incorrect url to call a wsdl of sap web service

[Former Member]

hi all,

i need to validate a wsdl of one and for this , i should give as input an url :

http://hca-ecc.hca.group:8000/sap/bc/srt/wsdl/bndg_DD952C5B02C231F19D4D001C23D2E187/wsdl11/allinone/...

i m connected to the distant sap portail via vpn, but i don't know what should i add to this url that it can work

any one who have any idea plz

thnkx in advance

first, you need to be on a network with a domain name server able to resolve the hostname hca-ecc.hca.group; group is no official top level domain, so an ordinary DNS cannot resolve it;

second, the semicolon( between 800 and sap-user is wrong; it is supposed to be an ampersand(&);

third, you forgot to tell us what exactly your problem is.

i m connected via vpn to this domain, i m using this tool to validate my wsdl ,

www.methods.net/v2/tools.po

before trying to generate the stub of this wsdl to integrate it with an blackberry jde, when trying to generate the stub i got error that mean i m not connected to the domain area , so and i read that http dosn't support parameter of password and ..

i need https , i need a valide url to get connected to this wsdl

sorry, i don't understand you, but the URL/tool (www.methods.net) you mention is crap. don't know what you are doing with that.

with all due respect I believe that your main problem is that you don't know anything about networking at all. and it is unfortunate to try to work on a project involving networking and not knowing anything about it.

you might want to try to outsource your problem to a software development company. well, unless, of course, you are not supposed to be that development company.

ok, well , i tried to explain u py prooblem, but as u look so exppert in sap, tell me how could i have just one months in sap developpement and work on sap soa, more over how could i did know that sap webservice are not restful !!!

second, as u r an expert in networking could u tell me how could i access to my wsdl of my sap web service that are deployed on sap portail via a correct url ???

http://hca-ecc.hca.group:8000/sap/bc/srt/wsdl/bndg_DD952C5B02C231F19D4D001C23D2E187/wsdl11/allinone/...

if i wanna to be connected to this wsdl via an other ide for example "MDS studio" i had just to give this url :

http://hca-ecc.hca.group:8000/sap/bc/srt/wsdl/bndg_DD952C5B02C231F19D4D001C23D2E187/wsdl11/allinone/...

without connection parameter , i got a pop up open, i give my username and password and the connection works (i do get connected via pop up which means i m conencted on that domain !!!)

but on this tool that i need http://xmethods.net/ve2/Tools.po (click on the first link that gools ganna gives u "www.xmethods.net" )

i need to validate this wsdl, or i need to generate a stub from this wsdl and iin both case , i need a correct url to get connected even if it display me a pop up but it just don't work ..(i m not a networking engineer so help if u r one !!! as u claimed !!)

it just giving me when i give the url on this site that :error Could not obtain data from connection ..!!!

I hope u have an idea write now, so just don't prejuge people as fast as u did..yeh i m still a newbie

PS: have u any idea how to access an sap web service other than via endpoint which is wsdl, is there any other manner to acces it from extern without calling his wsdl !!!!!!!

are you aware of the fact that in your earlier post you gave us a wrong url for that 'test tool'? it was www.methods.net instead of www.Xmethods.net. Please, try out the difference yourself.

now, a little networking, only a little:

what do you think, what happens if you enter the URL in that input field on the Xmethods site? I tell you.

The URL is send to the Xmethods server at www.xmethods.net. The xmethod server itself tries to call that URL but since it is not on your VPN it has no chance to resolve the server address of the hca-ecc.hca.group because .group is a private top level domain.

if that hca-ecc.hca.group server has a public IP address (which I doubt it has) supply the service at Xmethods this public IP, otherwise Xmethods wont be able to call your WSDL and therefore you can't validate it with this service.

i'm no networking expert at all but I have as much knowhow as an application developer has to have so that he doesn't stumble at the first possible occasion. But I am sorry that you received my advice to learn the basics or leave it as being rude.

Sorry.
