Do we need the Loadrunner vuser type "web services"?

We are planning to benchmark XI 3.1 using Load runner scripts.
Do we need the Loadrunner vuser type "web services" to benchmark XI 3.1 with SAP Portal, Infoview, Xcelsius, Live Office, and QAAWS?
NOTE: Our customer is using Xcelsius Dashboards against WebIntelligence latest Instances.

Apache is a webserver, Tomcat is a "servlet-container", which it not a webserver. For fast setup, you can develop your Java-web-app with only Tomcat, which saves you the hassle of configuring AJP13 connectors... But they are significantly different....

Need help with DOC type web service

hi,
I am trying to write a simple message style ( doc type ) web service but no success so far. I have tried to search for examples but no use. I already implemented some simple RPC style web services like calculator etc and able to use them. I am more interested in the DOC type ( which sends SOAP message and receives SOAP message back). Can Anybody give me an example for implementing this type of service ( very-simple say HellowWorld ) or point me to some website . I am not able to generate the response envelope. I can write the client program which will send a SOAP Envelope to this services with one parameter NAME and the services should return Hello Name but in a SOAP envelope form. I can create a SOAP message in this Client using SOAPConnection and MessageFactory etc. Your help will be really appreciated. There is very little stuff about webservices on the internet as well on this forum.
Thanks
Vinod

Hello kwilding2,
Thanks for the quick response and pointing to some useful websites. I downloaded the code from web service essentials BUT all the examples are using SOAP RPC calls. They create a call object and call one of the service methods and a response is returned. I am little confused about this stuff. I am looking for something which returns the response in a SOAP envelope for which i think i need to use JAXM API which I already have downloaded. I have created a client which composes a SOAP envelope using SOAPConnection and other MessageFactory classes etc and can send this SOAP envelope to a web service. In return I want the web service to give the SOAP envelope.
I have gone thru xmethods.net and picked the following stock quote request and response:
Sample Request envelope:
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema">
<SOAP-ENV:Body>
<ns1:getQuote xmlns:ns1="urn:xmethods-delayed-quotes" SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">
<symbol xsi:type="xsd:string">IBM</symbol>
</ns1:getQuote>
</SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
Sample Response Envelope:
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema">
<SOAP-ENV:Body>
<ns1:getQuoteResponse xmlns:ns1="urn:xmethods-delayed-quotes" SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">
<return xsi:type="xsd:float">133.625</return>
</ns1:getQuoteResponse>
</SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
I also want the things in this order. This webservice at xmethods just returns the price for a stock, so how they say it returns this Response Envelope. Is this Envelope something implied. I am getting more confused.
any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
Vinod

Are the WLS 9.1 Web Service Ant Tasks ready for prime time?

I am trying to create a Proof of Concept (POC) for Enterprise and B2B Services at Wendy's Int'l, Inc.
As part of this POC, I created a WSDL for an in-house service and then used the wsdlc and jwsc Ant Tasks to translate this WSDL to Java classes and ultimately (I hoped) a deployable services.
In this document, I describe the issues I encountered setting up what I consider to be a simple POC.
I'll try to attach my WSDL file and build.xml so you can follow along.
I'll also try to attach my CSS file so you can compare how the generated WSDL appears in the Browser to the way I want it to appear.
If attachments are not allowed on these forums, then I will wait and see if there is interest in those documents before I paste them under this topic.
Some preliminary information about my environment.
Environment:
 Windows XP Pro SP2
 WebLogic 9.1
 Java 1.5.0_04
Service Name:
 AppRelease
Note: If I modify my WSDL (perhaps to add a new Operation or to change the definition of an element) and run wsdlc again, the AppReleaseSOAPPortImpl.java file is overwritten For this reason, I implemented my service logic in a class called AppReleaseServiceImple.java.
Now, for the issues.
1. Bug:
In the WSDL generated by wsdlc, the wsdl:part child of the wsdl:message tag is erroneously prefixed with a colon.
This occurs whether or not I specify a prefix for the http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/ namespace.
Work around: Extract the wsdl from the jar file, fix it and add it back into the jar.
2. Bug:
In the WSDL generated by wsdlc, the wsdl:input and wsdl:output children of the wsdl:operation child of wsdl:portType tag are erroneously prefixed with a colon. Like 1 above, this occurs whether or not I specify a prefix for the http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/ namespace.
Work around: Extract the wsdl from the jar file, fix it and add it back into the jar.
The error message generated by Bugs 1 and 2 is not helpful in diagnosing the problem:
[jwsc] Error at line:46 col:7 ':' expected [?! -- [CDATA[ ]
3. Bug:
In the WSDL generated by wsdlc, the documentation elements have all of my html elements stripped out, as well as my xhtml and wsdl namespace references. This completely negates one of the best features of the documentation tag, being able to present the WSDL in a browser as a nicely formatted, human friendly document which is also the underlying WSDL that can be viewed when the person views the source document.
I label this as a bug because it greatly reduces the functionality of the resulting WSDL.
4. Annoyance:
The WSDL generated by wsdlc has all of my comments stripped out, except the comments in the xsd:schema section of the wsdl:types element. I would prefer that all my comments be left in the WSDL, but if comments must be stripped out then I think all of the comments should be stripped out.
5. Annoyance:
The WSDL generated by wsdlc has my CSS specification stripped.
Work around: I donâ€™t know if adding the CSS back will do any good because I have not yet created a deployable service (see the last issue below).
6. Annoyance:
The WSDL generated by wsdlc has different namespace prefixes than the ones I specified for my application's namespace and for the http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap/ namespace.
Work around: Perform a find/replace on namespace prefixes "s0" and "s1" to return them to my prefered values.
Another thing I can do at this point is simply replace the generated WSDL in the jar file with my original WSDL. This would address issues 1 thru 6 above.
7. Annoyance:
The java source files created by wsdlc are put into a jar file. This makes it annoying when working within a traditional IDE like Eclipse because there is no way to reference the source files within the jar as working source.
Work around: Extract the source files from the jar and identify the resulting directory structure as part of the source structure of the project.
8. Bug:
The jwsc task complains if the same parameter name is used in multiple operations. I received the following Errors from jwsc:
[jwsc] C:\IDE\workspace\Acre-WL9.1\AppReleaseSOAPPort.java 0:0
[jwsc] [ERROR] - Parameter element "{http://acre.services.wendys.com/AppRelease/}garRequest" is not unique across document/literal bare WebService.
Since the operation names are unique, I see no reason to also require uniqueness in the parameter names used by those operations.
Work around: Use unique element names for the input parameters of the services operations.
9. Bug:
Once items 1, 2 and 8 above are taken care of, jwsc fails with the following error:
java.lang.AssertionError: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: weblogic.j2ee.descriptor.ApplicationBeanImpl
This seems to be due to the weblogic.jar file not being in the System Classpath.
However, I should note that when I set verbose="on" and debug="on" in the jwsc ant task, there was a message from the task which stated "[jwsc] [search path for class files: [big freakinâ€™ jar list]". In the big freakinâ€™ jar list, I did find weblogic.jar and weblogic.jar has the required ApplicationBeanImpl. This indicates to me that the jwsc task does not fully honor either its classpathref attribute, nor an embedded classpath element.
Work around: Make sure the weblogic.jar is in the System Classpath.
10. Bug:
I fixed bug #9 by running a setDomainEnv script and then ran my ant task. This time I received the following output:
ant build-serviceBuildfile: build.xml
build-service:
[jwsc] 1 JWS files will be processed.
[jwsc] Processing JWS: C:\IDE\workspace\Acre-WL9.1\src\com\wendys\services\acre\AppReleaseServiceImpl.java
[jwsc] JWS: C:\IDE\workspace\Acre-WL9.1\src\com\wendys\services\acre\AppReleaseServiceImpl.java Validated.
[AntUtil.deleteDir] Deleting directory <some temporary directory>
BUILD FAILED
java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError
At this point, I am completely stymied about how to proceed.
I wonder what new issues await once this 10th issue is addressed.
Really, is this tool set ready for prime time?

Sorry to hear you are having so many issues with using the WLS 9.1 web service Ant tasks, inside of Eclipse.
I generally create a User Library for the couple weblogic jars needed, and use it (the User Library) in my Eclipse projects that I create JWSes in. 
I also have a separate WebLogic Library in Eclipse (actually 2 libraries since I work with WL 8.1 and now WL 9.1). As you may know, one of the long-standing issues with the Ant integration within Eclipse is the fact that Ant, being an External Tool, does not receive the Project-specific Paths/Libraries. However, since most Java-relevant Ant tasks can take classpath and classpathref attributes, this is usually not an issue. In the case of the BEA-supplied wsdlc Ant task, it is apparent from the verbose/debug console output that wsdlc can see the jars in its classpathref, but it ignores those references when resolving class references and instead only uses the system classpath.

I've only needed the weblogic.jar and xbean.jar, not all the ones you mentioned in an earlier thread of this post. 
I have not tried to winnow down exactly which jars are required. I simply included all the jars that exist and were added to the system classpath by the setDomainEnv.bat file created by WebLogic 9.1.

Afterwards, I create an Ant Builder to build the JWS Web Service EAR, as opposed to fiddlin' with Eclipse. 
I too use Ant to build my deployable archives. Eclipse is simply my IDE of choice. I validated that all the issues I listed occurred when running Ant from the command line.

If you are interested in how I do it, send me an e-mail (to [email protected]), and I'll send you a zip of one of these JWS projects. The build.xml script for the project, takes care of a lot of the "annoyances" you mentioned, one of which I think is not accurate. I have never had a situation where the wsdlc Ant task "overwrote" my XXXImpl.java file.. 
Since I'm doing a POC to determine how we want to proceed with developing Web Services and an SOA in general, I tried to perform the same tasks using Axis 2 1.0, the WebLogic 9.1 tools, and XFire 1.1. Overwriting the Impl class is a common failing in the tools which take a WSDL and create Java source files for all three frameworks.

Try my scenario. Add another operation to an existing WSDL, and run the wsdlc Ant Task. The old IMPL class will be over-written.

Because of this, I have a separate Impl class and I make sure that all its methods and annotations match the methods and annotations in the Skeleton Impl class created by wsdlc.

Maybe that's because I use the <exec> Ant task with jar.exe (the xvf options) in my build.xml, to only get what I need out of the .jar/.zip the wsdlc generates. I'm typically only interest in the interface class that my XXXImpl.java file needs to implements, because I use XMLBeans for the input args (and return values) of my web service operations. 
Perhaps. I am not using XMLBeans in any of the three frameworks because the resulting service seems to be lighter-weight in all three frameworks if XMLBeans is not used. I'm sure there will be scenarios where XMLBeans is preferred, but I have not encountered that case in this POC.

Mike Wooten

Test Connection fails for VC system of type Web Service

Hi All
I ve created a VC system of the type Web Service in Portal. In this VC system, I have given Url of the Enterprise Service that I want to use in VC.
(for eg: http://erp.esworkplace.sap.com/sap/bc/srt/wsdl/sdef_ECC_SALESORDER002QR/wsdl11/ws_policy/document?sap-client=800)
In the next step, I did user mapping for the VC user that will be consuming this Enterprise Service.
The system was created successfully but when I did Connection Tests , I got the following exception:
Test Details:
The test consists of the following steps:
1. Retrieve the default alias of the system
2. Check the connection to the backend application using the connector defined in this system object
Results
Retrieval of default alias successful
Connection failed. Make sure that Single Sign-On is configured correctly
Do I need to do any more configurations before I can use such ES portal system in my VC work studio ?
I understand that I have provided little information about the exception thrown by Portal.
I kindly request you to feel free in asking any other details about the same.

Hi Natty
thanks for your immediate reply.
I followed your instructions and created iView of the type URL and set the fetch mode property to 'server side' as told.
Initially, I gave 'http://www.sap.com' as the Url and I was successful in opening the site.
Later, when I gave Enterprise Service url and tried to preview the iView, I got the following exception:
*'http://erp.esworkplace.sap.com/sap/bc/srt/wsdl/sdef_ECC_SALESORDER002QR/wsdl11/ws_policy/document?sap-client=800
Error # 401'*
I ll need to give username and password. But how do i give them as parameters?
Please note, these parameteres are appended to the Url. So, I fear that if url of Enterprise service is changed, then it wont open.
what do you think ?

Need to use JMS in Web service for PUB/SUB pattern

Hi All,
I have JMS configured in my Web logic server 10.3.4.
I have stand alone program for JMS in PUB/SUB pattern.
I have Web service application with Apache CXF framework.
Now, the problem I need to integrate JMS in my web service application for new web service with PUB/SUB pattern.
Can any one guide me to this.
I am trying to use @WLJmsTransport annotation provided by Weblogic. Is this approach is correct?
And It is giving error during deployment that weblogic.jws.WLJmsTransport is not allowed as it is a JAX-WS type web service.
I think It is creating problem with annotation parameters.
I am using annotation like @WLJmsTransport(contextPath="transports", serviceUri="JMSTransport", queue="Queue", portName="JMSTransportServicePort")
and ConnectionFactory with name ConnectionFactory and JNDI jms/ConnectionFactory, Queue with name Queue and JNDI jms/Queue, Topic with name Topic and JNDI jms/Topic.
Thanks
Thanks in advance.

Error: Error #2170 Connection Type: Web Service

Hi all,
In BO I have changed the external address on DNS say abc.com
Now when I try to access the dashboard internally it gives the error trying to access xyz.com which was previous external ip.
The error I get is
To access external data, add a cross-domain policy file to the external data web server.
For more information, on the Adobe website, see the article "Cross-domain Policy File Specification".
If the problem persists, contact the file creator or your system administrator.
Error: Error #2170
Connection Type: Web Service
File URL: http://abc.com...
External Data URL: http://xyz.com...."

May be in connections, you have hardcoded the server as xyz.com. It is always advisable to use relative url so that the servername and port is resolved in runtime.
Also, check in CMC > Applications > Web Service > Properties what is the server name specified ? Is it still the old one ?

Urgent: Calling a WebLogic document type Web Service

We have created an one-way, document type web service that works fine with the
clientgen client. When sending the same SOAP message to the service from another
client, it fails with: javax.xml.soap.SOAPException: failed to receive message:
The other client recieves an HTTP 500.
The signature for the service method is:
public void getDiag(Diagnostic diag)
Diagnostic is a complex type generated by autotype from a schema.
The failing client builds the SOAP message and sends it to the WebLogic service
using HttpURLConnection with the request method set to POST and content-type to
text/xml.

Is there any error on the server?
Did the method on the end componet invoked?
If you are using WLS 8.1, its better to use SAAJ
instead of plain http url connection. Something like:
SOAPConnectionFactory factory =
SOAPConnectionFactory.newInstance();
SOAPConnection connection =
factory.createConnection();
SOAPMessage response =
connection.call( request, targetURL );
Here is a working example:

Expose userid field in the Check in/out web service

Hello
I need to integrate the Check in/out web services into a InfoPath Library Form. I have the webservices added and working properly. My progress thus far:
              -CheckinFile, CheckOutFile, UndoCheckOut data connections are added
              -Necessary rules are built
              -Web services appear to work correctly EXCEPT
1. I receive an error if the form is opened in Browser, but not when opened in InfoPath Filler. This is a problem because most of our users do not have InfoPath installed. So we have a need to open in Browser or dialog.
2. Once the file is checked back in, the field "Checked Out To" defaults to an application ID.
So two issues:
How to open the form in Browser
How to set the Checked Out To field to the current user.
From what I have been told, I need to expose the userid element in InfoPath designer.

Hello,
I have not tried this yet but you can just follow hilary suggestion to check in/out form when it opens.Make sure your versioning is enabled in library.

What the mechanism of the Java Proxy for Web Services in WLS 8.1

Hi, all;
I try to find out how the java proxy of web service in weblogic server 8.1
works. Suppose I use the java Proxy of a WebSerice in a client application whatever
whithin or outside the application of the web service, does the proxy actually:
1. translate my java arguments objects in XML to create SOAP msg,
2. then send the msg across the network, and web service also response SOAP msg,
3. then proxy translate it into return value of the method call ?
If that is true , the Java Proxy seems very inefficient, right?
Can any body tell me how the proxy works ?
regards,
shannon

Hi Shannon,
The type of proxy I'm familiar with is at the http connection level and
associated with the networking properties in the JDK, See:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/net/properties.html
Your question may be related to JWS proxies, See:
http://edocs.bea.com/workshop/docs81/doc/en/workshop/guide/howdoi/howUseTheJavaProxyForAWebService.html
You may want to ask this question in the workshop newsgroup.
Hope this helps,
Bruce

A Quality report as a tool for the Quality management of Web services

Hi everybody,
I would like to explain and discuss my current research project with you:
The differentiation from competitors is crucial for the economic success of a product. This differentiation can be achieved in addition to price and the date of the market entry through the product quality. To differentiate the quality of products, it is necessary to distinguish between several relevant product characteristics, to determine their values, to evaluate these values and to relate this evaluation to the evaluation of other products. Techniques for the determination of the quality of a product are used in many areas of the quality management, e.g. in the quality assessment.
Web Services are software systems supporting a machine-machine interaction over a network. Web services are often used as modules in different software architectures, especially in Service-oriented architectures (SOA).
In the course of quality management of a Web service applied in software consequently needs appropriate procedures and quality models as means to determine the quality. As there is a lack, research is needed in this field.
In order to eliminate the described deficit, a procedure is to develop that helps to determine the quality of a Web service. A report is conceivable which integrates all relevant views, all influences on the quality and all phases of the life cycle of a Web services.
During the research a lot of similarities between Life cycle assessments of environmental management and the quality management have been identified. These similarities include e.g. principles, procedures and the terminology. Since the Life cycle assessments relate on the product life cycle, on the stakeholders and on all relevant product characteristics, an adaption of the method on the quality management of software seems to be promising.

I would like to answer the following two research questions:
- Is it possible to adapt the principles and procedures of Life cycle assessment and Sustainability reporting to the quality management of Web services?
- Is a quality report based on these findings an appropriate tool for quality management?
Do you have any experiences with the quality management of Web services? Which procedures do you use to determine the quality of Web services? How are your experiences with that procedures? Where are their weaknesses?

How to create a proxy to retrieve the xml file from web services

Hi Every one,
We have a requirment where we receive a xml file from Kenexa, a third party HR tool using a middleware tool. from SAP side We have to create a proxy to retrieve the xml file from web services by initiating call through middleware tool i used earlier.
these are the steps i intend to follow to accomlish the requirement.
1) middleware tool has to initiate the call to kenexa web services to receive the xml file when it is available.
2) On SAP we need to create a ABAP Proxy service provider to middleware where this file can be received.
Can any one guide me how i can create a proxy to retrieve the xml file from web services by initiating call through other middlewre (its not PI).
Any help would be really great, i am not a ABAP developer, so please help me with this. Thanks.

Thank for reply.
The computers are in different locations, but yes it's possible, the users in this enviroment are all local administrator of the machines, and we can distribute the script centrally from the DC automatically
Acrobat use Java, right? I'm not so expert in java, but something about it could not be so difficult to manage.
Do you know some place where i can get some info about JS and acrobat?

New to Web Services - need to call a HTTPS web service from PL/SQL

I am new to Web Services and need to call HTTPS web service from PL/SQL program. I am using 10g Database.
I have been reading there are 2 options -
1. UTL_HTTP - with this package its possible to call HTTPS web services
2. UTL_DBWS
Questions -
1. Is it possible to call a HTTPS web service using UTL_DBWS ? I have not been able to find any information on it.
2. Can someone point me to UTL_HTTP and UTL_DBWS examples calling a HTTPS web service ?
3. The HTTPS web service that I need to call needs username/password to connect - how will I incorporate this in the pl/sql code ?
Appreciate the help.
Cheers,

Hi,
1. UTL_DBWS not work for https from what I understand
2. Here is a sample example:

Otherwice for testing url, i recommand you to use that function: Re: Error using UTL_HTTP over HTTPS
it's a verry helpful function when you have an error.

When testing using UTL_HTTP, you MUST ensure that you open a new session after importing the SSL certificates into your Wallet,
as I've learned (the hard way) that existing sessions point to the wallet contents that were present when the session was opened.
If you don't realise/know this, it can cause a lot of additional frustration during testing, when you keep getting the ORA-29024 exception AFTER
you've imported the SSL certificates................. ;) 3. i think you can use that after the begin_request but not sure :
UTL_HTTP.set_authentication(r => http_req,
username => ,
password => ,
scheme => ,
for_proxy => );

I need help sorting out how Web services work

I'm getting pretty darn confused with all the new terms I have to learn to develop a web service.
I want to deploy a simple java based web service on an IIS/ServletExec machine. To do so the documentation says I have to instal WSDP on the machine. Within a few seconds I get stuck.
When I try to install wsdp 1.6 it asks for a web container. I thought ServletExec is a web container, but it does not recognize it. What is a web container then? Should I just pick one of their options?
Sun Java System Application Server Platform Edition 8.1 Update 2 : What is this thingy? Doe it coem sith j2ee sdk already? If not, why?
Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 Service Pack 3 : What is this> How does it differ from the former thingy?
Tomcat 5.0 for Java WSDP 1.5 : Is this the Tomcat web app server? Does it stack on ServletExec?
I've deployed web pages on ServletExec, but am quite bewildered by the hoard of terms and tools thrown at me by the documentation for web services. What do I really need? It doesn't seem it should require much more than a jsp page would require, but I keep seeing the list of jar files and the like grow.
I need a web services for dummies that specifically deals with ServletExec and Java.
- Extremely confused

A Web container is a part of application server
i.e a web container is contained in application server.
So ServletExec already has a Web Container? All Web App Servers have a web container?
A Web Server is responsible only for web related
applications like JSP, Servlets, Web services, etc.
but an appliocation server can deploy EJB's also.
I thought the Web Server managed html and passed JSPs, Servlets, and Web Services on to the Web App Server. (With the exception of .NET type applications which run entirely on the front end Web Server). At least that is how we have our machine configured.
IIS, the Web Server, runs on a machine outside the firewall. It serves up all static html pages. All references to dynamic html (JSPs and Servlets) are forwarded to a Servlet Exec instance, the Web App Server, on a machine behind the firewall.
IIS can not process Web Services outside a .NET-type configuration. The documentation has led me to believe that I have to deploy a Java web service on a Web App Server like ServletExec.

Sun Java System Application Server Platform Edition 8.1 Update 2
is an application server provided by sun.
But the installation called it a web container. You just called it an applciation server. But you also said earlier that an applciation server is not a web container, but rather contains a web container. Should they have called it an applciation server.
(Just to make sure - application server = web app server, right?)
You can download bundle which contains j2eesdk
and application server together or you can download
seperately. Both these options are available on Sun's website.
I do believe ServletExec comes with j2eesdk, as I was able to run servlets without installing it. Though I did install jdk 1.5 and use it as my virtual machine when running Java, including any servlets.
Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 is responsible only
for web related applications like JSP, Servlets, Web services
etc but Sun application server 8.2 can deploy EJB's also.
So Web Server 6.1 is a front end web server which also serves up JSPs without having to call an application server? You only need an application server if you want to do EJBs?
Tomcat 5.0 for Java WSDP 1.5 : Is this the Tomcat web app server?WSDP containts several library files and other files
which are necessary for running a web service.
( lib files for sending and recieving SOAP request and
response i.e mail.jar activation.jar, saaj .jar ....etc).
It is not an application server. It acts as a supportive
role for creating and deploying web services.
That's what I thought. But I also thought Tomcat 5.0 IS a web app server (wheras Apache is the Web Server). It says "Tomcat 5.0 for Java WSDP 1.5" which does not make sense to me. Iwould think it would say "Java WSDP 1.5 for Tomcat 5.0" instead. What exaclty are they offering to download? WSDP or Tomcat? And if Tomcat, why are they calling it a web container when it is an application server? WSDP is not a web container, right? just some lib files for supporting web services.
Regards,
Piyush- still quite confused but grateful for your comments

Do we need the Loadrunner vuser type "web services"?
