Hi,

The difference you mentioned couldn't be the root cause, could you send
the complete soap message is being sent to the publisher for both the
production and development.
I guess there is problem with the message passed to publisher which is
not accepting and throwing exception.

Subject: Prod ARS 7.0.1 p006 cannot consume a webservice

hi all, we are having a critical Production issue regarding Remedy
consuming a webservice and was hoping someone here can help us.

we are using
ARS 7.0.1 p006
MT 7.0.1 p006
AR Admin 7.0.1 p006

we have a filter that we created in a Dev server sometime ago that
consumes an external webservice. this works just fine and now we are
ready to move this filter to Production. we did and lo and behold, the
filter does not work. no problems with permission, proxy settings and
all, but we keep getting issues:

1) takes too long for the call to respond when the filter is fired.
2) when it does respond, we get either:
  a) timeout error on the database (the database takes too long to
respond)
  b) "ARERR [9130] An exception occurred from the WebService class :
Unknown Error"

as a test, I created a filter that calls to a public webservice found
in the BMC Developer Network

http://ws.cdyne.com/ip2geo/ip2geo.asmx?wsdl

and mapped the input and output fields to our test form in production.
then I created a record on the form that fires a filter calling that
webservice. I tested this same script in our devel server and I can
consume that same webservice just fine. but errors out in production.

our filter log shows this:

> Checking IP2Geo (500)
>    --> Passed -- perform actions
>         0: Set Fields <-- this is where the web service is called
*/Stop filter processing
>               An exception occurred from the WebService class
>               Unknown Error
> **** Error while performing filter action

we did a arplugin log compare at both times and here's what we saw:

we noticed that on our Dev, the line:

<FINE> URL Auth User = null
<FINE> URL Auth Password = <hidden>

is not getting called (does not appear in the log), while in Prod this
appears in the log. another significant difference is that when the
web service is called, the logs show:

DEV - it used ROOT as the element

<FINE> soapInputDocument = <ROOT xmlns="urn:IP2Geo" xmlns:ns1="http://
ws.cdyne.com/IP2Geo" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";>
<ns1:ipAddress>206.190.60.37</ns1:ipAddress>
<ns1:licenseKey/>
</ROOT>

while in:

PROD - there is an appended text "ns0:" before ROOT

<FINE> soapInputDocument = <ns0:ROOT xmlns:ns0="urn:IP2Geo"
xmlns:ns1="http://ws.cdyne.com/IP2Geo"; xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/
2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";>
<ns1:ipAddress>149.122.21.107</ns1:ipAddress>
<ns1:licenseKey/>
</ns0:ROOT>

can this difference be the root cause on why the exact same filter
calling the same webservice on different servers (with the same ARS
version, patch, OS, DB, Mid-Tier) is giving us different results on
our Production server compared to our Devel server? does anyone have
any idea on what could be causing this on our Production server?

any help is greatly appreciated!!!
