Nothing pops up for System Alias + creating iview of type webservice in po

[Former Member]

Hi friends,

after logging in into EP i am trying following ..

In Portal content , Under Visual composer. Create a new model of type <b>Iview</b>.

1) creating iview from existing template. The template i am choosing is of type <b>Web service iView</b>.

after number of steps a stage comes where <b>it asks me for System Alias. Its a drop down . however in my case its displaying nothing. and since it is a mandatory field i am not able to move forward.</b>

What might be the reason ?

moved a little forward, created a system as follows.

System Administration, syste configuration , Visual composer, models and created a new system from template of type Web Service System using WSDL URL.

i used the followig URL

<a href="http://www.webservicex.net/ConvertTemperature.asmx?WSDL">http://www.webservicex.net/ConvertTemperature.asmx?WSDL</a>

However whn i test it it says....

Retrieval of default alias successful

<b>Connection failed. Make sure user mapping is set correctly and all connection properties are correct.</b>

what does this mean..

i ignored it and continued with creation of my iView and used this system Alias , <b>however these too it says

"Could not connect to back-end application. Check your system. The server may be down or there may be an error in a system parameter "</b>

what might be the reason..

<b>my aim is to call a web service using this iview</b>

please also let me know if i am moving in right direction
