Hi Hans, The commonly used term, "web service", can be a bit misleading since not all services accessible over the web (internet) are necessarily served by a _web_ server. The gb.xml.rpc component is not designed to run 'through' a web server in the same manner that PHP web services do. This means that, in this case, the RPC service cannot be called simply by fetching a file. The service must _first_ be started on whatever machine is acting as the server. Then, a request can be made to the service, already listening on a specific port, by making a call to it in the form of http://ip_address:port. (PHP scripts must be executed by a web server which means the server is already running.) If you are wanting to be able to access an actual web service (PHP-style), then I believe you are using the wrong component(s). In that case, you should probably use gb.web for the server side and gb.net.curl's HttpClient for the client side. Your client/server application does indeed work just fine (even without gb.web and gb.net.curl), provided the server is started prior to making the call. -- Lee ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Gambas-user mailing list Gambas-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gambas-user
