Set listbox items from web service response

Hi All
I am trying to set list box items from a web service response. Couple of issues over here:
1. The user should be able to select multiple items from the list. Hence if I set "Allow multiple values" and set Commit on "exit", then after the web service returns the output, no data is displayed in the listbox. I need to click inside the list box to see the data returned by the web service. How to overcome this..?? ( However this problem (clicking inside the listbox to see the items) does not exist if "Allow multiple values" is unchecked and Commit is set on "Select". )
2. After the list box is filled up, certain default values should be selected. This selection is based on one of the response field (which is actually a table with multiple values... ). Hence, how to capture this response field and set the default values in the above list..??
3. The same case for a dropdown. The values are visible in dropdown. However, a default value should be selected and displayed after returning a response from web service. Again, this default value is dependant on another field in the response as in point no.2
I am trying to use postExecute event as described in [this|http://forms.stefcameron.com/2009/03/23/pre-process-web-service-responses/] link...however not able to achieve the functionality. Please provide suggestions / inputs.
Thanks

Hello,
first: I don´t know anything about the right solution. I am unaware of the existence of the solution, because there were quite many of question about this multiple selection problem and I don´t remember a single "answer".
I can recommend you to simplify everything and create the functionality yourself. I have done that before to avoid these "Adobe-standard" problems. If you have a problem with autofill of the object, ask your WS to send you a single string and pass it yourself using scripting (JS).
And if you have problems with multiple selection, create your own field/ object. Get the string of values, parse it, create multiple lines of the dynamic table with some suitable tool to check/ select the rows you need (use checkbox for example, and your text as a table row). This way you can selected anything you want with no problems at all. It wil only cost you some extra work.

Removing xmlns from web service response issue (XSTL mapping)

Hi XI experts.
I'm having a very strange issue with a pamming program: It all started because the response from a 3rd party web service is coming with a "xmlns=http://....etc" in the document node and this was causing XI not to recognize the message.
After reading most of the forum threads and with the help of other web resources, I was able to write a small XSLT program to remove this. The program seems to work perfectly: I can open the resulting XML document in IE, return it as a response to a test soapUI call, even load it all in "green" in the XI mapping test tool.
But, when I feed the resulting message into the next mapping (XI mapping), only the Message Type node is produced at the other end!!! Not even an error message is issued. The same happens in the mapping test tool. Hoewver, I'm able to display the queues. I'm puzzled.
This is my XSLT mapping, is there anything wrong with it?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="*">
<xsl:element name="{local-name()}">
<xsl:for-each select="@*">
<xsl:attribute name="{local-name()}">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:for-each>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Thanks in advance.

Hi Aamir,
Thanks for your response. I will check it out.
In the last 10 minutes or so I realized that the empty message is being produced because the first child node of the message is optional (0..1) and for some strange reason that source node mapped to it was not being recognized after the XSLT. I confirmed this by mapping this node to a constant. Then I restored the original mapping and now it's working - weird! It looks like something was messed up inside the XI mapping program. I will continue testing however I am now off-site and have no connectivity via SOAPUI until Monday.
Thanks.
Carlos

Extracting the data from web service response

Hi,
I called a web service and in response got an XML data, now I have to extract the values and store in table
My steps,
1,call web service
2,stored response in CLOB column
3,Then used following query
SELECT loc.*
FROM my_xml PO,
XMLTable(XMLNAMESPACES(
'urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-diffgram-v1' as "diffgr"
,'http://api.***.com/' as "ns0"
,'/ns0:DataSet/diffgr:diffgram/NewDataSet/OptOutAll'
PASSING xmltype.createxml(PO.xml_data)
COLUMNS
"Email" CHAR(100) PATH 'Email',
"Reason" CHAR(150) PATH 'Reason'
) As loc
WHERE ROWNUM <= 10;
I have written it by using this example
But it is not working, dont know why

Hi,
Any good reasons to use a dynamic XQuery expression via a PL/SQL variable?
It's not a good idea for two reasons :
It doesn't work with the XMLNamespaces clause, it is simply ignored.
It disables parse-time optimization, so no streaming evaluation even tough you're using a binary xmltype source.
Use a static XQuery string as shown in the beginning of this thread.
Or, if you really need a variable expression you'll have to declare the namespace mappings in it as well :
'declare namespace soap = "http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope";
declare namespace diffgr = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-diffgram-v1";
declare namespace ns0 = "http://api.***.com/";
/soap:Envelope/soap:Body/ns0:GetOptOutAllResponse/ns0:GetOptOutAllResult/diffgr:diffgram/NewDataSet/OptOutAll'
but again that usage is discouraged.
Also note that declaring namespaces that way only apply to the scope of the main XQuery expression, so if there are any namespace-qualified PATH expressions in the COLUMNS clause, it won't work either.

Web service response contains SOAP Headers with "mustUnderstand" true

Hi
I have a requirement where in I have to consume a web service as adaptive web service model, and while executing the service pass a mandatory parameter to the soap header. We are able to set the mandatory parameter to the soad header. We got the code snippet to do this from a wiki link
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/WDJava/FAQ-Models-AdaptiveWebService#FAQ-Models-AdaptiveWebService-WhatarethefunctionalgapsofthecurrentAdpativeWSModelImporter%3F
On executing the service now through web dynpro we are getting the below error
"Web service response contains SOAP Headers with "mustUnderstand" true which are not handled by the client runtime"
Any thoughts on how to handle this mustUnderstand attribute with some code snippet? Appreciate all help.
Thanks,
KN.

Hi
Have you found the workaround?
Sorry for refreshing topic. Flag mustUnderstand ='1' in response is unussual thing.

Hi, Buddy,
Did you fix your issue?
Now, I have the same issue, EBS version is 12.1.3. Using Soapui invoking PL/SQL, then go back to SOA monitor to check the error message.
Could you please give me some advises?
Thanks,

Facing problem while going to catch return result from web-services.

Hi everybody,
I am new to BPEL. I am facing problem while going to catch the attributes of resultsets returning from web-services(QAS). As far as my knowledge, two types of results it should return - XML entities and another is attributes which is coming as the part of XML entitites. I am able to catch the XML entities, but can't catch the attributes under it. Even, I am not able to see whether web-services returning something within that field.
When, I tried to catch the attribute and store to a temporary varilable using the following code:
*<assign name="AssignQASDoGetAddress1">*
*<copy>*
*<from variable="InvokeQAS_DoSearch_OutputVariable"*
part="body"
query="/ns6:QASearchResult/ns6:QAPicklist/ns6:PicklistEntry/@PostcodeRecoded"/>
*<to variable="temp"/>*
*</copy>*
*</assign>*
but, I am facing the following selectionFailure errors after running it:
*"{http://schemasxmlsoap.org/ws/2003/03/business-process/}selectionFailure" has been thrown.*
-<selectionFailure xmlns="http://schemasxmlsoap.org/ws/2003/03/business-process/">
-<part name="summary">
*<summary>*
empty variable/expression result.
xpath variable/expression expression "bpws:getVariableData('InvokeQAS_DoSearch_OutputVariable', 'body', '/ns6:QASearchResult/ns6:QAPicklist/ns6:PicklistEntry/@PostcodeRecoded')" is empty at line 269, when attempting reading/copying it.
Please make sure the variable/expression result "bpws:getVariableData('InvokeQAS_DoSearch_OutputVariable', 'body', '/ns6:QASearchResult/ns6:QAPicklist/ns6:PicklistEntry/@PostcodeRecoded')"is not empty.
*</summary>*
*</part>*
*</selectionFailure>*
Getting this error it seems to me that web-service is returning nothing, but, it returns something as it has been catched using a method called isPostcodeRecoded() Java Code in Oracle ADF. This method has been used as it should return boolean whereas for catching the xml entities using java code we used the method like getPostcode(), getMoniker().
For your information, we are using Jdeveloper as the development tool for building the BPEL process.
Am I doing any syntax error. Please consider it as urgent and provide me asolution.
Thanks in advance.
Chandrachur.

Thanks Dave and Marc, for your suggestions. Actually what I found is QAS web-service is returning nothing as attributes when the attributes are set to the default value. For example, following is the part of the wsdl of the result which QAS webservice returns.
<xs:element name="QASearchResult">
- <xs:complexType>
- <xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="QAPicklist" type="qas:QAPicklistType" minOccurs="0" />

<xs:attribute name="OverThreshold" type="xs:boolean" default="false" />
<xs:attribute name="Timeout" type="xs:boolean" default="false" />
</xs:complexType>
<xs:complexType name="PicklistEntryType">
- <xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="Moniker" type="xs:string" />
<xs:element name="PartialAddress" type="xs:string" />
<xs:element name="Picklist" type="xs:string" />
<xs:element name="Postcode" type="xs:string" />
<xs:element name="Score" type="xs:nonNegativeInteger" />
</xs:sequence>
<xs:attribute name="FullAddress" type="xs:boolean" default="false" />
<xs:attribute name="Multiples" type="xs:boolean" default="false" />
<xs:attribute name="CanStep" type="xs:boolean" default="false" />
<xs:attribute name="AliasMatch" type="xs:boolean" default="false" />
<xs:attribute name="PostcodeRecoded" type="xs:boolean" default="false" />
<xs:attribute name="CrossBorderMatch" type="xs:boolean" default="false" />
<xs:attribute name="DummyPOBox" type="xs:boolean" default="false" />
<xs:attribute name="Name" type="xs:boolean" default="false" />
<xs:attribute name="Information" type="xs:boolean" default="false" />
<xs:attribute name="WarnInformation" type="xs:boolean" default="false" />
<xs:attribute name="IncompleteAddr" type="xs:boolean" default="false" />
<xs:attribute name="UnresolvableRange" type="xs:boolean" default="false" />
<xs:attribute name="PhantomPrimaryPoint" type="xs:boolean" default="false" />
</xs:complexType>
here the attributes like FullAddress, PostcodeRecodedare , etc. are not being return by the web-service when it is getting the default value false. But, if it gets true then , it is being displayed at the BPEL console.
Do you have any idea how can I catch the attributes and its value even when it gets the default value which is already set. Previously, it was returning(it was not being displayed at the console).
Thanks once again for your valuable suggestions...!!!

Can I remove items from the Services menu?

I think the subject line says it all: can I remove items from the Services menu? I have a number of items in the Services menu that I never use and I would like to make the menu shorter to make it easier to access the items that I do use.

There are a couple of things you could try. There's an application called Service Scrubber that is supposed to do this. But the web page says it's for 10.4, though it says it might work on 10.3
Alternatively, you can edit the Info.plist or Info-macos.plist file in each application bundle to remove its service from the Services menu. This post at Mac OS X Hints has a pretty detailed description of how to do it. I tried this on my iMac running 10.3.9 and it worked just fine.
Don't know about the Service Scrubber app, but if you edit the plist files, you'll need to log out and log back in before the changes take effect.
Also, if you decide to edit the files by hand, I'd suggest just renaming NSServices by adding an "x" to the front or something, rather than deleting the item completely. That makes the changes easier to reverse.

How to use a Web Service Response

In the snps_users documentation it seems to be really easy but in fact...
After invoking my web service I retrieve a XML file which is my response then we would like to use it.
As written in the documentation I Export Response in XSD file, I create my XML Model but How to reverse the XSD ???
There's 4 references to XSD into all the snps_users documentation but no one talking about.
Moreover it's written See Creating and Reverse-Engineering a
Model for an XML file for more information and that's what I'm doing but no way...
So without the XSD I m trying to use the Response file like an XML file but I always have an error which looks like :
java.sql.SQLException: No root found in the DTD file
The Web Service Response XML File use NameSpace could the problem come from here ???
If someone ever use it ...
Thanks in advance.
BM

When I specify the XSD It raises another error,
my URL is :
jdbc:snps:xml?f=C:/Temp/File.xml&d=C:/Temp/File.xsd&s=REPON&nspg=xml
Error message:
java.sql.SQLException: A SAXException was caught while reading the model saying [Element value has no type]
The XSD and the XML are generated by ODI after invoking a Web Service...
Any idea ???

Binding xml from web service to java objects

I would appreciate if someone can tell me where can i get information regarding

Hi Ag,
To my knowledge, the only information on this topic is whatever you find in the
documentation. What exactly do you want to know?
Can you post a set of specific questions?

Presence data from web service

Hello,
i like to get presence data from the presenceconsumer web service. But everytime a call getUserPresence i get a PolicyException (POL0002): 'Privacy verification failed for address %1, request is refused'.
I use a web service proxy generated from the wsdl of the presenceconsumer web service. Authentication is made against the appregationproxy by setting username and password. Both users (the one i use for authentication and the one whose presence data i want to get) are registered in the timesten database.
The user whose presence data should be accessed is logged in the OracleCommunicator and has the other user on the allowed list for presence data.
All other operations of the presence web services work without any problem, so why not getUserPresence?
Thanks for help

Hi,
I have found the problem and fixed it :)
If you see my code, I was checking for the pending subscriptions after publish() method. When I tried this check before publish() method, I got the expected results (All the pending subscriptions).
Also, I got an error (ServiceException) while dynamically retrieving the subscribed attributes for some reason. I have found an alternative solution, by manually allowing only the PresenceAttributeType.Activity (instead of all getSubscribedAttributes()).
Note: This code was working fine in my local machine because, I have already setup-ed the users (Buddy list) through Oracle communicator in my machine. I was not able to install OC in the VM for some reason though OS is same in both my machine and the VM (OS: Windows 2000 SP4).
thanks & regards,

Retrieve error message of SAP provided web service in web service response

Hi All,
We have a SAP provided web service that sometimes fails to process data it is called with. This is not a problem as the data sometimes is just plain wrong (i.e. date field contains text). However, the error is only logged in SAP and can only be queried using SRT_UTIL.
The problem is that the error is not reported back via the response. How can we set up the web service so that the error could be displayed by the calling party without logging into SAP?
Thanks for the help in advance.
Best Regards,
Daniel

Hi Calvin,
The WS is indeed synchronous. The problem is not whether the error is captured or not. It is captured indeed but it is logged inside SAP only and not returned via the Web Service response mechanism. The error message says that error message can be retrieved using SRT_UTIL.
This is a major problem as the users of the outside system calling SAP have no right to use SRT_UTIL to track down the error. They need to contact SAP basis in order to get to the end of it.
What we need to achieve is to get back the same error message that can be seen with SRT_UTIL via the web service.
Thanks.

Dates coming from web service

Hi,
I'm currently trying to consume in VC a CAF Application Service exposed as a Web Service. I'm able to retrieve what I want but I have a problem with dates format.
The web service returns dates in the following format: YYYY-MM-DDTHH:NN:SS
When I test my data service in VC it works fine. When I run my iview, VC swap the month and the day and compute the new date...
It's not just a problem of formatting with DVAL and DSTR because the date is already computed.
Example:
Date returned from web service: 2007-09-21T00:00:01
Date returned from test data service in VC: 21.09.2007
Date returned at runtime: 09.09.2008
VC understand 21.09.2007 not like DD.MM.YYYY but like MM.DD.YYYY so 21.09.2007 becomes 09.09.2008
I also tried to check on the server Regional and Language option but it doesn't come from there.
Have you ever faced this problem?
Thx

Hi,
It is a Web Service generated by NWDS (to expose my CAF Application Service)and deployed on the server.
The url si like http://<hostname>:<port>/mywebservice/Config1?wsdl
The Web Service runs correctly.
When I call a method of my web service to retrieve a list of objects (CAF Entity Services) and their attributes, it returns attributes of type String and Dates of type 'java.util.GregorianCalendar'.
It seems that VC doesn't correctly understand this type of Date at runtime
Regards,
Thomas

Create a schema from web service in eclipse

Hi all,
I'm trying to export some data out of SF to an 3rd party via a web service. In the webUI I have the possibility(Attachment 1) to create a schema from web service so my outgoing file matches the requirements. In Eclipse I cannot find that option and I'm encoutering some errors (attachement 2).
Can anyone tell me if there is a possibility like the web UI in eclipse?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
You can create a portal service which can access KM to create a folder and then expose this portal service as Web Services.
To know more:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/43/cb213e578c0262e10000000a11466f/frameset.htm

To know the api to create folder in your service method, check this:

Some code:
IResourceContext context = new ResourceContext(user);
ICollection parent = (ICollection) ResourceFactory.getInstance()
.getResource(″/documents″, context);
IResource resource = parent.createResource(″file″, null, null);
ICollection collection = parent.createCollection(″folder″, null);

Problem setting up the UCP Web Service

I am new to CISCO and my first project is to set up the UCP Web Service. I don't have access to the web interface on ACS but I was told that acs config-web-interface ucp enable was run.
I have in the UCP file on tomcat
C:\Tomcat 7.0\webapps\ROOT\UCP
within the UCP file I have :
META-INF
pythonImport
pythonUCP
WEB-INF
index.jsp
wsdl.xml
With that set up I get to the index.jsp page. When I put the information in I get the following error message:
HTTP Status 404 - /UCP/UcpServlet
type Status report
message /UCP/UcpServlet
description The requested resource (/UCP/UcpServlet) is not available
I am sure I have done some sad and strange things. Can someone point me in the right direction? A simple stupid one at that...
Thank you so much

Hi,
Is there solution for this issue? I also have encounter similar problem:
An error occurred at line: [14] in the generated java file: [C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 7.0\work\Catalina\localhost\_\org\apache\jsp\indexacs_jsp.java]
Only a type can be imported. com.cisco.nm.acs.mgmt.common.version.VersionFileReader resolves to a package
An error occurred at line: 23 in the jsp file: /indexacs.jsp
VersionFileReader cannot be resolved
It's seems there is a missed library (VersionFileReader) for JSP, does anyone can guide me to find it?
Thanks,
Rp
