calling webservice from rpgle

["Nico Devriendt" <Nico.Devriendt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

   Hello Scott,


   I've read your article 'RPG as a Web Service consumer' on
   systeminetwork.com. Based on this article I want to connect to a web
   service from RPGLE. I've made a very simple Hello World web service.
   The soap request looks as follows:


   POST /zkhnet/webservices/service.asmx HTTP/1.1

   Host: rembert2

   Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8

   Content-Length: length

   SOAPAction: "http://tempuri.org/HelloWorld";


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

   <soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
   xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
   xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/";>

     <soap:Body>

       <HelloWorld xmlns="http://tempuri.org/"; />

     </soap:Body>

   </soap:Envelope>


   In my RPGLE program I make the following soap string to send it to the
   webservice.


       SOAP = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="US-ASCII">
   '

    +' <soap:Envelope
   xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; '

             + ' xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
   '

             + ' xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/";>
   '

             + ' <soap:Body> '

             + ' <HelloWorld xmlns="http://tempuri.org/"; />
   '

             + ' </soap:Body>
   '

             + ' </soap:Envelope>
   ';


   And then I try to connect to the web service with the following code:


   url = 'http://128.128.128.2/zkhnet/webservices/'

       + 'service.asmx';


   rc = http_url_post_xml( url

                     : %addr(SOAP) + 2

                            : %len(SOAP)

                            : *NULL

                            : %paddr(Incoming)

                            : %addr(TRNS)

                            : HTTP_TIMEOUT

                            : HTTP_USERAGENT

                            : 'text/xml'

                            : 'http://tempuri.org/HelloWorld');


   When I use the soap action ('http://tempuri.org/HelloWorld') I get the
   error HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request. When I use *blanks as soap action in
   the last parameter I get the error 'HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server
   Error'.


   Do you know what I'm doing wrong ? When I look at the loggings on my
   webserver I see that I'm connected with the webservice and I see also
   the 400 & 500 error codes.


   Thanks for your time and answer
