Access/Invoke web service from browser

  • 1.  Access/Invoke web service from browser

    Posted Mon July 17, 2006 04:28 PM

    Hi

    I Have made a simple service and generated a wsdl file with the following properties:

    Host: localhost
    Port: 5555
    Target namespace: [url]http://localhost/[/url]
    Protocol: SOAP-RPC
    Transport: HTTP

    My service is in the folder “requestPerson.Services” and is called “GetPrivateCustomerRQ”.

    How can I access the web service from my browser?
    I have tried the following address but i wont work:

    http://localhost:5555/requestPerson.Services/GetPrivateCustomerRQ

    Thanks in advance

    Regards
    Mikael

    Web services are not invoked from a web browser. You need to create a soap message and post it to http://localhost:5555/soap/rpc to invoke it. You can write a simple Flow service to do this using pub.client:soapRPC.

    Also, don’t use soapRPC for anything beyond experimentation due to interoperability challenges discussed elsewhere in the web services forum.

    Read the SOAP Programmer’s Guide and Web Services Developer’s Guide before more testing, if you have not already done so.
