Using SOAP with Tomcat
SOAP-ENV:Server.BadTargetObjectURI


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



I too have this reoccurring problem � Have any of the individuals who have experienced this problem found a solution yet?


I have carefully followed through O'Reilly's �Hello SOAP!� example step by step.

I deploy the Client Code without any problems as my service shows up on the list of deployed services:


Typing �java org.apache.soap.server.ServiceManagerClient http://localhost:8080/soap/servlet/rpcrouter list� into the command-line yields:


Deployed Services:
urn:examples:helloservice


However, when I try to test the client I get the following error:


Hello SOAP Client
Fault Occurred (details follow):
Fault Code: SOAP-ENV:Server.BadTargetObjectURI
Fault String: Unable to resolve target object:
Fault Occurred. No greeting for you!


After this I modify the client code to use port 8070 so that I may use the TCPTunnelGui tool to view my actual SOAP conversation.


To invoke this TCPTunnelGui Tool I type the following into the command line:


�java org.apache.soap.util.net.TcpTunnelGui 8070 localhost 8080�


I then try to test my client again and get the following SOAP messages within the TCPTunnelGui tool

From localhost:8070 :


POST /soap/servlet/rpcrouter HTTP/1.0
