Hi friends,

I’m completely new to WSDL so please be tolerant if I’m asking a very stupid question. )

I tried running the code and am receiving the following error message..

Ruby – 1.8.6
HttpClient- 2.1.2
soap4r – 1.5.8

D:\Sample_Code\RubyWebServices_SOAP_Amazon\lib>ruby AWSECommerceServiceClient.rb -d

c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/httpclient.rb:1497:in `initialize’: The requested address is not valid in its context. – connect(2) (://:0) (Errno::EADDRNOTAVAIL)

Hi All,

I have a different type of problem.

One of our client had created a WSDL in ASP and sent it over asking us to implement the same structure in ruby. I need to write a server app using these WSDLs.

wsdl2ruby.rb –wsdl /home/Test.wsdl –type server –force

using this command i got 4 ruby files such as… default.rb, defaultServant.rb, defaultMappingRegistry.rb, TestService.rb

using these files how can i write a webservice server applicaiton?

Thanks in advance,

Vipin

name spacing and xsi:type is not correct
in the body and Envelope tag is env: it should be soap: in my case also
the Procedure being called must be prefixed with tms: and the arguments must have a xsi:type=”xsd…..”
namely the missing xsi:type is going wrong here.. how can I add this. I used wsdl2ruby to create the objects…

This articled helped me to get started with Amazon ECS API.

One thing I’ve noticed is

- the new API uses slightly different variable names. i.e. lowercase i in itemLookUp. and itemLookUpResponse.items

I wrote an article about using ruby soap4r wsdl. Brendon Wilson did a great job at getting me going with web services with ruby. Let me know if this helps anyone.
