Symptoms

BPEL Process using Ora:readBinaryfromFile Function always returns content type as text/plain instead of actual content type.

For example : Composite has a BPEL process which reads a pdf from a physical location by using Ora:readBinaryfromFile Function and later assigns it to an output variable in the BPEL response.

In the SOAP response we will get the content type as text/plain instead of application/pdf.

Changes
