Datastore for SOAP-based https web service

[RichS]

Trying to consume a https web service exposed by Dun and Bradstreet using Data Services (4.2 sp11 Windows server 2012)

I have read through the previous questions on this topic without a suitable answer.

I've also tried the steps in https://launchpad.support.sap.com/#/notes/1771712 with no luck.

Hoping someone can provide assistance.

Here's what I've done.

• Installed SoapUI on my BODS job server and tested the web service successfully
• Created a datastore in Designer of type "Web Service SOAP" and provided the URL for the WSDL
• Imported the desired function into the datastore
• Wrote a job with a dataflow to format a request and invoke the function in the same manner as was done with SoapUI.
• Followed instructions in aforementioned SAP note to save a server certificate and edit the axis2.xml file.

When I run the job, it fails with the dreaded and not-so-informative error: There is no response for the web service <ws_USPGX>. Ensure that the network, web server, and service are running properly...Also ensure that the service client call time out is set properly.

I have read about looking in the axis2_log.txt file for information but mine is empty and has not been modified. I tried running the job from command line with the -D option but axis2_log.txt is still empty.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what else to try?

I must be missing something simple. Note that I have used web service datastores successfully before but all have been http and not https.

Instead of soap try rest data store it may work. In my current project we are trying soap but it not useful so we are using rest

By using soap ui there we configure the link we generate the structure of table so we consume the structure by using datastore

Thank you for the response but we do not have the option to switch to a RESTful web service for this.
