How do i consume the w3schools tempCnvertor webservice from the wsdl with netbeans?

Question

I have been trying to consume the w3schools tempConvertor webservice from

https://www.w3schools.com/xml/tempconvert.asmx?WSDL

it gives me this warning messages just before generating the client classes

parsing WSDL...

[WARNING] SOAP port "TempConvertSoap12": uses a non-standard SOAP 1.2 binding. line 147 of file:/C:/Users/Bigesta/Documents/NetBeansProjects/JavaebServiceDemo/xml-resources/web-service-references/tempconvert/wsdl/www.w3schools.com/xml/tempconvert.asmx.wsdl

When ever i try to call the service i get this exceptions

Exception in thread "main" com.sun.xml.internal.ws.client.ClientTransportException: The server sent HTTP status code 301: Moved Permanently at com.sun.xml.internal.ws.transport.http.client.HttpTransportPipe.checkStatusCode(HttpTransportPipe.java:310) at com.sun.xml.internal.ws.transport.http.client.HttpTransportPipe.createResponsePacket(HttpTransportPipe.java:259) at com.sun.xml.internal.ws.transport.http.client.HttpTransportPipe.process(HttpTransportPipe.java:217) at com.sun.xml.internal.ws.transport.http.client.HttpTransportPipe.processRequest(HttpTransportPipe.java:130) at com.sun.xml.internal.ws.transport.DeferredTransportPipe.processRequest(DeferredTransportPipe.java:95) at com.sun.xml.internal.ws.api.pipe.Fiber.__doRun(Fiber.java:1121) at com.sun.xml.internal.ws.api.pipe.Fiber._doRun(Fiber.java:1035) at com.sun.xml.internal.ws.api.pipe.Fiber.doRun(Fiber.java:1004) at com.sun.xml.internal.ws.api.pipe.Fiber.runSync(Fiber.java:862) at com.sun.xml.internal.ws.client.Stub.process(Stub.java:448) at com.sun.xml.internal.ws.client.sei.SEIStub.doProcess(SEIStub.java:178) at com.sun.xml.internal.ws.client.sei.SyncMethodHandler.invoke(SyncMethodHandler.java:93) at com.sun.xml.internal.ws.client.sei.SyncMethodHandler.invoke(SyncMethodHandler.java:77) at com.sun.xml.internal.ws.client.sei.SEIStub.invoke(SEIStub.java:147) at com.sun.proxy.$Proxy31.fahrenheitToCelsius(Unknown Source) at javaebservicedemo.JavaebServiceDemo.fahrenheitToCelsius(JavaebServiceDemo.java:26) at javaebservicedemo.JavaebServiceDemo.main(JavaebServiceDemo.java:19)

How can i make it work?

Answer 1

When the WSDL is parsed the warnings are stating that the WSDL is not following SOAP 1.2 binding conventions in particular: SOAP port has no soap:address. This WSDL maybe trying to support both SOAP 1.1 and 1.2

The response you are getting is 301: Moved Permanently which is trying to redirect you.

There is an example here: https://www.w3schools.com/xml/tempconvert.asmx?op=FahrenheitToCelsius

However, when I use the post example I get a 500 server error which isn't a good sign.

To save time I recommend using a tool like SOAPUI to test and validate the service is working before creating your demo. You could try and use a different service such as http://www.webservicex.net/ConvertTemperature.asmx?WSDL
