Setting up environment to use Web Services

[blackadder]

Hi,
I want to use Alfresco web services in my webapp, running on Tomcat 5.5.

I want to know what I need to do to use Alfresco ws.
I already imported the web-service-client and all the dependencies libraries.
I also put the webserviceclient.properties file with my repository server address in my classes folder.
When testing the start session service, I get a WebServiceException. It seems to me I can't connect to the repository. Is my webserviceclient.properties file at the right place?
Is there something else I need to do?
thx
Matt

Hi,

This may be an issue that has already been raised.

What version are you using?

Hello,
I'm using alfresco version 1.3.0,
I've seen similar issues in the forums but none of the answers helped me.

I managed to run succesfully the samples from the sdk, but now I'm trying to integrate the Alfresco's web services in my project.
I put my webserviceclient properties file in the "classes/alfresco" folder but the application always use localhost:8080 as the Alfresco repository address.

Thank you,
Matt

This appears to have been identified as a bug against version 1.2 back in May. (http://issues.alfresco.com/browse/AR-589)

A fix was identified and the status is Resolved, but I found the original code that causes this problem still in the alfresco-community-sdk-1.3.0 source.

Anyone have an ant script to rebuild the web-service-client.jar?

OK, it has been fixed for the version 1.4.0.

Thanks for the help
