Dave, Thanks Dave. Appreciate you troubleshooting this one with me. Say more. Are you thinking that Hostek blocks the consumption of web services? as for access to the home setup, it hosts my personal site (casadiablo.homeip.net) which I can reach just fine from anywhere. Which is only to say that I don't think it's an "incoming" firewall issue on the home side. I do have a ticket into Hostek just to see if there is something there. How would you suggest I personally test the ability for Hostek to reach into the home server? ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:351938 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

I am presuming you are running dev edition of cf on your local machine,
which has IP restrictions which is probably the cause.

Re: Web Services & CERT
Well the web service is on an Intranet but will be accesible by other servers within the agency. According to the docs (other developer is no longer here), the cfinvoke command was not utilizing the username/pass auth method. The server has Anonymous Access turned off since it is internal. I can call it directly but when setting it up in CFADMIN, it throws the error mentioned previously. So I am at a loss right now. (Still learning all the security meassures and locked down items).

How you can access the web service is entirely controlled by the configuration of the server hosting the web service.

Again, I apologize, but there seems to be something here that I'm just missing. This all stems from a web service that I'm trying to access that's just not returning ANYTHING that resembles the results I'm expecting. So I decided to just try and write my own "web service" that could be invoked remotely and return live data. I got that working really easily, but then realized that I was just returning CF "objects" (structs, arrays, query objects) that were fine in CF, but would be worthless to anyone else. That's when I started to realize that maybe there's a problem with the form of the data that this web service was returning, and I started down this road...

Re: Just a question/discussion point RE: Web services..
I don't know why this myth is perpetuating. I've written simple c# code to loop through a query returned from a CF webservice. It was based on something I found with Google and I see others have since blogged the same solution: http://www.firemoss.com/blog/index.cfm?mode=entry&entry=3A325BDD-E081-2BAC-695618079678B316 PHP should be straightforward too. The "issue" is that there isn't a single native object that corresponds to a CF querybean type. So what? Looping through the array that a querybean represents is just a tiny bit more work. Write a function to do it and it's fixed forever. On 3/23/07, Jeff Small <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Okay, so I write a CFC.

You'd have a CFC that contains the web service method(s), and that CFC would use another CFC to define the return value datatype. The CFC example that I included would be the latter one, which just contains CFPROPERTY tags.

If you define custom objects as described previously, and use those in place of structures, those will be properly represented in SOAP.

RE: Just a question/discussion point RE: Web services..
XML is the right answer. I'm not sure how well WDDX is supported across platforms, I know it was an open standard, but I remember something about there being version differences. If it's all caught up you could simply serialize it using the built in WDDX functions and pass it that way. Or you could just use the XML functions in CF to create your own model that works with the data you're transferring. -Original Message- From: Jeff Small [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, March 23, 2007 10:05 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Just a question/discussion point RE: Web services..

RE: Web services being called by non cf source
Solved it. It is some screwed up problem with the encoding that AXIS does. For whatever reason the encoding method is changed from XSD to SOAPENC after calling an external web service. Upgrading to 7.0.2 resolves this, presumably due to an updated AXIS driver.

RE: Web services being called by non cf source
Having been monitoring the http traffic more, I have noticed this.

RE: Web services being called by non cf source
No, otherwise the toolbar would never work. There is no way a cfm page on a server can access the clients firewall setitngs. I think you don't quite understand the scenario. We have mywebservice.cfc, which is called by the toolbar, all workds fine. This toolbar is used by hundreds of different people on different pc's in different locations. We then have callremoteservice.cfm, this page has nothing to do with the above one. IT invokes another webservice on another site that is nothing to do with us. When callremoteservice.cfm is run, it somehow breaks mywebservice.cfc and the toolbar can no longer get a response from it. I have been using a http packet sniffer to watch what happens, and the result is this. The toolbar will be calling mywebservice.cfc After callremoteservice.cfm is executed The sniffer then shows that the url being called by the toolbar changes to mywebservice.cfc?wsdl, and thus the response it gets back is the WSDL schema, and the cfc never executes. The toolbar itself doesn't change the url, as it would have no knowledge of callremoteservice.cfm and if it has been executed. So I'm wondering if CF is somehow redirecting or something?

RE: Web services being called by non cf source
Ah ok. Well I'll try that. We have found the cause of the problem, but why is still a mystery. It seems that a new cfm file was deployed, which connects to an external non cf web service to collect some data. Whenever this file is executed it somehow screws up OUR web service, but only when the toolbar calls it, we can still call our web service via a CF page just fine.

Re: Web Services choke on HTTP Compression?
Thanks, Steven! That is brilliant. I guess I knew that ColdFusion just used the WSDL to generate the stub objects, but I didn't know about the server port element tying it to the actual webservice server. Saving the WSDL to my local machine works like a charm. The only weirdness is that our business partner swears that they don't use HTTP compression on the server. Maybe its just an incompatibility with ColdFusion, Web Services and SSL. Thanks Agan! ~| Create robust enterprise, web RIAs.

RE: Web Services choke on HTTP Compression?
See if you can get the WSDL via CFHTTP first. If the remote webserver is compression the server response containing the wsdl, then perhaps this will help with the CFHTTP call: http://www.talkingtree.com/blog/index.cfm/2004/7/28/20040729 Then, if successful, save the WSDL locally. Since the WSDL contains a ServicePort property near the bottom of the file you will be able to put the local web URI of the wsdl into the CFINVOKE tag, and the ServicePort will be used to run the web service. The WSDL is only used to create a local stub for ColdFusion. It doesn't matter where the WSDL is, so long as the ServicePort reference the actual location of the working web service. The local stub has all the right methods invocations and it has the right webservice location from the ServicePort. In psuedo code: [cfhttp url="http://www.remoteserver.com/dosomething.wsdl";] [cffile file="C:\inetpub\wwwroot\remoteServer_doSomething.wsdl" output="#cfhttp.filecontent#"] [cfinvoke webservice="http://localhost/remoteServer_doSomething.wsdl"; method="foo" result="actualWebServiceResult"] How's that? -Steven Erat > -Original Message- > From: Michael Schreiber [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, December 11, 2006 3:51 PM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: Web Services choke on HTTP Compression? > > When I try to call a web service from one of our business > partners, I get the error: java.util.zip.ZipException: > unknown compression method.

Re: Web services...
This works for me in CFMX7.02. I see your failure using CFMX6.1, which uses an earlier version of Axis. My current tests fail, seemingly because authentication is now required. I would suggest trying to call using cfhttp. Alternatively, you could create and use java stubs to call this service. See http://www.adobe.com/go/ea87b65.

RE: Web Services - Not for production or development
In ColdFusion MX 6.1 this watermark could be avoided by setting the content type with CFCONTENT in pages where the watermark broke the generated content, but in CFMX 7 there is no such workaround. Since the DevNet edition is meant for development/QA only, you could remove the existing DevNet serial number for the ColdFusion MX 7 installation and it will automatically become the free Developer's Edition which does not produce the watermark but has an IP restriction to localhost and 2 other IP addresses. To change the edition from DevNet to Developer: Stop ColdFusion MX server Backup $CFHOME/lib/license.properties Edit the original $CFHOME/lib/license.properties Find the line with the serial number, such as "sn=CXX7NN-N-N-NN" Remove everything on that line after "sn=" (remove the serial number actually) Save the file Start ColdFusion server Check System Information page in CF Admin to confirm that it is Developer Edition Again, the Developer Edition has full Enterprise features, but it has an IP restriction that DevNet did not.

Re: Web services / parameter / headache
I think that error means there isn't a dummy wsdl service.
Try:
ws = CreateObject("webservice","
http://www.weather.gov/forecasts/xml/SOAP_server/ndfdXMLserver.php?wsdl";);
NDFDgenResponse = ws.NDFDgenByDay(latitude=38.99,longitude=-77.99
,format='24+hourly',startdate='2006-06-27',numDays=7);
And see what that does.

Re: Web services / parameter / headache
Hi Paul,
Thanks for the tips. Unfortunately still no luck.
I have investigated and messed around some more and I just can't figure this
one out. If there are any web services experts out there please show yourself!!!
Just to prove that the problem doesn't lie with the producer of the web service
I've tried consuming a simple web service here's the code:
---
ws =
CreateObject("webservice","http://www.weather.gov/forecasts/xml/SOAP_server/ndfdXMLserver.php?wsdl";);
NDFDgenResponse =
ws.NDFDgen(JavaCast('double',38.99),JavaCast('double',-77.99),JavaCast('string','time-series'),DateFormat('2004-01-01','mm/dd/
hh:ss'),DateFormat('2010-06-26','mm/dd/ hh:ss'));
---
ANd here's the error:
---
Web service operation "NDFDgen" with parameters
{38.99,-77.99,time-series,01/01/2004 12:00,06/26/2010 12:00} could not be found.
---
I'm certain that the problem here is how I'm passing in parameters. Weather it
be a complex type or a date or whatever, I'm doing something wrong!
Any ideas... anyone??!?!?!?

try making countriesCovered an array.
countriesCovered=listToArray("FR");
and maybe for good measure a java array:
countriesCovered=countriesCovered.toArray();

RE: Web services and cfinvoke
I was assuming you could build the service "around" the existing
wsdl. In the babelfish examples in the documentation cfinvoke calls a
wsdl file.
#foo#
Now, I only assume that on the altavista side, the wsdl file itself
does not do the translation, but is passed to a cgi. And I assumed
the cgi would be the one specified in soap:address location.
And on a somewhat related note. I'm still don't understand how I
place the XML that is sent to the service into a variable for
reading. The service is requested initially from the end user's
computer and sends text/xml, not form variables, so I can't grab the
xml with form.xml or whatnot.

None of the above, the beauty of a CF web service is that you don't need to
work this hard. You create a CFC that is going to be a web service. You do
this by taking the incredible hard task of putting access="remote" as a
parameter into one or more of the functions {aka methods} of the CFC. Then the

You could consume this web service with some other piece of ColdFusion with a

But from what I understand, is that you would not be writing this part, since
the QuickBooks application is going to consume the web service. I would
presume somewhere in the configuration that allows QuickBooks to consume a web
service, you would provide an URI to your CFC web service to be consumed.
What you showed as an example wsdl file is what I presume the QuickBooks
application is expecting to see from a web service. So you just need to write
your web service CFC to provide a wsdl that meets these expectations.

RE: Web services and cfinvoke
So to double check, you are building a web service that will be contacted by the QuickBooks application using the WSDL like the example from you link? If this is so, then you are expected to create a CFC running as remote that will return a wsdl matching the specification. In other words have functions matching the expected functions in the wsdl accepting the parameters defined in the wsdl and returning the data expected in the wsdl. Then you would provide the URI to this cfc?wsdl file in QuickBooks that defines the web service it is looking for. I can't help you much beyond this basic understanding on my part. Unless my basic assumption of you building this web service for the QuickBooks to connect to is wrong. If you are consuming a web service with ColdFusion then that is completely different.
