I was under the impression that a SOAP server should be able to
execute multiple methods in a single SOAP call, but I do not seem
to get it working.

This code (java/SAAJ)

String namespace = "http://mynamespace";;
String endpoint = "http://myserver/myservice";;
MessageFactory mf = MessageFactory.newInstance();
SOAPMessage msg = mf.createMessage();
SOAPBody body = msg.getSOAPBody();
SOAPFactory soapFactory = SOAPFactory.newInstance();
body.addBodyElement(soapFactory.createName(
                                "GetServerVersion","ns1", namespace));
body.addBodyElement(soapFactory.createName(
                                "GetLocation","ns1", namespace));
SOAPConnectionFactory cf = SOAPConnectionFactory.newInstance();
SOAPConnection connection = cf.createConnection();
SOAPMessage reply = connection.call(msg, endpoint);

gets me this SOAP message:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope
xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/";>
<SOAP-ENV:Header/>
<SOAP-ENV:Body>
<ns1:GetServerVersion xmlns:ns1="http://mynamespace"/>
<ns1:GetLocation xmlns:ns1="http://mynamespace"/>
</SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

But my server only executes the first method.
Should I do something different in my client, or is this completely
impossible...?

For some reason, I thought that a document style
SOAP service call could include multiple method calls. While trying to get
it working, I started looking in the SOAP specs again, and do not realy
find convining evidence in favor or against my assumption. I also do not
remember why I thought this would be possible, I
suspect having read this in an early SOAP draft document or so...
