Hello Bruce, Does the WSDL specify a different URL for the service? I have had to use the following code because the WSDLs I'm using specify "localhost: 8080": client = Client(url+"?wsdl") client.wsdl.service.setlocation(url) Best, David Norton On Jun 19, 2009, at 8:02 PM, Bruce Edge wrote:

Hey Bruce, Can you paste the <service/> node from the wsdl? -jeff Edge, Bruce wrote:

I have a clue as to why the client instantiation works but the method calls fail. If I instantiate the client using the external IP it works: client = Client(' https://kaan-01.wlv.lsi.com:8443/service-war/dpmcore?wsdl';, wsse=security) However if I use the localhost addr, it fails: (see after trace for possible explanation) client = Client('https://127.0.0.1:8443/service-war/dpmcore?wsdl', wsse=security) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- URLError Traceback (most recent call last) /import/gin/bedge/dev_kaan/Apps/ws/test/<ipython console> in <module>() /import/gin/bedge/dev_kaan/Apps/ws/test/suds/client.pyc in __init__(self, url, **kwargs) 104 options.set(**kwargs) 105 self.options = options --> 106 self.wsdl = Definitions(url, options) 107 self.service = Wrapper(Service(self)) 108 self.factory = Factory(self.wsdl) /import/gin/bedge/dev_kaan/Apps/ws/test/suds/wsdl.pyc in __init__(self, url, options) 169 log.debug('reading wsdl at: %s ...', url) 170 p = Parser(options.transport) --> 171 root = p.parse(url=url).root() 172 WObject.__init__(self, root) 173 self.id = objid(self) /import/gin/bedge/dev_kaan/Apps/ws/test/suds/sax/parser.pyc in parse(self, file, url, string) 131 return handler.nodes[0] 132 if url is not None: --> 133 fp = self.transport.open(Request(url)) 134 sax.parse(fp) 135 timer.stop() /import/gin/bedge/dev_kaan/Apps/ws/test/suds/transport/https.pyc in open(self, request) 58 def open(self, request): 59 self.__addcredentials(request) ---> 60 return HttpTransport.open(self, request) 61 62 def send(self, request): /import/gin/bedge/dev_kaan/Apps/ws/test/suds/transport/http.pyc in open(self, request) 60 u2request = u2.Request(url) 61 self.__setproxy(url, u2request) ---> 62 fp = self.__open(u2request) 63 return cache.put(url, fp) 64 except u2.HTTPError, e: /import/gin/bedge/dev_kaan/Apps/ws/test/suds/transport/http.pyc in __open(self, u2request) 97 return u2.urlopen(u2request) 98 else: ---> 99 return self.urlopener.open(u2request) 100 101 def __setproxy(self, url, u2request): /usr/lib/python2.6/urllib2.pyc in open(self, fullurl, data, timeout) 381 req = meth(req) 382 --> 383 response = self._open(req, data) 384 385 # post-process response /usr/lib/python2.6/urllib2.pyc in _open(self, req, data) 399 protocol = req.get_type() 400 result = self._call_chain(self.handle_open, protocol, protocol + --> 401 '_open', req) 402 if result: 403 return result /usr/lib/python2.6/urllib2.pyc in _call_chain(self, chain, kind, meth_name, *args) 359 func = getattr(handler, meth_name) 360 --> 361 result = func(*args) 362 if result is not None: 363 return result /usr/lib/python2.6/urllib2.pyc in https_open(self, req) 1136 1137 def https_open(self, req): -> 1138 return self.do_open(httplib.HTTPSConnection, req) 1139 1140 https_request = AbstractHTTPHandler.do_request_ /usr/lib/python2.6/urllib2.pyc in do_open(self, http_class, req) 1103 r = h.getresponse() 1104 except socket.error, err: # XXX what error? -> 1105 raise URLError(err) 1106 1107 # Pick apart the HTTPResponse object to get the addinfourl After obtaining a client reference using the external IP, with logging enabled it shows that it's using the localhost address, which fails when used for client instantiation: In [18]: client.service.getOemKey(wsse=security) DEBUG:suds.client:sending to (*https://localhost:8443/service-war/dpmcore*) <<-- should be using external IP here. message: <SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:wsse=" http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-secext... xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:SOAP-ENV=" http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"> <SOAP-ENV:Header> <wsse:Security mustUnderstand="true"> <wsse:UsernameToken> <wsse:Username>dpm</wsse:Username> <wsse:Password>password</wsse:Password> </wsse:UsernameToken> </wsse:Security> </SOAP-ENV:Header> <SOAP-ENV:Body/> </SOAP-ENV:Envelope> DEBUG:suds.client:headers = {'SOAPAction': u'" http://lsi.com/dpm/core/getOemKey"';, 'Content-Type': 'text/xml'} So, I'm guessing that this would work if the client did not swap the external IP used in the client instantiation with the localhost addr used in the method call. Although, why does the localhost addr not work? The localhost addr works fine when used with other clients, like curl, so it's not the service: $> curl -ku dpm:password https://localhost:8443/service-war/dpmcore/getOemKey <soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"><s... xmlns="http://lsi.com/dpm/core/types" xmlns:ns2="http://lsi.com/dpm/types "><oemKey>*DUMMY KEY DATA*</oemKey></get OemKeyResponse></soap:Body></soap:Envelope># -Bruce On Sat, Jun 20, 2009 at 8:46 AM, David Norton <david(a)nortoncrew.com&gt; wrote:
