Authenticate Failure: (404)/AuthenticationService

[manmeet]

Hi All,

I am trying to run the FirstWebServiceClient from the alfresco-community-sdk-1.4.0.zip

Using the Jboss budle of alfresco.
Started Alfresco and then ran the webservice client, but get teh below exception.

Can anyone tell me why I receive such an exception?

Any answers in this regard shall be appreciated.

Thanks,
Manmeet Bhavsar

Solution is the change the repository.location entry in the
webservicecleint.properties to
repository.location=http://hostort/alfresco/api
