[U2] Web Services at Universe 11.n
I've been telling my boss that if we upgraded to Universe 11.23, we can implement web services. (We're currently on 10.2) But, finally looking in detail at the appropriate manual (Universe Web Services Developer) it seems that one can publish a web service easily enough so that Universe data can be gotten, but I don't see that the other side is implemented, where one accesses an external web service and brings back data into Universe. Am I missing the something? What are any of you using to fully implement web services with an underlying Universe environment?

Re: [U2] Web Services at Universe 11.n
I've recently been tasked with accessing a webservice, and couldn't get a valid response from the webservice. It kept not recognizing the headers that were sent, and with the maximum logging set on the uv side, it looked like everything was being sent just fine, but the webservice still failed it. I switched to using curl, and it all worked perfectly.

1. We use ColdFusion... as middleware. 2. I think of UniVerse as the back-end database. 3. Consider other middleware options... ASP.net, PHP, Java, TomCat, Spring, Ruby, Node.JS...etc. 4.

Re: [U2] Web Services at Universe 11.n
Yes, as I said, I've tested with curl and it works perfectly. The problem I have is not being able to clearly/cleanly see the raw text being sent by the uv functions, in order to determine the difference in what curl sends (success) and what the uv functions send (failure). There may be certain idiosyncratic parsing involved in the service I am trying to consume, but I have no control over that. With curl I can see the entire conversation if the logging is set correctly. With the uv functions, even with the highest logging level, it doesn't appear that the logging is actually that complete and exact. I have never had the impression that it was. I would love to be able to do it all in uv, but I only have control over half of the conversation, and with the uv functions, I seem to have a bit less than half.

Re: [U2] Web Services at Universe 11.n
Is there any security on the target url? You might need a Host header, if the url/ db is checking. -Rick -Original Message- From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org [mailto:u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of Richard Lewis Sent: Wednesday, October 30, 2013 4:17 PM To: U2 Users List Subject: Re: [U2] Web Services at Universe 11.n Tried that already, but thanks for the suggestion. By the way, the curl solution doesn't require that header to get a successful response.

It kept not recognizing the headers that were sent, and with the maximum logging set on the uv side, it looked like everything was being sent just fine, but the webservice still failed it. I switched to using curl, and it all worked perfectly.

Re: [U2] Web Services at Universe 11.n
Hi Richard, I think you have a few of options to see the raw traffic between the UV and your web service. 1. Enable protocol logging before calling SoapCreateRequest protocolLogging(c:\tmp\soap.log, ON,10) 2. Setup a proxy server that can view the request. I think we have used fiddler2 http://fiddler2.com/features or soapui http://www.soapui.org/SOAP-Recording/recording-soap-traffic.html in the past Once you have setup your proxy server to monitor the http traffic you need to configure the proxy in your U2 program before calling SoapCreateRequest. Below is a test program I have used before with logging with http proxy enabled. Note: I have dug this up from a test project about a year ago. I hope it's all correct and functioning. It might give you a clue on how to debug your issue or what you may be missing. It should at least show you how to enable logging, enabling proxy and setting headers.
