A Web Service distribution system with the standard combination of a general protocol for the transporting and handling of data entities to and from Web stations, e.g. SOAP layered over HTTP, including means for detecting fault conditions in these general protocol transport and handling means with standard Web Services Description Language (WSDL) definitions for accessing specific Web Services for said data entities. There are standard processes for detecting fault conditions in said WSDL combined with routines responsive to the detection of WSDL fault conditions for sending WSDL fault message data to selected applications at display stations. There is prohibition of the sending of general protocol fault message data (e.g. SOAP message data) detected in the transport and handling of data entities for which entities Web Services are to be accessed combined with routines for converting the fault messages based on general protocol fault data into WSDL message data during the access of such Web Services, whereby said converted data is sent as a WSDL defined fault message.
