Hi All,
 
I'm trying to do a simple AXL request that works in V6, but returns nothing (no error, empty response) in V7/V8
 
It doesn't even throw an error if you give it the wrong credentials....
 
Does anyone have a AXL 'test' tool I could use, then I could check whats happening with WireShark or something similar....
 
Cheers,
 
Paul
 
 
This is the request:-
 
 
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV='http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/' xmlns:xsi='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance' xmlns:xsd='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema'>
<SOAP-ENV:Body>
<axl:getCCMVersion xmlns:axl='http://www.cisco.com/AXL/1.0' sequence='1'>
<searchString>%</searchString>
</axl:getCCMVersion>
</SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
 
Here is the code (VBScript/VB6 for simplicity)
 
 
 
 
        ' Create an xmlhttp object:
        Dim xml As New ServerXMLHTTP60
       
       
104     seqID = seqID + 1

106     xml.setOption 2, SXH_SERVER_CERT_IGNORE_ALL_SERVER_ERRORS
108     xml.open "POST", "https://192.168.1.156:8443/axl/", False, "ccmuser","ccmpass"
 
       'Add Proper Headers
110     a = EncodeBase64("ccmuser" & ":" & "ccmpass")       <-- this becomes:    QQBYAEwAdQBzAGUAcgA6AEEAWABMAHUAcwBlAHIA
112     xml.setRequestHeader "Authorization", "Basic " & a
114     xml.setRequestHeader "Content-type", "text/xml"
118     xml.setRequestHeader "POST", "8443/axl"
120     xml.setRequestHeader "Accept", "text/xml"

        ' Actually Sends the request and returns the data:

        reqStr = "<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV='http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/' xmlns:xsi='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance' xmlns:xsd='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema'><SOAP-ENV:Body><axl:getCCMVersion xmlns:axl='http://www.cisco.com/AXL/1.0' sequence='1'><searchString>%</searchString></axl:getCCMVersion></SOAP-ENV:Body></SOAP-ENV:Envelope>"


170     xml.setRequestHeader "Content-length", CStr(Len(reqStr))
172     xml.send reqStr

174     getSoapRequest = xml.responseText             <---- The response here is always empty
176     Set xml = Nothing

You appear to be missing the "SOAPAction" HTTP header.

Look at the "AXL Versioning Support" section in the XML Developer Guide.

Thanks for the quick reply - I did, but there is no mention of SOAPAction for requests like:-
 
getCCMVersion
 
When I look through the AXLAPO.wdsl, I found this definition

 
   


 
So added




 
 
Still no error, and no response.

Assunto: New Message from Paul McGuinness in Administration XML (AXL) - Administration XML Questions: RE: No response at all from AXL requests on V7 or V8

Paul McGuinness has created a new message in the forum "Administration XML Questions":

--------------------------------------------------------------
SOLVED!


My Encode64 function wasn't working... it would have been nice for something (possibly in the MSXML handler) to complain about bad credentials though LOL
