Hi All,

I'm working on repairing a web service for a customer.
Their old Win2000 web server's disks blow up and with them a web service I wrote for them 2 years or more ago.
It was used for the "automatic updates" process I wrote for them.

A new server win2003 is in place, I had to rebuild the COM DLL from scratch as there was no backup, and up to there, everything is ok.
It works very well in my testing as a class and as a COM dll.
As there is no VFP installed in the server, I'm using a command window emulator program and again, the COM server methods work very well.

The problem is, I can't make the Web Service work, I'm generating the WSDL and asp listener on the server using the SOAP toolkit 3.0 WSDL Generator and I'm able to register the web service from my working machine, but it is failing with

This error when using Rick's SOAP Method Tester form:

Error occurred: 
WSDLReader:None of the matching operations for soapAction http://70.46.84.122/wsupdater/action/wsupdater.GetSys0 could successfully load the incoming request. Potential typemapper problem

And with this error when testing it using VFP's XML Web services in the task pane:

Error: 1429 - OLE IDispatch exception code 0 from WSDLOperation: WSDLOperation:Instantiating the dispatch object for method GetSys0 failed HRESULT=0x80040154: Class not registered
 - Server:An unanticipated error occurred during the processing of this request. HRESULT=0x80040154: Class not registered

Which is not true, the COM server is registered and working.

Please help, I'm puzzled, today up to now (10:19 PM Sunday) I tried everything (generating the wsdl in vfp locally and then copying to the server, different options in the soap wsdl generator, etc) in order to make the Web Service work without success and I'm running out of ideas and time.

Many thanks in advance,


Max
