I am trying to get Ruby to interface with Alfresco web services. I am following the instructions on the wiki (http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Web_Service_Samples_for_Ruby). I am successfully authenticating with the server and getting a ticket, but any operations after that seem to be failing with the following message in the Ruby console:
#<SOAP::Mapping:bject:0x34b82d4>: Server Error (SOAP::FaultError)
One thing that may be causing this is that the wiki says:
"In addition to installing this library, and because this library is not fully implemented, you will have to patch it with the patch containing MessageText code instead of the default MessageDigest."
I could not find any documentation on what that meant on the wiki or by doing an pretty extensive Google search. So, I have not done any patching.
Here is the sample code I am trying to run, and it is pretty much like the code in the Wiki.
I have tried with the commented out query as well and that ended up with the same result.
Does anyone have any ideas what I am doing wrong? Or, do you have any suggestions on at least finding out where the problem is? I could not find anything in the alfresco log.
I know this is an old thread, but hope someone can help me. I'm trying to access an alfresco 3.2 instance from a ruby app. Followed every step described on the wiki, and ended up here, still getting the same error bdunbar mentioned. I've downloaded the project on http://forge.alfresco.com/projects/ruby/ but don't really understand the right way to apply the mentioned patch. Can somebody share any tip about how do the patch? Any help would be really appreciated.
