TNS:Operation Timed Out error while trying to invoke BPEL Process from sql

Question

Hi,
I am trying to invoke a BPEL Process from PL/sql code. When i try to invoke the process, I am getting the following error message
ORA-29273 HTTP Request Failed
ORA:06512: at SYS.UTH_HTTP at line 1029
ORA:12535: TNS:Operation Timed Out
ORA:06512: at line 18
I have the SOA suite installed on my local machine...and the BPEL process that i am trying to invoke is deployed their.
Any idea what could be wrong..following is the code piece
soap_request:='<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<soap:Header/>
<soap:Body xmlns:ns1="http://xmlns.oracle.com/Test">
<ns1:TesProcessRequest><ns1:input>is1_1land</ns1:input></ns1:TesProcessRequest>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>';
dbms_output.put_line('soap_request: '||soap_request);
utl_http.set_proxy('3.209.30.25:80', '3.209.32.149:8888');
http_req:= utl_http.begin_request('http://3.209.32.149:8888/orabpel/default/Tes/1.0 '
               ,'POST'
                              ,'HTTP/1.1');
dbms_output.put_line('after Begin Request' );
utl_http.set_header(http_req, 'Content-Type', 'text/xml') ;
Please advise

Answer 1

you are right the file adapter doesnt invoke any bpel
process, instead it is polling the file from
directory location?If it is polling for new files, shouldn't it create a new instance of the BPEL process automatically the moment it finds a new file? In other words, should a new file trigger an instance of the BPEL process rather than being started from PL/SQL?
Can this file adapter not be invoked as bpel process
in that case?The file adapter is part of a BPEL process. The BPEL process can be invoked from e.g. PL/SQL.
In this case this file adapeter return to an RECEIVE
activity...I think this receive cannot be invoked as
a BPEL process rite?Can you explain what you mean with this?
Also , will all synchronous request return "TIMEOUT"
error, if tried to invoke from pl/sql?Only if the synchronous process instance takes more time to complete (and thus to return) than the value specified for a time-out to occur. If the instance completes in for example 10 ms and the time-out time is specified as 30 seconds, no time-out will occur.
