SOAP Axis receiver: host parameter is null

Question

Hello,
we are on a PI 7.11 (SP06) system & we are trying to setup a scenario SOAP - SOAP (Axis) where we initiate a third party webservice. To connect to this service we are obliged to go through our proxy, which we defined in our JVM parameters:
http.nonProxyHosts: [*.ont.local|*.val.local|*.mon.local]
http.proxyHost: [proxypac.mon.local]
http.proxyPort: [8080]
http.proxySet: true
When we execute our scenario via soapUI we get following error:
com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException:
com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException:
XIAdapterFramework:GENERAL:com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: host parameter is null
We already tried with http://proxypac.mon.local as parameter as well but still we get this error.
Furthermore we are able to make a connection to the service via a SM59 connection.
Axis details:
Adapter Common Library Version: 1.7.1106.20110202095400.0000, NW711_06_REL
Adapter Application Version: 1.7.1106.20110202095400.0000, NW711_06_REL
Axis Version: Apache Axis version: 1.4 Built on Apr 22, 2006 (06:55:48 PDT)
Many thanks in advance for your help,
Frédéric.

Hello Mark,
we get this last error when connecting with SOAP receiver instead of Axis receiver.
We are sending different headers (wsa & wsse) in our soapUI request:
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:klip="http://ws.agiv.be/klipws" xmlns:wsse="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-secext-1.0.xsd" xmlns:wsu="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-utility-1.0.xsd" xmlns:wsa="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2004/08/addressing" xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

For the Axis receiver it looks like one of the handlers can't get the value of our host parameter.
Any help or tips would be really appreciated!
