Re: [U2] SOAP Request via an HTTPS call
From:Steve Long I am trying to submit a SOAP request via a secure connection, and have been unsuccessful so far. We are able to create the secure connection, but it is failing on the SOAP request at the IIS server with a fault error. Does anyone have an example they can provide for submitting SOAP calls in this manner? You didn't mention your DBMS, OS, or the technology being used for the SOAP client. I'm guessing you're using CallHTTP. Web Service faults are usually the result of something wrong with your XML, probably a data type issue, and often related to arrays, strongly typed complex objects, or differences in the definition of data types like Float, Decimal, Long, etc. The issues can be resolved with more careful crafting of the outbound XML. If your calling from Windows then the easiest solution is to generate a client off of the server WSDL, save the client as a ..exe, then SH to execute the new web service client. I have a video which demonstrates this on my website: remove.nospam.pleaseNebula-RnD.com/products/gallery.htm You can create this solution in just a few minutes and then you're done with it - or you can struggle for days to get CallHttp to do it for you. Take your pick. Shelling out like that isn't the most performant approach, but you're using a web service in the first place and performance can't be that great a concern. Please let us know if any of this helps. These tips can be crafted to suit various environments.

Re: [U2] SOAP Request via an HTTPS call
Sorry, we are using Unidata. The SOAP requests work fine outside of HTTPS. What we are trying to do is implement a HTTPS call to submit the SOAP. Based on previous info I have received, we are implementing the HTTPS via CallHTTP. We are able to establish the SSL connection with a valid certificate, so that is not the problem. The previous info I received showed setting the HTTP headers in the CallHTTP to SOAPAction passing the URL. I have attempted to do this, as well as passing the Namespace\SoapAction, appending this on the URL, etc, and IIS consistently gives a fault error stating it did not recognize the value of SOAPAction. When I pass just the namespace and action as I do with a standard SOAP request, it give me an HTTP.STATUS of invalid media type. Again, the XML work fine outside of the CallHTTP.

Re: [U2] End of Month date routine
I changed Marco's code slightly using Oconv to make it more clear what DD is doing and make it more generic I'm also adding 40 instead of 32 to make it clear that we don't care how much we are adding as long as it's between 32 and 57 To make it clear what this is doing, we are taking the internal date, and subtracting from that the day number on which we are running. This will *always* give you the last day of the previous month. Always. Then we add enough to jump us into the next month anywhere, doesn't matter at all. And then do the same trick again, which will *always* give you the last day of the month in which you are running This is a fantastic bit of magic.

Re: [U2] End of Month date routine
Dave Laansma took a more generic approach which does not require knowledge of the date format - hence I thought it preferable. My style would move the addition and subtraction around as below I assumed one would want the last day of the month for any called date otherwise uncomment line 2 SUBROUTINE GET.EOM(IDAY) *IDAY = DATE() THIS = OCONV(IDAY,'DM') LOOP IDAY += 1 UNTIL OCONV(IDAY,'DM') NE THIS REPEAT IDAY -= 1 RETURN Code snippets are fun - copyright not so much.

Re: [U2] Uniobjects for Java and Domino 8
Hi John, On Fri, Dec 2, 2011 at 10:01 AM, John Hester jhes...@momtex.com wrote: We've been using UOJ with WebSphere App Server since around 2003. Not quite the same as Domino, I realize, but at least under the same IBM Java middleware umbrella. I can't offer a lot the way of best practices, but I can say that the combination is robust and trouble-free. This is more OS related, but if you're connecting to or from a linux box you need to make sure the LANG environment variable is set correctly. The RedHat default is incorrect for UOJ (at least up to EL 5) and will result in MV delimiters being incorrectly translated into other ascii characters. RedHat EL 5 stores the LANG value in /etc/sysconfig/i18n and the official setting I was given by IBM is en_US.iso885915. The above has caused me many problems in both web applications and running UOJ on mobile devices. I got a debugger out and went through what is happening, it appears UOJ is using deprecated routines within java and writing invalid data to the udcs server. The deprecated routines are using the systems character encoding to convert 16bit java characters to 8bit bytes. As the host systems character encoding is variable thus different data will be sent to the server depending on what location and operating system is used. Roughly the uniobjects conversion routines grab the java system property file.encoding which is meant for reading and writing files and use it directly and indirectly to write data to the socket. Quick fix is on the java command line -Dfile.encoding=iso8859_1 Warning: once java program is running ie System.setProperty(file.encoding,iso8859_1) does not work as a bunch of system level stuff is cached on startup. The above quick fix has many bad side effects as the java process now has the wrong character encoding to read and write files on the local system and has caused me issues in third party libraries which expect to be able to read and write files correctly. ie my web server should be emitting utf8 for maximum compatibility but is putting out iso8859_1 for most files thanks to this quick fix It would be better for the rocket engineers to decide on a character encoding to talk to the server with and set it as a separate define(or hard code it maybe), according to oracle the basic encodings below should be available on most jvms : http://docs.oracle.com/javase/1.3/docs/guide/intl/encoding.doc.html ___ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
