Jacques I am trying to figure out how to use OFBiz web services through SOAP using C# (.NET 2.0 Visual Studio 2005). I was wondering if this is a know issue? Any kind of direction on how I can fix this will be great? There are several things I tried to do unsuccessfully. I created a simple Ofbiz Service that takes three string arguments and return one string. 1) When I try to add Web Reference using WSE 3.0 to my .NET project, the auto generated proxy has the following error // CODEGEN: The operation binding 'addWorkflowStep' from namespace 'http://www.ofbiz.org/service/' was ignored. Specifying a type for use=literal messages is not supported. and it doesn't contain the code for the actual web service invocation 2) I tried to modify the WSDL (on the local file system) and added the Web Reference using the Modified wsdl, first I got the following error when I tried to contact the service System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: Possible SOAP version mismatch: Envelope namespace http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/ was unexpected. Expecting http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/. at System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol.ReadResponse(SoapCl ientMessage message, WebResponse response, Stream responseStream, Boolean asyncCall) at System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol.Invoke(String methodName, Object[] parameters) at SimpleConsoleClient.WF.addWorkflowStep.CalladdWorkflowStep(String id, String applicationId) in C:\DocumentsandSettings\FPAdmin\Desktop\SRX0703 07601425_Maria\SimpleConsoleClient\SimpleConsoleClient\Web References\WF\Reference.cs:line 79 at SimpleConsoleClient.Program.Display() in C:\Documents and Settings\FPAdmin\Desktop\SRX070307601425_Maria\SimpleConsoleClient\Simpl eConsoleClient\Program.cs:line 62 at SimpleConsoleClient.Program.DoWork(Trap action) in C:\Documents and Settings\FPAdmin\Desktop\SRX070307601425_Maria\SimpleConsoleClient\Simpl eConsoleClient\Program.cs:line 20 3) Modifying the proxy and the wsdl file some more I was able to call ofbiz service, (I tracked the packages and was able to see the request and the response), but I was not able to read the response back. I am keep getting object array of one element that is null.
