SOAP message formatting in Provider-based endpoint.

Question

Good morning.
We have a Provider-based endpoint. Our client sends a SOAP request containing a signed node (XML signature). But our service is not validating it, because WLS formats the incoming message at some point. Something like this:
Client is sending:
<soap:Envelope ...>
<xml>
<someData id="data">
<node1> This is the data </node1>
</someData>
<ds:Signature>...
</ds:Signature>
<xml>
</soap:Envelope>
But when we log the incoming message, we see:
<soap:Envelope ...>
<xml>
<someData id="data"><node1> This is the data </node1></someData><ds:Signature>...</ds:Signature><xml></soap:Envelope>
That is, weblogic is changing the whitespace and line feeds.
¿How can we receive a message without changes?.
Thanks.

Swetank,
I would suggest you to get the data into XI with the help of SOAP adapter and map it to a RFC (if your requirements fit to standard) else to a zRFC and then get the response from RFC and send to the webservice. So make it as SOAP-XI-RFC synchrnous scenario.
Check this weblogs for some help on this scenario (but it is just exactly opposite to your scenario):
