It looks like a bit of stuff that the WSPG uses is currently marked as 
deprecated in commons-httpclient, which could be the cause of our 
problems here. I'll put working on this on my plate ASAP.

There seems to be a real problem with WebServiceProxyGenerator:

Hello out there,

I'm developing a webapp with cocoon-2.1m2 and want to use the wsproxy. 
but wsproxy doesn't work, instead it throws an 
IllegalArgumentException host parameter is null. the configuration 
is quite simple and should be correct - as far as the documentation is 
up to date.

map:generator name=wsproxy logger=webapp.wsproxy pool-grow=2 
pool-max=16 pool-min=2 
src=org.apache.cocoon.generation.WebServiceProxyGenerator/


[snip/]

so, what's going wrong here? i would be glad, if anybody could give an 
answer.


Well, Looking at the source to commons-httpclient at 
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/xref/org/apache/commons/httpclient/HttpConnection.html, 
it looks like the 'host' which is being passed to the constructor is 
null.  Obviously, it's very strange this is happening.  I'll try to dig 
into the WSPG code today and see if I find anything...

Does anybody know if commons-httpclient has changed recently?

Yeah, It's looking that way :(

I've noticed posts from other people asking about this, too -- no replies.

I'm a little short on time this afternoon, I'll try to dig into it tonight after class...

RE: problem with WebServiceProxyGenerator

2003-07-01 Thread Lenz, Evan
I have been periodically scanning the list for almost a year, hoping that
someone would take this bull by the horns, i.e. wsproxy in general. At SU
Law, we are currently supporting legacy ASP pages through use of the
HTMLGenerator and hard-coded GET params in sitemap.xmap. I have really been
looking forward to a better approach, especially since it would be nice to
just allow our Web developer to use her ASP skills to develop forms,
surveys, etc. (provided that they generate well-formed output) and know we
can integrate them into our Cocoon-based Web site in a solid and
maintenance-friendly way.

Other features needed to make WebServiceProxyGenerator feature-complete, at
least for us, include:

  * Remote HTTP authentication support
  * Reverse redirects, a la Apache's ProxyPassReverse directive [1]

Good luck to whomever tries to fix the issues with WebServiceProxyGenerator!
You can count me as another user eagerly awaiting to see progress in this
area.

Thanks,

A year?!  Yoink.  I had some mods to the WSPG a while ago and I know it was working correctly.  I 
don't think they were that long ago, though.

least for us, include:
  * Remote HTTP authentication support
  * Reverse redirects, a la Apache's ProxyPassReverse directive [1]
I do know the HttpProxyGenerator was intended as a replacement for the WSPG, but as previous posts 
have mentioned, the newer proxygenerator doesn't contain all of the functionality of the WSPG yet. 
It would be nice to get all of the functionality merged into one nice component (which has the added 
bonus of working correctly ;) )

Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that it had been completely broken for a year,
but just that for whatever reason it has never been up to snuff for what we
wanted to use it for.

Yes, that sounds good to me!
