Re: web services ConvertTemp -- WEB400

Start over. Take a screen shot of every screen right before you click on next or finish. When you are done, and have your error, upload all the screens to imgur or somewhere like that. Then we can see exactly what you did, and exactly what is wrong. I think I overwrote my screen 3 from the setup of the server with my finished product screen shot. Except for that missing screen this is everything from walking through the example given in the link below.

Tim, I have already done this, At least 3 times, plus several jabs at various parts of it. I am not the brightest guy in the room, but I can successfully click the next button repeatedly.

I have also tried a half dozen times, at least, with a REST web service.

You appear to be trying to come up with a REST syntax URI to invoke a web service that is designed and implemented as a SOAP service.

That's what it looked like to me too.

My advice would be to concentrate on the REST API, do not bother with SOAP, it's bloated, it overly complicates the issue and is a dying protocol anyway. Follow the instructions in this link and ignore anything to do with SOAP!

Booth: (Private reply)
SOAP and REST are not synonyms and are not "interchangeable."

If you read the instructions for IWS, you will see that you must decide, "up front" whether you want a given web service to be either SOAP or REST, and it must be told that at "design time" because IWS will generate different "wrapper" code based on which method you choose.

works. It asks for me to fill in (TEMPIN>?<TEMPIN> and then it it
correctly populates <TEMPOUT><TEMPOUT>

It never asks for FtoC or CtoF, which surprises me. ConvertTemp is
already set up when the application server is created, and so far as I
know, it is SOAP.

In your example URI "web/services/ConvertTempService/ConvertTemp" it looks like you might be either confusing the SOAP and REST implementations or the service program name and the mapped resource name that points to it. ...
