I am just not sure if it is something I am doing wrong or if there is something wrong with the web service. That is because I am just simply not that knowledgeable with web services. Here is where I am: I have tried it using cfinvoke, cfhttp, and cfscript. They are pretty much give me the same results. I tried it this way: https://dev.claimsws.zurichna.com/ERCClaims/ZNAERCClaims.asmx?wsdl"; method="ZNAping" username="FirstChoice" password="Vend0r04"> And I get this error here - http://dev.thinksys.com/zurich/ws1.cfm I also tried it this way (without the ?wsdl): https://dev.claimsws.zurichna.com/ERCClaims/ZNAERCClaims.asmx"; method="ZNAping" username="FirstChoice" password="Vend0r04"> And I get this error here - http://dev.thinksys.com/zurich/ws2.cfm I am just not sure what I am doing wrong. The document that the vendor provided says that it has to be done using HTTP SOAP method invocation. I am not sure how to do that. Any more help on this would be great.

Re: Consuming a Web Service with CF8
since the webservice is thru SSL, make sure the SSL certificate is valid and from a trusted CA. if it's not from a trusted CA, you'll have to import the cert into your CF server's trusted store. see http://www.coldfusionmuse.com/index.cfm/2005/01/29/keystore ~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;203748912;27390454;j Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:309547 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
Re: Consuming a Web Service with CF8
You probably need to add ?wsdl onto the end of your webservice URL. If you hit the URL you are passing in a browser, you are probably getting an error message. Try https://devurl.asmx?wsdl in your browser and see if you get the WSDL. That is what CF needs. ~Brad - Original Message - From: "Steve Sequenzia" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>> I have been trying to consume it using cfinvoke like this: > > https://devurl.asmx"; > method = "ZNAPing" > returnVariable = "getBack" > username="username" > password="password"> > > #getBack# > > I am getting this error when I run it: > > Unable to parse WSDL as an XML document. > Parsing error: Fatal Error: URI=null Line=69: The element type "p" must be > terminated by the matching end-tag " > ~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;203748912;27390454;j Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:309545 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
RE: Consuming a Web Service with CF8
Steve, Try hitting it with CFHTTP and see what you get: https://devurl.asmx?method=ZNAPing";> See what you get. Maybe it's not written as a 'real' web service and simply just returns xml?

I am pretty much brand new to web services so please excuse my lack of knowledge. I have been working on a real small web app that allows the customer to input an invoice then it kicks out a csv of the invoices. My problem is that the vendor just added an additional step that requires that I check the invoice against a web service that will tell me if it is valid. The vendor gave me a basic document that lays out the web services. There are 2 web services one is just a ping and the other actually checks the invoice. I cannot get either of them to work and I am not sure why. Here is the info for the ping web service that they sent: ZNAPing Purpose:This web service was created to give an external customer an opportunity to verify availability of the ZNA Claims Web Services before calling in with actual request. Signature:string ZNAPing( void ); Input:NONE Result:string. Note:Successful return will contain an XML fragment with the following information 9/24/2004 8:24:58 AM 0.61 Client can parse this string to extract some information - element contains date and time of the call, element ââ¬â contains the version of the web services.
