Define Webservice. SOAP Problem

23 Views

Hello,

I tried to create a webservice in directory and test it with XMLSpy. The szenario should just take the information out of the SOAP and write it to an file.

This blog helped me a little:

/people/siva.maranani/blog/2005/09/03/invoke-webservices-using-sapxi

But when I try to call this webservice in XMLSpy he gives back an HTTP Error. I also have a Perl-Skript for testing and he said : "Header missing in SOAP-Message Header".

So what to do? The mentioned blog said, that I should use this for defining a webservice:

http://host:port/XISOAPAdapter/MessageServlet?channel=:<service>:<channel>

But when I use the button "Propose URL" he said:

http://<server>:8000/sap/xi/engine?type=entry

So what's the channel?

Does anyone has a complete walkthrough for establishing a webservice in XI and call it from outside (preffered Java)???

Thanks
