Error with webservice in XML spy

[Former Member]

Hey guys

i m importing a webservice for a sample SOAP scenario from /people/shabarish.vijayakumar/blog/2006/03/23/rfc--xi--webservice--a-complete-walkthrough-part-1 (its the same webservice used by shabarish in his blog).

when i open this webservice in Altova XML spy it gives me an error sayin that

<wsdlsoap:operation> has empty or missing soapAction attribute.

my WSDL file is

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

i can see that the soapAction attribute is missing but what do i need to put for that or will this WSDL work for my scenario?

thanx

Even when I have this error message in Altova XMLSpy I do not have any problems to send a SOAP request from menu: SOAP -> Create SOAP request using this WSDL.

If it does not work for you, you can implement the weblog scenario as well, as XMLSpy is not required.
