Changing the soap:address location

clarkvalentine Dec 16, 2008 4:35 PM

I have a web service working fine when the client and server are on the same machine. Now I want to test if the client can work when running on a different host than what hosts the service.

To compile the client, I'm using the wsdl automatically generated when my service .jar is deployed to jboss. However, I can't figure out how to change the address of the server to reflect the actual URL of the hosted service. Right now it says '<soap:address location="http://127.0.0.1:8080/blah/blah"/>' - I want to change it to '<soap:address location="http://hostname:8080/blah/blah"/>' without hacking the server-side wsdl file manually.

How do I do that? I'm sure it's in a config XML file somewhere, but I can't seem to find it.

I'm running jboss 4.2.3.GA on Windows XP.

Thanks,

Try this. First, run the app server using -b 0.0.0.0 so that it does not bind to localhost. Second, when running wsconsume, pass the host's name or IP address, example:

wsconsume http://somehostname:8080/path/to/the.wsdl

Peter -

I will definitely try that.

Do you know of a way to do that in NetBeans, by chance? I can certainly do it at the command line, but my project team are all using netBeans. Perhaps I should post that question over on the NetBeans forums...

Thanks!

No, I do not know how to do that in NetBeans. I use Eclipse, but only as a glorified text editor. When it comes to things like this (or compiling, packaging, or deploying) I revert to the command line (or Ant or Maven) so that I can keep my sanity.
