Hi
I`m having some difficulties that hopefully somebody here could assist me with.
I`m hand-coding a request to a SOAP service and I can`t get it working with
AOLserver`s ns_httppost command, but it works fine using sockets. I`m wondering
could it be some headers or encoding that ns_httppost does? Or maybe a timeout?
I`ve seen some articles on the web that suggest putting \r\n between the
headers and the body (which you can see in the sockets example) - does
ns_httppost automatically do that for me? If not how would I do it?
I`m using AOLserver 4.0.10
Here`s the code using ns_httppost that doesn`t work - just returns empty string:
set result ""
set soap_request {<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><soap:Envelope
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/";><soap:Body><GetQuote
xmlns="http://www.webserviceX.NET/";><symbol>GOOG</symbol></GetQuote></soap:Body></soap:Envelope>}
set type "text/xml"
set rqset [ns_set new rqset]
ns_set put $rqset SOAPAction "http://www.webserviceX.NET/GetQuote";
set qsset [ns_set new qsset]
ns_set put $qsset Message $soap_request
set cmd {set page [ns_httppost "http://www.webserviceX.NET/stockquote.asmx";
$rqset $qsset $type ]}
if {[catch $cmd errmsg]} {
set result $errmsg
} else {
set result $page
}
ns_return 200 text/plain $result
And here`s the sockets program (based on some fine code written by Tom Jackson)
- this works perfectly (abeit it takes a while to come back):
set SOAP {<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/";>
<soap:Body>
<GetQuote xmlns="http://www.webserviceX.NET/";>
<symbol>GOOG</symbol>
</GetQuote>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>}
set length [string length $SOAP]
set headers ""
set fds [ns_sockopen www.webserviceX.NET 80]
set rid [lindex $fds 0]
set wid [lindex $fds 1]
puts $wid "POST /stockquote.asmx HTTP/1.1
Host: www.webservicex.net
Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8
Content-Length: $length
SOAPAction: \"http://www.webserviceX.NET/GetQuote\";
$SOAP"
flush $wid
while {[set line [string trim [gets $rid]]] != ""} {
lappend headers $line
}
set page [read $rid]
close $rid
close $wid
ns_return 200 text/plain "
Sent:
POST /stockquote.asmx HTTP/1.1
Host: www.webservicex.net
Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8
Content-Length: $length
SOAPAction: \"http://www.webserviceX.NET/GetQuote\";
$SOAP
Received:
[join $headers "\n"]\n\n$page"
Any suggestions?
Many thanks,
Brian
