Hi all,

The following text is "cut" directly from the VFP8 help under the "Distributing XML Web Services"


To specify a default location for an XML Web service
On the Tools menu, point to Wizards, and click Web Services.
In the dialog box that appears, click OK.
In the Visual FoxPro XML Web Service Location dialog box, to select an existing location to publish your XML Web service, click Existing and select a location in the Select Location (Virtual Directory) box.
-or-

To select a new location, click New, select a location in the Select Location (Virtual Directory) box, click the Ellipsis (...) button to specify a file output path if desired, and type a name for the directory in the New Virtual Directory Name box.

Settings for each XML Web service are preserved so that you can easily update the XML Web service, for example, if the content of the WSDL changes. These settings are stored in the FoxWS3.dbf table in the same directory as the FoxCode.dbf table (_FOXCODE).


My problem is, I never get to the dialog that will allow me to set the default URL after I clicked on the OK button of the confirmation message. I can't manually add it to the FoxWS3.dbf table because it does not exist! I have reinstalled VFP8 and SP1 hoping it will fix this problem but it does not. I have IIS running on my local machine. I have SOAP installed on my machine. This is the first error message I got:

LOTMPPARENT is not an object.
Location: oWeb
Number: 1924
Method: loopvirdirs
Message: lcPath = loTmpParent.Name + "\" + lcPath
Line: 39

Feedbacks highly appreciated.
