I am trying to use MULE to post an XML file to a web service via HTTP, but whatever I try it complains about the payload type. My current Mule configuration is:
<file:connector name="File" writeToDirectory="C:\Users\mark.gordon\Documents\Timesheets" readFromDirectory="C:\Users\mark.gordon\Documents\Timesheets" autoDelete="true" streaming="true" validateConnections="true" doc:name="File"/>
<http:request-config name="HTTP_Request_Configuration" protocol="HTTPS" host="cpa-test.mcnicholas.co.uk" port="443" basePath="/cgi-bin/portal" doc:name="HTTP Request Configuration" tlsContext-ref="TLS_Context">
</http:request-config>
<tls:context name="TLS_Context" doc:name="TLS Context">
<tls:trust-store path="C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\lib\security\cacert" password="changeit"/>
</tls:context>
<http:request-config name="HTTP_Request_Configuration1" protocol="HTTPS" host="cpa-live.mcnicholas.co.uk" port="443" basePath="/cgi-bin/portal" doc:name="HTTP Request Configuration"/>
<flow name="timesheetsFlow">
<file:inbound-endpoint path="C:\Users\mark.gordon\Documents\Timesheets" moveToDirectory="C:\Users\mark.gordon\Documents\Timesheets\Processed" connector-ref="File" responseTimeout="10000" doc:name="File">
<file:filename-regex-filter pattern="A.*\.xml" caseSensitive="false"/>
</file:inbound-endpoint>
<mulexml:xslt-transformer xsl-file="C:\Users\mark.gordon\AnypointStudio\workspace\timesheets\Stylesheets\ts-sp-to-cpa.xsl" maxIdleTransformers="2" maxActiveTransformers="5" doc:name="XSLT"/>
<set-attachment attachmentName="timesheet" value="#[payload]" contentType="text/xml" doc:name="Attachment"/>
<http:request config-ref="HTTP_Request_Configuration1" path="main" method="POST" doc:name="HTTP" followRedirects="true" responseTimeout="300">
<http:request-builder>
</http:request-builder>
</http:request>
</flow>
Later on I will be transforming the XML using XSLT before posting it, but I've stripped that out since I can't even get it to post without that!
With the code as posted I get the following exception:
Message : Error sending HTTP request. Message payload is of type: byte[]
Code : MULE_ERROR--2

Exception stack is:
