The servlet transport does not set the HTTP response code to 500 when a SOAP fault is returned (unless an exception was thrown)

Steps:
Edit axis2-1.4/samples/userguide/src/userguide/example1/MyService.java and make it look like shown below:

package userguide.example1;
import org.apache.axiom.om.OMElement;

import org.apache.axis2.AxisFault;

import javax.xml.stream.XMLStreamException;

public class MyService {

public OMElement echo(OMElement element) throws XMLStreamException

{ return org.apache.axiom.om.OMAbstractFactory.getSOAP11Factory().getDefaultFaultEnvelope().getBody().getFirstElement(); }

public void ping(OMElement element) throws XMLStreamException

{ //Do some processing }

public void pingF(OMElement element) throws AxisFault

{ throw new AxisFault("Fault being thrown"); }

}

Invoking the echo service now returns:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK

Server: Apache-Coyote/1.1
