ColdFusion Developer version and web services

Hi,
Does anyone know if there is a known issue about Web Services
not running on
ColdFusion developer version?
I have been testing the most simple web services on 3
different live servers
and 3 different localhost servers with the same files and got
successful
results on all the live servers, but the same errors on all
the local
servers running on ColdFusion latest developer version. All 6
servers are
running on IIS either on Windows XP or 2000. Below is the
error I get when
I tested it locally:
Could not generate stub objects for web service invocation.
Name:
http://tutorial/ColdFusion/template/webservices/helloworld/helloworld.cfc?wsdl.
WSDL:
http://tutorial/ColdFusion/template/webservices/helloworld/helloworld.cfc?wsdl.
java.net.UnknownHostException: tutorial: tutorial It is
recommended that you
use a web browser to retrieve and examine the requested WSDL
document for
correctness. If the requested WSDL document can't be
retrieved or it is
dynamically generated, it is likely that the target web
service has
programming errors. The error occurred in
D:\tutorial\ColdFusion\template\webservices\helloworld\helloworld.cfm:
line
6
4 : method="getMessage"
5 : returnvariable="aString">
6 : <cfinvokeargument name="name" value="Rob"/>
7 : </cfinvoke>
8 :
Please let me know if you know anything about this.YC

If your developer edition is on your own machine you might be
having proxy server issues.
Find out what your proxy server is and enter it using the
proxyserver="" attribute in cfinvoke

The Oracle Database Programming using Java and Web services book is out

This book http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1555583296 shows how to build pragmatic applications using the combination of PL/SQL, Java in the database, JDBC, SQLJ, JPublisher, and Web services. It is intented for database developers, DBA, data architects, Java developers and Web services assemblers.
My blog http://db360.blogspot.com/ and the free/sample chapter http://www.oracle.com/technology/books/pdfs/mensah_ch1.pdf will give you a feel of the content.
Enjoy, Kuassi

Hi Kuassi,
Thanks for letting us know that your book is available. I have been following one of your articles about "Virtualize Your Oracle Database with Web Services". More specifically "The Database as Web Services Consumer". I think that this is an area that has in the past been under estimated as to the potential benefits.
I am currently trying to develop a solution that consumes several interfaces with a couple of them being published web services, so an ideal solution. I have then spent the last three weeks having to read up about the architecture of Java in the database, Jpublisher and make sense of how it all works together.
I have got very close to getting one of the web services to work but failed due to using 10gR2 where all the java & libraries has moved to version 1.5. The solution is to load the jdk1.4.2 and configure jpublisher to use this. So far so good except this is not available on some platforms, Windows - 64 bit (not itanium).
The configuration is proving very challenging but will hopefully reap rewards.
(Thought I would give you some background to my experience).
Anyway my question to you is having looked at Jdeveloper it appears to do almost anything except consume services into the database, also with Java now being at version 1.5 outside the database for 10gR2 and supporting 1.4 inside, do you see some alignment of these in future database releases?
Finally off to buy your book now as no doubt there is a huge amount more to learn.
Kind Regards

XML and Web Service Data Source Missing in Crystal Reports for VS

I would like to use a Web Service as the data source for a Crystal Report that will be running outside of my Visual Studio application. So setting the data source to the web service in code is not possible. My understanding is Crystal Reports has a connection (in the Database Expert under New Connection) named XML and Web Service. Here you can select web service and enter the WSDL URL for the web service. However it does not appear in the list for Crystal Reports for Visual Studio. Does this connection type come with the Visual Studio version of Crystal Reports and if not is their a way to obtain it?
Thank you for your assistance.

None of the bundled versions of CR have the driver. Reason is that the driver responsible for these connections requires the Java framework and I suspect MS would not be too pleased if we installed the Java framework. The stand alone versions, since they are not part of any bundle can and do install the Java framework and the driver. Note that even the latest release of CR - CRVS2010 does not have the driver as it essentially becomes a bundle or a VS2010 plug-in.
So, the short of it is; you have to obtain a stand-alone version of CR. I'd recommend CR 2008 (12.x) as CRXI R2 will run out of support in June of this year.

Can't run wiki and web services at the same time?

I'm a newbie with Lion Server, but I've been running several web sites successfully for about 6 months. I'm up to Server 10.7.4.
I've been trying ever since the first installation of Server to get the wiki service running. I had absolutely no luck until I turned OFF the web service (always got the "URL does not exist" error when I tried to create a group wiki from inside the Server app). With the web service off, it all starts up fine and I created my first wiki (woohoo). Turning web service back on kills access to the wiki. I don't find reference to this in any of the dicussions, and especially not in Apple's documentation.
Are the Wiki and Web services mutually exclusive? Or is there a way around this?
I'm using Dyndns to provide me with sub-domains to use, and I've dedicated one of them to the wiki service. Traffic comes in on port 8080, where my web sites are on port 80.
Thanks for any pointers...

LR supports tethering using a Canon DLL and EOS Utility probably also supports tethering or at least uses something from a similar Canon DLL. You probably cannot have two different versions of that DLL loaded at the same time, so it makes sense there are problems.

Custom Portal Services and Web services

Can you please tell me what exactly are "custom portal services" and "web services" with a business like/ real life example?
How do you go about developing deploying and utilizing these services in Portal?
Thanks.

Hi navin,
Thanks for the par file.
Duly awarded points.
I need your help again.
I wish to use the method
public String getWelcomeString(String name)
in my own portal application to test usage of portal services.
So I uploaded your par file on my server.
Then I added the api and core jar files which came along with your par in my project as external jar files.
I imported com.wickes.WickesService.*;
Next, to use the service I coded:
IPortalRuntimeResources rs =
PortalRuntime.getRuntimeResources();
IWickesService ws = (IWickesService) rs.getService(IWickesService.KEY);
But now I am stuck and I dont know how to proceed.
Please help.

Struts and web services

If you want to use Struts and web services, what approach do you take? If you want to use reliable messaging,
you need to have a web service client as well as the web service being called.
What is the recommended way to set this up?
Do you call a local web service from the action class and then have that web service do all of the business logic including calling remote web services?
I am just starting to look at this so I am probably not close but I would like some guidance on what, in general, is the correct approach.

The jars you are referring to are not SAP BusinessObject specifics jars: struts and JiBX. There are open source java framework. For more information about the struts refer to:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_Struts
for more information about jibx refer to:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JiBX
Normally the core jars for a SAP BusinessObjects webservice SDK are:
The core jar files to use for Web Services Java SDK applications are:
dsws-bicatalog.jar
dsws-biplatform.jar
dsws-common.jar
dsws-publish.jar
dsws-queryservice.jar
dsws-reportengine.jar
dsws-saveservice.jar
dsws-session.jar
wilog.jar
And the jars you have mentioned are part of the
The dependent jar files to use for Web Services Java SDK applications are:
activation-1.1.jar
axiom-api-1.2.5.jar
axiom-impl-1.2.5.jar
axis2-kernel-1.3.jar
axis2-saaj-1.3.jar
axis2-xmlbeans-1.3.jar
backport-util-concurrent-2.2.jar
commons-codec-1.3.jar
commons-httpclient-3.0.1.jar
commons-logging-1.1.jar
log4j-1.2.14.jar

struts.jar
wsdl4j-1.6.2.jar
wstx-asl-3.2.1.jar
xbean-2.2.0.jar
XmlSchema-1.3.2.jar
In any cases it is recommended not to have duplicated jars in your deployment and also check if the version of the jars to use is supported by the version of the JDK used.
Thanks

EAI AND WEB SERVICES

Hi,
What is the difference between web services and EAI ?
Thank you.

Hi,
Salient Differences between Traditional EAI Solutions and Web Services
A few essential differences between traditional EAI solutions and Web Services are, as follows:
Simple: There is no doubt that Web Services are much simpler to design, develop, maintain, and use as compared to a typical EAI solution which may involve distributed technology such as DCOM and CORBA. Once the framework of developing and using Web Services is ready, it will be relatively easy to automate new business processes spanning across multiple applications.
Open Standards: Unlike proprietary EAI solutions, Web Services are based on open standards such as UDDI, SOAP, HTTP and this is probably the single most important factor that would lead to the wide adoption of Web Services. The fact that they are built on existing and ubiquitous protocols eliminates the need for companies to invest in supporting new network protocols.
Flexible: Since EAI solutions may require point-to-point integration, changes made at one end have to be propagated to the other end, making them very rigid and time consuming in nature. Web Services based integration is quite flexible, as it is built on loose coupling between the application publishing the services and the application using those services.
Cheap: EAI solutions, such as message brokers, are very expensive to implement. Web Services, in the future, may accomplish many of the same goals - cheaper and faster.
Scope: EAI solutions, such as message brokers, integrate applications treating them as single entities, whereas Web Services allow companies to break down big applications into small independent logical units and build wrappers around them. For example, a company can write wrappers for different business components of an ERP application such as order management - purchase order acceptance, status of order, order confirmation, accounts receivable, and accounts payable.
Efficient: As mentioned in the previous point, Web Services allow applications to be broken down into smaller logical components, which makes the integration of applications easier as it is done on a granular basis. This makes Web Services solutions for EAI much more efficient than traditional EAI solutions.
Dynamic: Web Services provide a dynamic approach to integration by offering dynamic interfaces, whereas traditional EAI solutions are pretty much static in nature.

Coldfusion admin api via web services?

Hi There,
I'm looking ti access the coldfusion admin api using web
services, but not from coldfusion so I cant use the normal
createObject("component","cfide.adminapi.administrator").login("admin");
I've tried using SOAP to request the login method at
http://mydomain.com/cfide/adminapi/administrator.cfc?wsdl
but the request fails as coldfusion returns the login dialog (as it
does if you try to access the WSDL from a browser.
Does anyone know if it's possible to login and access the
CFIDE through standard SOAP calls rather than just through
coldfusion and how I might go about it.
Thanks in advance,
Tom

You can't invoke such admin components as a web service. Even
if you could it wouldn't work.
You can only call a method in a component as a webservice if
its access is
remote. However, the methods of the system components
/cfide/adminapi/administrator.cfc, /cfide/adminapi/datasource.cfc,
etc. have either
public or
package access. Verify this by running, for example,
<cfscript>
adminObj =
createObject("component","cfide.adminapi.administrator");
adminObj.login("your_admin_password");
</cfscript>
<cfdump var="#adminObj#">

Security for SOA and Web Services

Dipak Chopra's 09 Dec 04 "Security for SOA and Web Services" piece has been a terrific starter for me as I start to delve into this topic. Does SAP/the SDN plan to publish an SAP-specific roadmap to show the adherence to and adoption of these standards in NetWeaver? (Or maybe there is such a published roadmap that I am unaware of?)

Hi Randy
SAP follows and participates in Security and other Web services standards very closely as we recognize the opportunity they present our customers for developing solutions and integrating systems faster at lower cost.
However many of the standards are still in development and so are not quite yet ready for "prime time". This means that we can't really publish a "road map" as it would be continually changing. However, if you want an idea on which standards SAP thinks are important, please take a look at this presentation [1] which was delivered at the last Tech Ed.

Message Monitoring and Web services Sequences .. SOAMANAGER

When can I use Mesage Monitoring and Sequence Monitoring .
We are making a proof a concept and we are the following.
1. A program which executes a proxy and with this proxy we are consuming a web services.
2. The proxy and web services were implemented in the same Abap Machine .
3. We execute the test and everything works very well and we consume the webservice and the program displays the expected result.
Now want to know How can we use the Message Monitoring and the Sequence Monitoring . Is this posible ? Do we have to make any previous configuration?
We don´t have any XI installation and for that we wonder if we can monitorize the webservices sequences ?
Any idea about if we can realize such king of actions ..
Many Thanks

Hi
I assumes u have dual stack.
You can do the sequence monitoring with or without PI. But without PI you would achieve that thing on the local machine.
You have to do those things at Java End using SAP NWA.

SSL certificates and Web Services Usage inside Oracle Database Questions!

We have implemented a specific business logic using PL/SQL for our client, so we open a file and process each line of this, doing something in the Database and also call a Web Services (Service1) using UTL_HTTP package. Service1 runs in a Windows 2008 Server in the DMZ as Database server.
Service1 is already working, and we can call the service from PL/SQL without troubles.
However, according with security client's policies they requires all Web services be consumed via https including Service1, so we must to follow the procedure established for Oracle in order to enable the calling of service1 via https from the Database.
Our client's DBA and IT Team are concerned about two subjects before to continue to follow the certificate installation:
     - SSL Certificates:
1- Can installed certificates in the Database put in risk the stability of the database?
          2- Can installed certificates in the Database generate performance issues?
          3- Can installed certificates reloading the Databases?
          2- Can installed certificates in the Database generate security issues?
     - Web services:
1- Can web services calling from the Database put in risk the stability of the database?
2- Can web services calling from the Database generate performance issues?
3- Can web services calling from the Database generate security issues in the DMZ?
Could you please give us any clues, about the possible negative impact related with the SSL certificates and Web Services Usage inside Oracle Database, if it’s the case this impact exists?.
Those are the links describing the procedure mentioned above.
1 -http://www.kotti.es/2009/11/oracle-wallet/
DB: Oracle 9i.
Average number of lines in file: 300
Periodicity: Twice at day.

Thiago:
You are correct in that there should be no problem interacting with a Web service that has an HTTPS endpoint as long as you create a wallet and specify it when you make your UTL_HTTP calls, like the PayPal example.
I am not aware of a PL/SQL utility to create a XMLDsig Standard message, but if you find some Java source out there that does it, you may be able to follow a technique I used for a similar use case:
