Re: SOAP over HTTPS

[Keisuke Miyako via 4D_Tech]

included in 4D 2004 is an older (0.9.8 or thereabouts) version of OpenSSL,
so it is not capable of elevating to TLS 1.2 which is the default minimum for 
v17.

https://blog.4d.com/more-security-for-your-4d-server/

of course you could lower the security level but that's probably the wrong way 
to look at it.

things have changed a lot since 2004; I recently had to bring back a Snow 
Leopard machine from hibernation, turns out almost all https sites are 
inaccessible using Safari or the command line curl.

So I can only assume that for whatever reason HTTPS support never existed in 
that version.

Re: SOAP over HTTPS

[Douglas Cryer via 4D_Tech]

Keisuke and Lutz,

Thank you again for your comments.  I have now worked out what is not working...

I was dumb enough to think that all SOAP clients would be equal.  In fact when 
I tried from SOAPUI the HTTTPS call worked fine.  When I tried from 4D v17 the 
HTTPS call also worked fine.

My original call that was failing was being made from 4D 2004 system which just 
fails.  So I can only assume that for whatever reason HTTPS support never 
existed in that version.

This is really not a problem as this system is weeks away from it's v17 release.

Regards,  Dougie

RE: SOAP over HTTPS

[Epperlein, Lutz (agendo) via 4D_Tech]

Sorry, I was bit too fast with my answer. Especially about the configuration of 
the web service on the side of 4D. This was my from remembering of using a 4D 
web service for testing purposes in the past. At this time we built this test 
service as a mockup of another external web service, that should be used in 
production later. But as I said it was some time ago, so my assumption to 
configure a hardcoded endpoint in 4D was wrong.

I did a small test now, there wasn't any problem accessing the 4d web service 
via https. The mentioned endpoint is offered correctly by 4D. E.g. if you 
access an URL https://my.superwebservice/4dwsdl then this endpoint can be found 
within the wsdl. Accessing the wsdl using the 4d web services assistant works 
without any problem.
This was tested with 4D v16 and V17.

Keisuke and Lutz,

Thank you for your comments.

Lutz said:
"is not only necessary to access the endpoint with https:// you have to offer 
the service as a https:// service, e.g. you have to adjust the settings in 4D 
to modify the wsdl in the proper way."

This sounds like the key, so I will look into that.  Any clues on what this 
involves as the WSDL is automatically generated by 4D and I do not see general 
controls for SOAP and https settings like you have for the web server.

Re: SOAP over HTTPS

[Keisuke Miyako via 4D_Tech]

sounds like you have done everything right. does the URL include the port 
number, or is the server published via port other than 443?
