Calling .asmx Web Service from Java Client

hi
I have created one java client in WSAD 5.1 to invoke .asmx web service. I have used the following code for it.
import org.apache.axis.client.Call;
import org.apache.axis.client.Service;
import org.apache.axis.encoding.XMLType;
import javax.xml.namespace.QName;
import javax.xml.rpc.NamespaceConstants;
import javax.xml.rpc.ParameterMode;
import java.net.URL;
public class JavaWS3
     public static void main(String [] args)
          try
               // Responds the same with or without the ?WSDL
               String     strEndPoint          = "http://www.meizlik.com/Service.asmx";
               String     strSoapAction     = "http://www.meizlik.com/BigAdd";
               String     strSchemaURL     = "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
               String     strParamName1     = "addend_1";
               String     strParamName2     = "addend_2";
               String     strParameterVal1= "10";
               String     strParameterVal2= "7";
               String     strFunctionName     = "BigAdd";
               //Call     call   = (Call) new Service().createCall();//Works
               //Call     call   = new Call(strSoapAction);//Works same
               //Call     call   = new Call(strEndPoint);//Works same
               Service  service = new Service();
                Call call= (Call) service.createCall();
               call.setEncodingStyle(NamespaceConstants.NSURI_SOAP_ENCODING);
               call.setTargetEndpointAddress(new URL(strEndPoint));
               // first parameter in QName seemingly takes ANYTHING
               call.setOperationName(new QName("http://www.meizlik.com", strFunctionName));
               // Set the name of the parameter and the return type
               call.setReturnType(XMLType.XSD_STRING);
               call.addParameter(new QName("http://www.meizlik.com",strParamName1), XMLType.XSD_STRING, ParameterMode.IN);
               call.addParameter(new QName("http://www.meizlik.com",strParamName2), XMLType.XSD_STRING, ParameterMode.IN);
               // Catch the result and print it
               // Parameter count is now ONE (1).
               // call.setUseSOAPAction(true);//Not Necessary
               call.setSOAPActionURI(strSoapAction);//Yes Necessary
               String     strResult = (String) call.invoke(
                    new Object[] {
                         new String(strParameterVal1),
                         new String(strParameterVal2)
               System.out.println("Result='" + strResult + "'");
          catch (Exception e)
               e.printStackTrace();
               System.out.println(e.toString());
}this code is giving me the exception as :
java.net.ConnectException: Operation timed out: connect due to invalid addressI visited web service URL http://www.meizlik.com/Service.asmx and its working fine.
I also tried Java Proxy method in WSAD 5.1 but it is showing me the same error.
Where am I wrong? Can anyone plz give me solution 4 this.
Thanks..

  • Calling a Web Service from Java

    Our java guru (who is out sick....AHHHH) created all the calls that are needed to access the web service that he has running. For example the call getLongList(String user, String password) will return a list of all outstanding transactions. He made a jar file that has service has class files for PortType, Service, Service Locator and Soap Binding stub.
    How do I call this web service from java? Do I have to import it into my classpath? or just call these parameters from within my java code?

    Hi SBK,
    I assume you may already have read the [help guide|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/81/12703e5da3e946e10000000a114084/content.htm] This gives a pretty good idea of how to do it (step by step).
    Is there a typo in the error you pasted?
    Error The method setRouteGeometryLineArray(double][) in the type Trip is not applicable for the arguments (double[]) ComplexType_Trip.java WS_INVOKE/gen_wdp/packages/com/cintas/test/model/p1 line 249
    The square brackets [] after double in the method call appear to be reversed. Is that also in the code? or just a mistake here?
    Hope this points you in the right direction.

  • How to access .asmx Web Service using JAVA? Newbie

    Hello Experts,
    Currently, I have a project where in I have to access a ,NET web service. It is made of C#. I just want to ask how will I start the accessing process? I made this simple equation on how my project is.
    Java Project + C#.Net Web Service = Integration
    1. Do i need to create a Web Service too for the Java Project? If yes, What are the necessary tools needed for the creation of this Java Web Service?
    2. The .NET Web Service is available online. (It is made by other people).
    3. Based on the equation, what is the equivalent technology for the + sign?
    4. Can you site a concrete example for accessing a web service?
    5. I'm new here. Totally I have no idea where to start.
    6. Thank you experts.

    Thanks a lot for your help ...
    I am developing simple J2EE based web service client using IBM WSAD 5.1. I have used the following code to call .asmx web service in Java

  • Unable to call a web service from BPEL Project

    I am running my BPEL PM on Windows XP SP3. The platform is weblogic 9.2, SOA 10.1.3.1.
    I created a simple BPEL project to call a web service and when I run the project from BPELConsole I getting the following error:

    Any help or hint is appreciated.

    I have had this issue before when calling a .NET service, it was firewall related. I didn't actually make the fix so I can't tell you exactly how it was fixed on the server. I hope this info makes sense as this this the info I got from the IT boys
    I’ve install this tool on your computer:
    http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=05C2C932-B15A-4990-B525-66380743DA89&displaylang=en
    which does that:
    Firewall Client for ISA Server can be optionally installed on client computers protected by Microsoft ISA Server. Firewall Client for ISA Server provides enhanced security, application support, and access control for client computers. It provides authentication for Winsock applications that use TCP and UDP, supports complex secondary protocols, and supplies user and application information to the ISA Server logs.
    When a client computer running Firewall Client for ISA Server makes a request, the destination is evaluated by the Firewall Client software, and external requests are directed to the ISA Server computer for handling. No specific routing infrastructure is required. Firewall Client sends user information transparently with each request, enabling you to create a firewall policy on the ISA Server computer with rules that use the authentication credentials presented by the client. ISA Server allows you to configure automatic discovery for Firewall client computers, using a WPAD entry in DNS or DHCP to obtain correct Web proxy settings for clients, depending on their location.
    and I’ve added a exception in IE to the tools-lan settings-advanced-exceptions to be creditworks.* Did this by modifying the GPO that applies to your account, so all the users in National Office should have that exception.
    hope you can use this.

    Does any one have insights about it?

    Hi Swapna,
    from your screenshot it seems that you actually try to call the service in your Data Source Expression field. You should set path to the WSDL file here actually - this could be either URL to SAP or to filesystem, as Anton suggested (this could be faster). Have you created endpoint binding for your service in transaction SOAMANAGER? If yes, then simply download the corresponding WSDL with binding or copy the URL which leads to it. But also test whether you are able to retrieve the WSDL without logging into SAP (close all browser windows and then open a new one otherwise session ID from other browser windows can be reused).
    If you have to give username and password, then setup anonymous alias in transaction SICF, for example.
    Pleas, check my previous post on the same subject here: Re: BCM7 IVR : SOAP request for client identification in CRM .
    Maybe it could help.

  • QName error while calling a web service from Sourcing

    I need to call a web service from Sourcing script. The web service team has provided us the WSDL and I have generated the required stubs using wsimport and packaged the required java classes in a custom JAR. Now while calling a web method using this jar from my script, I am getting and exception. The exception message that I printed out was this:
    Caught exception e with msg Connection IO Exception. Check nested exception for details. (Connection
    IO Exception. Check nested exception for details. (Connection Exception; nested exception is:
    java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: cannot create QName from "null" or "" String).)
    The same jar and same code works fine when called from a standalone java program.
    I am not using or creating QName anywhere in my script. The only place where QName is used is in the generated java class and there it is created from the correct namespace URL
    Can anyone please help me out in figuring out what is the issue?

    This is the stack trace of the error:

  • How to call COPY web service from sharepoint in SAP

    Hello Experts,
    I want to call COPY web service from SharePoint in SAP  web dynpro / JAVA application.

    That did not work either. There was getPorts() and not getPort() and I used getPorts(). And I am getting the below error,
    java.lang.ClassCastException: java.util.HashMap$KeyIterator
    But when I try like the below,
        @WebServiceRef(wsdlLocation="http://localhost:7001/webservice/services/TraderBean?wsdl")
        String url = "http://localhost:7001/webservice/services/TraderBean?wsdl";
        QName qname = new QName("http://statelessSession.basic.ejb20.ejb.examples", "TraderBeanService");
                TraderBeanServiceLocator service = new TraderBeanServiceLocator();
                TraderBean port = (TraderBean) service.getPort(TraderBean.class);
                System.out.println("Invoking the sayHello operation on the port.");
                TradeResult response = port.buy("INR", 200);
                System.out.println(response.getNumberTraded());I am getting the below error,
    Invoking the sayHello operation on the port.

    As you can see the statement"Invoking the sayHello operation on the port." is getting printed but after that error is thrown.
    I tried changing it to, TraderBean port = (TraderBean) service.getPort(qname, TraderBeanServiceLocator.class);
    But even this is throwing the same error, java.lang.InstantiationException: examples.ejb.ejb20.basic.statelessSession.TraderBean
    I changed my webservice using Axis2 web service runtime and this time when I try to invoke using client, I am getting the following,

    retx := utl_dbws.invoke(call_, params);
    utl_dbws.release_service(service_);
    end;
    can anyone help me in this?
    thx

    Are you expecting us to guess at the message you received when you got the 28868?
    I guess: "the wallet is closed."
    If I guessed correctly then open it.
    ALTER SYSTEM SET ENCRYPTION WALLET OPEN IDENTIFIED BY "<your_wallet_password_here>";If I didn't guess correctly then you need to provide all of the information you neglected in your original post.
    Start with the version number.

  • Call a Web Service from within an e-Sourcing script

    Hi Guys
    I would like to know wether anyone has successfully been able to call a Web Service from within an
    e-Sourcing script? If you have, can you please share your experience and code?
    Thank You

    Hi Faaiez -
    As with any use of Web Services, however, you should carefully consider the security issues that may come up. How, for example, will the Web Service server validate that the Web Service client (E-Sourcing) is properly authenticated? Will password information be included in the web service call? You will find that it is very easy to make a web service call, but I would encourage you to carefully consider security before implementing a productive solution.
    Web service calls can be made using raw Java web service APIs from the open source Axis library which is included with E-Sourcing; this approach is slightly more difficult to code, but very dynamic. Web service calls can also be made using proxies. In one solution that I worked on, we generated java proxies for the web service, compiled those proxies into a Jar file, and included that jar file as a custom jar in E-Sourcing. Let me provide a few more details on each of these approaches.
    Using raw java web service APIs that are part of the Service and Call classes, I prototyped a web service call to Googles sample spell checker web service. Here is the code:
    import org.apache.axis.client.Call;
    import org.apache.axis.client.Service;
    import org.apache.axis.encoding.XMLType;
    import javax.xml.rpc.ParameterMode;
    import javax.xml.namespace.QName;
    String endpoint = "http://api.google.com/search/beta2";
    Service  service = new Service();       
    Call call = (Call) service.createCall();       
    call.setTargetEndpointAddress( new java.net.URL(endpoint) );       
    call.setOperationName( "doSpellingSuggestion" );       
    call.setOperationName(new QName("urn:GoogleSearch", "doSpellingSuggestion"));       
    call.addParameter("key", XMLType.XSD_STRING, ParameterMode.IN);       
    call.addParameter("phrase", XMLType.XSD_STRING, ParameterMode.IN);       
    call.setReturnType( XMLType.XSD_STRING );       
    String ret = (String) call.invoke( new Object[] { "googlekey", doc.getDocumentDescription()} );       
    doc.setDocumentDescription(ret);
    This block of code does a very simple thing...it calls the Google "doSpellingSuggestions" web service with two parameters: a key provided by Google, and a string for which the spelling suggestions should be generated. I used the current document description as my sample string for the web service and I put the results back into the document description - remember, this is just showing how you can call the web service, not doing anything really intelligent or useful from a business perspective
    There is nothing special to E-Sourcing about the above code...this is really just using the Axis java classes to call a web service.
    The second approach that can be used is to generate Java proxies for the web service calls. The open source Axis library includes a tool called "wsdl2java". Using the WSDL for the web service, you can generate Java proxies. Java classes will be generated by the tool; these Java classes will then need to be compiled and included in E-Sourcing as a custom jar. Once they are part of the E-Sourcing deployment, they can be called like any Java API. If you were to examine the generated code, you would notice that it looks a lot like the raw web service code shown above...the generated classes really just provide a simpler interface to the same functionality.
    You can see this information and other E-Sourcing information at my blog at: http://www.sunshinesys.com/
