WebService calling from Pocket PC

WebService calling from Pocket PC

• leightonr

  hi, try to do this,

  when u create the webservice using VS 2005 right then while selecting the ne project select the http option in the file path, coz, anytime time u run the service u would get different generated port number associated with it. in ur case

  "http://172.19.57.182:100/MyWebService/Service.asmx";

  so just provide as
  

  http://172.19.57.182/MyWebService/Service.asmx while creating the project so u wont get the port number and then try.
  

  
  

  and 1 another thing, dnt provide the url, just when consuming the service use "add web reference"

  by right clicking on the project name.

  There's only one WebException thrown from this location and it's thrown if server returns error status. You can check Status property of that exception and Response property for diagnostics.

  With "localhost" issue corrected, can you reach this WS from PIE on device If you can not, you have network issue for your (or your IT department) to fix.

  Thank you Ilya,
  
  This is the code for Exception catching..
  -----------------------------------------
  private void buttonRequest_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
  {
  try
  {
  textBoxResponse.Text = wsTestService.HelloWorld("From PDA");
  }
  catch (WebException ex)
  {
  textBoxResponse.Text = "WebException : " + ex.Message;
  textBoxResponse.Text +="\r\nStackTrace= " + ex.StackTrace.ToString();
  textBoxResponse.Text += "\r\nResponse= " + ex.Response;
  textBoxResponse.Text += "\r\nStatus= " + ex.Status;
  }
  catch (Exception ex)
  {
  textBoxResponse.Text = ex.Message; ;
  }
  }
  ------------------------------------------
  This is the result...
  
  

  WebException : WebException

  StackTrace= at System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol.doInvoke()

  at PDAWebConsumer.HostWebService.TestWebService2.HelloWorld()

  at PDAWebConsumer.PDAWebConsumerForm.buttonRequest_Click()

  at System.Windows.Forms.Control.OnClick()

  at System.Windows.Forms.Button.OnClick()

  at System.Windows.Forms.ButtonBase.WnProc()

  at System.Windows.Forms.Control._InternalWnProc()

  at Microsoft.AGL.Forms.EVL.EnterMainLoop()

  at System.Windows.Forms.Application.Run()

  at PDAWebConsumer.Program.Main()

  Response= System.Net.HttpWebResponse

  Status= ProtocolError

  ------------------------
  
  Any Idea
  
  Thanks

  You server returned error message instead of XML data.

  You should now GetResponseStream() from response and print it out to figure our why server is complaining. It would be normal HTML WEB error, e.g. "404 Page not found".

  I suspect you have security issues, though. Most likely your server is configured to serve requests from local host only and reject all others.

  Yes. I can reach to WebService using Pocket IE by direct typing as -
  http://MyHostComputerName/TestWebService2/TestWebService2.asmx
  
  
  May be there is an error or missing something in my code
  
  public partial class PDAWebConsumerForm : Form
  {
  HostWebService.TestWebService2 wsTestService = new HostWebService.TestWebService2();
  public PDAWebConsumerForm()
  {
  InitializeComponent();
  wsTestService.Url = "http://MyHostComputerName/TestWebService2/TestWebService2.asmx";
  }
  private void buttonRequest_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
  {
  //Error happens here. It does not say anything except "WebException".
  textBoxResponse.Text = wsTestService.HelloWorld("From PDA");
  }
  }
  
  Any suggestion please..

  Looks good to me… You’re no longer getting "No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it", right What’s the stack trace for this exception

  
  
  

• tickling

  Thank You Ilya Tumanov,
  
   It was a Proxy authentication error.
   You answer to check Status property of that exception and Response property for diagnostics led me to the solution.
   I have solved it.
  
  Thanks again

  txtName.Text = obj.HelloWorld();

  }

  
  catch (System.Net.WebException ex)
  {
  txtName.Text = "WebException:=" + ex.Message;
  txtName.Text+= "\r\nStackTrace:=" + ex.StackTrace.ToString();
  txtName.Text+= "\r\nResponse:=" + ex.Response;
  txtName.Text+= "\r\nStatus:= " + ex.Status;
  }

  ex.Message
