It almost certainly would help if I had any administrative access to the
server, or indeed any access other than with a basic brower and user
privileges only to open and resolve incidents, however sadly this is not the
case.

It seems like the diagnostics provided by Web Services out of the box are
just as cryptic as those with BackChannel? At least with BackChannel I was
able to get an incident number separately from the request that actually
failed. Also that's a clue that getting an INC# isn't any indication of
successful incident creation.

Any suggestions where to go from here appreciated, I'm just about ready to
give up. The chances of altering the configuration of the server to improve
the diagnostics are next to nil (politics and beaurocracy).


Mark,

You can turn on WebService's logs on the Mid-Tier level to see some
more details about the Web Services interactions. However, if you are
in fact getting an Incident number back, then I would start with
watching Server side Filter logs first. After all in order for the
number to exist the data had to hit the DB. So it sounds like it is
all getting there.

Maybe you have a permissions problem with the incident? ( Did you try
to find that incident as an admin user? )

Maybe there is some workflow that is also deleting the record after it
is created?

Hope that helps.
