Hello all, I'm exploring accessing one of the out of box OFBiz applications from another program. Specifically, at the moment I'm attempting to expose the "storeOrder" service via SOAP by following Vincenzo Di Lorenzo's tutorial. Here are the steps I've taken: 1) inside "applications/order/servicedef/services.xml", I've set storeOrder's service export attribute to "true" 2) I've attempted to access the service at " http://localhost:8080/webtools/control/SOAPService/storeOrder?WSDL" (slight modification of Vincenzo's tutorial url). When I do this, I get the following message: "Unable to obtain WSDL". Did I miss a step? Am I hitting the wrong URL (very strong possibility)? Also, if anyone has thoughts, advice, or links about exposing the out of box OFBiz apps via SOAP for the purposes of external access, I'm all ears. I've read the tutorials and have spent a lot of time going through the mailing list archives, but I can't *quite* find anything discussing the particular problem I'm solving (though many come close). Basically I want to access the service layer on down (via SOAP) for an out of box app, while creating my own GUI on top of everything (outside of OFBiz's structure). An earlier thread on Joomla integration seems to come closest. Thanks for your help! -DeAngelo Lampkin
