Well, for starters, simplify the invocation and try the <cfinvoke> with hard-coded parameters. Also, try a simple <cfinvoke> (as local CFC and as a Web Service) on that remote computer.
Based on what works and what does not you'll work out the next step. --- Ben -----Original Message----- From: Les Mizzell [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, December 11, 2006 9:32 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Help with a webservice not getting passed variables please! Tearing my hair out and please need just a touch of help. Basically, I need to share a huge database between two servers. Here's what I've got. 1. website with a login form on one server. (SiteA) 2. Website with database and needed stuff on another server halfway around the planet. (SiteB) So, on SiteA is my login form with "username" and "password" fields. I need to check this against the database on another site. So, on my form processing page I've got: <cfinvoke webservice="www.MyRemoteSite/siteA_process.cfc?wsdl" method="getLOGIN" returnvariable="getLOGIN" username="#form.username#" password="#form.password#" > On "siteA_process.cfc", which is on SiteB, I've got the function set up: <cffunction name="getLOGIN" access="remote" returntype="query"> <cfargument name="username" type="string" required="true"/> <cfargument name="password" type="string" required="true"/> <cfquery name="getLOGIN"> SELECT userNAME, userPASS, customerNUMBER FROM ClientInfo WHERE userNAME = (#arguments.username#) AND userPASS = (#arguments.password#) </cfquery> <cfreturn getLOGIN> </cffunction> When I run this I get an error: [coldfusion.runtime.MissingArgumentException : The parameter USERNAME to function getLOGIN is required but was not passed in.] I've double checked my form names: <input id="username" name="username" type="text" /> <input id="password" name="password" type="text" /> Look right to me. Why is the username not getting passed? The entiretly of SiteA is completely dependant of using web services to get/put/share data over to the database on SiteB. Heck, if I can't even get the stupid login form to work, I'm in big trouble. As a test, a simple query function *does* work. Variables just don't seem to be getting passed. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Create robust enterprise, web RIAs.
