posted and comparing it to what I have previously transmitted, I found a couple of differences:

  • In your envelope definition, you have an attribute xmlns:oasl, I do not have this.
  • In your InclusiveNamespaces element, I have PrefixList="wsse wsa soapenv urn urn1 urn2 urn3". I was told having this literal value was a must.
  • Your DigestMethod is sha256, while mine is sha1. I understand there is a difference between the two, but this could be causing you some problems?
  • I have a urn3:ACASecurityHeader element containing a urn1:UserId element, which I think you have already resolved (its just not updated in your original post)

Here is the envelope I am currently attempting to send which is resulting in a TPE1122 WS Security Header error being returned.

The following envelope XML is a working envelope for transmission for TY2018. Information has been redacted.
