Hi Pete,

Did you by change read these two documents?

The big ONE:

Installation: http://ws.apache.org/axis/java/install.html

Then this one: http://ws.apache.org/axis/java/user-guide.html

If by chance you have not I recommend you take some time to go through these. There is indeed a bit of reading here but well worth the time. It was for me anyway.

It is a challenge to help you out at this point not knowing exactly what you have and have not done by way of configuration. So it is important that you take some time and work through these two documents. They are really good documents and someone spent a great deal of time on them to make them so. If you still have problems after following these, drop a line back here.

I have an axis application that I created (in MyEclipse) and run on my local PC. I created a .net client application that uses SOAP, again on my local machine using VS2005, and I tested it and it works great.

I then wanted to test the .net client from another machine on the network. I changed the WSDL file to use the actual address of the PC running tomcat from 'localhost' so that now the address is the local address of the machine. Again, I tested the client locally and it works.

So I deployed the client application to another PC on the network. When I run client application I get a "The request failed with HTTP status 404: /SOAServices/services/DBIO" error. So, I decided to run the URL from a browser and see what I got. I get: "DBIO Hi there, this is an AXIS service! Perhaps there will be a form for invoking the service here... "

So that tells me that the server is available and is happy with the URL (which I copied and pasted from the WSDL file so I know it is accurate). I get a very similar message from a client I wrote in RPGLE (IBM midrange hardware running i5/OS) so I think it has to do with a configuration issue at the server, although I can't say for sure.

So the questions are: What should I do next to determine what is causing the error? What is the most like cause? Is there a tool I can use to view the request that Axis receives os perhaps see that HTTP request being sent? I have been working on this problem all morning (and Googling like crazy) and haven't found a solution.

Thanks.

Pete Helgren
