Axis: 1.5 built from
source
Platform: Red Hat
Enterprise Linux AS release 3 (Taroon Update 5) Kernel 2.4.21-32.EL on an
i686
Compiler: gcc 3.2.3
20030502
Web server: Apache
2052
I configured apache
as directed in the documentation and have been able to run samples on the Linux
server from the command line. From Visual Studio, I am able to
create a web reference by entering the url of the wsdl file for the calculator
sample. I placed this wsdl file in the document_root directory. Visual Studio
correctly discovers the web service api and allows me to create a web reference
that I can then use in the VB code. When I try to make a call to the web service, however, the call fails with
the error code 405. I used ethereal to trace traffic from the client machine to
the web server and observed that no message was sent. I am a complete XML and
wsdl novice. I looked at the wsdl and noticed numerous instances of the string
'localhost'. I replaced these with the host name of the Linux server. This
changed the error but still there was no traffic to the Linux server. I
previously had installed the Axis Java toolkit (1.3) and was able to create the
web service reference and successfully make the call to the GetQuote service.
I'm not sure what I need to do here. Do I need to modify the wsdl for the
calculator sample to get it to work?
In the end, of
course, I need to create a web service to accomplish the goals of my current
project. We will use the created web service to replace an existing interprocess
communication library that is not thread-safe. I understand that the code
generation tool, WSDL2Ws, will generate C++ stubs from wsdl, so it seems that
my initial task will be to create the proper wsdl for the service I am
creating. Thus, I need to learn enough XML and wsdl to accomplish this task. Is
this correct?
