Re: Help with WebServices

[Scott Klement <sk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Connie,

I did see your messages on RPG400-L as well as this one, and 
unfortunately, I don't feel that I have enough information to help you.  
Every web service is different, and the error you are getting is not 
coming from HTTPAPI, it is coming from the web service server.  (The 
server sends the error to HTTPAPI, which in turn copies it back to you.)

Please create a debug/trace file so I can see some more detailed 
information, and post it here.   Also, since it sounds like you're using 
SOAP, please provide the WSDL (or a link to it) so we can see what is 
expected for this service.

To create the debug/trace, add a line like the following to the start of 
your program and recompile/run:

     callp http_debug(*on);

This will create a file named /tmp/httpapi_debug.txt.  Please attach 
that file to a reply to this message so I can see it.  (and the WSDL as 
well, or provide a link to the WSDL).

Thanks!
