I have the WSDL of a SOAP web service and I am consuming it via my MVC application.
From adding the WSDL as a web service to my Visual Studio solution it automatically creates a proxy class for me and it handles all the serialization/destabilization for me which is really awesome for a while. I have been using this proxy class to call/send my SOAP request to the web service (with pure c# code and no XML involves) and I got my response message back and everything is working great.
However, there is a need now for me to find what is the exact xml representation of the SOAP message that I am sending to the web service. How can I get/find/make this?
you can do it like this
var serxml = new System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer(request.GetType());
var ms = new MemoryStream();
serxml.Serialize(ms, request);
string xml = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(ms.ToArray());
where xml is your raw SOAP

I am trying to call rest service which is creating with WebChannelFactory in soap service. I am using .net framework 4.0.
I have issue with request format.
Unit test and sample aspx page working as expected. But when calling rest service in soap method, request format setted as xml instead of json.
It is look like soap content-type request header used for new rest header.
We neeed new OperationContextScope for rest environment before request like below.
using (OperationContextScope scope = new OperationContextScope((IContextChannel)proxy))
{
proxy.myMethod();
}
I'm making a call to a web service. The call works as expected in most cases. However, sometimes it fails and for troubleshooting, there is always a request from the developer to send them the request xml and if possible the response xml. How do I get this? I tried using fiddler but I don't know if it is because it is https, I only see some tunnel entries but not the xml sent or received. Sample of the web service code is below:
var serviceUrl = "http://190.0.0.1/ServiceLIVE/Service.asmx";
var svc = new LiveEntryService.LiveSoapClient(new BasicHttpBinding("LiveSoap"),new EndpointAddress(serviceUrl));
var ret = svc.MakeLiveEntry(0, "001001002", "002002003", 3, "New Site Data", "004", DateTime.UtcNow);
For serious testing of web services download a copy of SOAP UI today. It is relatively simple to get started with it.
You will be able to see and manipulate your requests and responses. It is really worth using this tool for testing.
Disclaimer: I dont work for SOAP UI.
I've built SOAP based client using wsdl file and it works really good. One issue that I am having now is - I need to see original SOAP format messages (requests and responses) that are being sent and received.
It there any way how I can obtain XML requests/responses?
SomeClient Client = new SomeClient();
var response = Client.SomeMethod();
If this is for debugging purposes you could configure tracing: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ty48b824.aspx. Or use Fiddler to capture HTTP traffic.
I have a WCF service hosted that is returning a byte[] of protobuf-net serialized data. Originally this was hosted over the default webHttpBinding settings (SOAP) and everything was working properly. I recently found out that I need to call HTTP GETs and POSTs directly from our client so I thought it'd be easier to switch to use a RESTful service. I switched to use the WebGet attribute and the WCF REST Template.
I attempted to create a simple web site to test the client and I'm having trouble deserializing the data. This is an example of how I'm calling the service:
using (WebClient client = new WebClient())
{
result = client.DownloadString(url);
}
// Deserialize
BinaryVehicles binVehs;
using (var ms = new MemoryStream(StrToByteArray(result)))
{
binVehs = Serializer.Deserialize<BinaryVehicles>(ms);
}
An example of what is returned in "result":
< base64Binary xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/2003/10/Serialization/">ChsKCzEyMy00NTYtNzg5EgU0NDAwMBoFQmxhY2sKHAoLOTYzLTg1Mi03NDESBTIzMDAwGgZTaWx2ZXI=< /base64Binary>
I also attempted to deserialize the data between the < base64Binary > tags with no results. Does anyone have any idea on how I should go about sending the binary protobuf-net data from an WebGet method and how I should deserialize the data? Thanks.
protobuf-net primarily handles just the serialization aspects (the protobuf spec by Google doesn't define any further than this). So it really comes down to: how are you serializing it?
I must admit that the WCF GET approach is not something I've looked at hugely, so there is no special handling there. One simple approach may be to look at just returning a string, and handling the base-64 encoding yourself, but to be honest if you are doing HTTP GET, then WCF itself seems overkill.
I blogged here about using ASP.NET MVC at the server for protobuf via HTTP GET. The linked sample code also includes a wire-compatible ASP.NET implementation.
If there is something appropriate we can do to make WCF GET easier, I'm all ears...
how to consume php web service in c# Desktop application. I am doing this by adding web reference and through code
WebReference.TestWSDL pdl = new testingApp.WebReference.TestWSDL();
string copy = pdl.verify("testing");
but it throws the error
Possible SOAP version mismatch: Envelope namespace http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/ was unexpected. Expecting http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/.
Make sure you are sending the the appropriate soap version request that the service is expecting ie sending a soap 1.2 request to a service expecting a 1.1 request would give a similar error. Maybe run fiddler and post the messages that are sent and recieved for people to have a look at?
