PeopleSoft Wiki

Just wanted to say "Thanks" for posting this. I was looking for a good way to test a Web Service before just dumping on the third-party for testing and the only thing I could find was Oracle's JDeveloper. Then I found this. It was quick and easy to get setup and running. I am still having trouble figuring out the security, where I want the connection to go through as a specific user, not the "default" App Server user or XMLLINK user.

Thanks for the post about soapUI. PushToTest TestMaker is an open source test platform that repurposes soapUI tests to be functional tests, load and performance tests, and business service production monitors. A tutorial on using soapUI in TestMaker is at http://www.pushtotest.com/tutorials/soapuitutorialfull

Thanks!

That looks very promising. Thanks for post.

Thank you for posting this. Someday I will return the favor to you.

Hi
Does any body know what would be best way to delete data through Web Service? We used to do it Collection.deleteItem(i) for CI but with CI-Based Web Service am unable to find a delivered way to do it? Will I have to write and expose custom method? Any suggestion would be appreciated.

Can you use the Update or UpdateData methods to remove the keys and therefore delete an entry through a SOAP request?

I used the instructions provided in the article "Component Interface based Web Services" (http://www.peoplesoftwiki.com/component-interface-based-web-services) and was able to successfully provide a web service and view the WSDL for interfacing with the PeopleSoft delivered Message Catalog component.

I was also able to create a new project in soapUI after using the URL to the WSDL provided by PeopleSoft.

However when I double-click on the generated request for the get method the SOAP envelope, that looks like the one below, is missing the MESSAGE_SET_NBR tags where I can enter test data.

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:m14="http://xmlns.oracle.com/Enterprise/FSCM/schema/M141479.V1">
<soapenv:Header/>
<soapenv:Body>
<m14:GetCompIntfcHD_MSGCTLG_CI/>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

I was able to add the Message Tag (as shown below) and test successfully
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:m14="http://xmlns.oracle.com/Enterprise/FSCM/schema/M141479.V1">
<soapenv:Header/>
<soapenv:Body>
<m14:GetCompIntfcHD_MSGCTLG_CI>
<m14:MESSAGE_SET_NBR>1</m14:MESSAGE_SET_NBR>
</m14:GetCompIntfcHD_MSGCTLG_CI>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

But I am still interested in finding out why the tag did not get self-created when I imported the WSDL. It would be helpful especially when I have a CI that has a lot of data elements. Any help or comments are appreciated.

Any Idea why I am getting this error?

ERROR:java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out: connect

Sounds like a general integration broker error - can you confirm integration broker is running on your system?

As suggested above, I add the following to my SOAP request header

<wsse:Security soap:mustUnderstand="1"
xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap/"
xmlns:wsse="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-secext-1.0.xsd">
<wsse:UsernameToken>
<wsse:Username>PS</wsse:Username>
<wsse:Password>PS</wsse:Password>
</wsse:UsernameToken>
</wsse:Security>

But when I use soapUI to make the request, I get the following error:

…
<faultcode>SOAP-ENV:Server</faultcode>
<faultstring>PeopleSoftTargetConnector:Unable to decrypt the password</faultstring>
…

and the only way to get things working again is to roll the server processes on the integration gateway machine. Any ideas how to resolve this?
