Begin with new BO 4 Java sdk

Question

Hi all,
I have to begin to use the new API 4.0 to upgrade our project which are using the API 3.x.
It's my first use of the API.
I simply will follow an example but I get an error (program on my local computer) :
try {
               URL boConURL = new URL("http://<Server>/dswsbobje/services/");
               Connection boConnection = new Connection(boConURL);
               EnterpriseCredential boCredential = EnterpriseCredential.Factory.newInstance();
               boCredential.setLogin("user");
               boCredential.setPassword("passwd");
               Session boSession = new Session(boConnection);
               SessionInfo boSI = boSession.login(boCredential);
          catch(Exception e) {
               System.out.println(e.getMessage());
               e.printStackTrace();
I get the following error :
login exception (Error: WSE 99999)
org.apache.axis2.AxisFault: login exception (Error: WSE 99999)
     at com.businessobjects.dsws.Consumer.CreateAxisFault(Unknown Source)
     at com.businessobjects.dsws.Consumer.propagateAsDSWSException(Unknown Source)
     at com.businessobjects.dsws.session.Session.login(Unknown Source)
     at be.degroof.test.TestAPI.main(TestAPI.java:24)
Do I miss something?
In fact, it seems my collega was using the ReportEngine to refresh report and download them and it will be deprecated in the next API 4.0?
Thanks in advance for all your help !

Answer 1

Use:
URL boConURL = new URL("http://<Server>/dswsbobje/services/Session");
and not
http://<Server>/dswsbobje/services/Session
Also are you possibly missing the port in the address? If dswsbobje is deployed on default tomcat in 4.0, the address should be:
http://servername:8080/dswsbobje/services/Session
Also make sure you have added all the 4.0 WS consumer SDK Jar files to your project's classpath.
