Details are essential to a bug report. What does the error message say? What does the popup dialog say?

Re: [Flashcoders] Password Protected Webservice call - Help Please!
Sorry, when i call the webservice in flash it get an error
opening URL but i know its the right url for the webservice. When i call it in
a browser it pops open a dialog box asking for the username and password of the
webservice.
What i'm doing is very basic:
pWebServiceLocation = http://webserviceURL?WSDL;;
var pWebService:WebService = new WebService(pWebServiceLocation, new Log());
pWebService.onLoad = function() {
trace(tracking suceeded );
};
pWebService.onFault = function(fault) {
trace(SERVICE failed);
};
I think i have to send the username and password to the webservice in order to
call it but i'm not sure how to do that.
thanks,
Lori-

RE: [Flashcoders] Password Protected Webservice call - Help Please!
Is the URL the full URL to the Webserice? i.e. import mx.services.* myWS = new WebService(http://www.bankofamerica.com/WebService/myWebService.asmx?WS DL) Who owns the webservice? Can they tell you if additional user name and password variables need to be attached to your URL string when you call the service?

RE: [Flashcoders] Password Protected Webservice call - Help Please!
Also, I looked on the web, and the closest answer I could find was for a
PHP solution, where the username and password are part of the URL since
the HTTP directory may be password protected:
//PHP script
define('username', 'foo');
define('password', 'bar');
// This is location of the remote service
$client = new soapclient('http://' . username . : . password .
'@www.myserver.com/ws/server.php?wsdl', true);
$client-setCredentials(username,password);
So perhaps in Actionscript, something like:
var username=myusername; var password = mypassword;
var pWebService:WebService = new
WebService(http://+username+:+password+@www.myserver.com/myWS.asmx?
WSDL);
I'm just guessing though... not sure if that would work.

RE: [Flashcoders] Password Protected Webservice call - Help Please!
I've tried that, doesn't seem to work... i kept seeing some
references through google where you can use addheader() but i'm not sure how to
use it to add the username and password to the header...

Yes i do, i think the issue is that i don't know how to send the username and password to the Webservice so that it can authenticate me properly. I'm just not sure how this is done.

I found out he's doing windows authentication for the username and password. It's a .net webservice.

Re: [Flashcoders] Password Protected Webservice call - Help Please!
Seems to me like you could do the same thing without PHP at all. Just
use the username:[EMAIL PROTECTED] syntax in your AS when making the web
service call. The host browser should send along the login with the
request.

RE: [Flashcoders] Password Protected Webservice call - Help Please!
Yep, according to the programmer who is handling the webservice programming he is using Windows Authentication to handle username and password. There should be (hopefully) a way to call the webservice and send the required authentication information, but i just dont see any example for how this can be done with AS.

Re: RE: [Flashcoders] Password Protected Webservice call - Help Please!
Try this:
// SOAP Request
var thisXMLReq:String = '?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?' +
'SOAP-ENV:Envelope
xmlns:xsi=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance;
xmlns:xsd=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema;
xmlns:SOAP-ENV=http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/;SOAP-ENV:Body
xmlns:ns1=http://cfc;ns1:authenticateUser
SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle=http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/;username
xsi:type=xsd:stringusername/usernamepassword
xsi:type=xsd:stringpassword/password/ns1:authenticateUser/SOAP-ENV:Body/SOAP-ENV:Envelope';
// SOAP Request Length
var SOAPReqLen:Number = thisXMLReq.length;
// Basic authentication encoded
// see http://www.securitystats.com/tools/base64.php
var basicAuthVal:String = B64BlahB6Blah=; //Base64 encoded string of
username:password
// add SOAP Headers
var SOAPHeaders:Array = new Array(Authorization, Basic +
basicAuthVal, SOAPAction, '', Content-Length, SOAPReqLen, ,
UTF-8, Content-Type, text/xml-SOAP; charset=utf-8);
// SOAP Request XML
var myXML_xml:XML = new XML(thisXMLReq);
// Add HTTP Headers for SOAP Request
myXML_xml.addRequestHeader(SOAPHeaders);
// XML Container for server response
var myXMLResponse_xml:XML = new XML();
// response load acton
myXMLResponse_xml.onLoad = function(success:Boolean){
trace(success);
trace(result: + myXMLResponse_xml.toString());
};
// trigger SOAP call
myXML_xml.sendAndLoad(http://www.myserver.com/usermgmt.cfc;,
myXMLResponse_xml);
I just found that on the Adobe livedocs. I'm not sure why the
username+password is base64 encoded but you might try a plaintext
version and if that doesn't work, base64 encode it.
Hope this gets you SOMEWHERE. Let us know!
