Error acessing PDS.wsdl

[Richard O'Doherty-Gregg]

Hi

I'm trying to access the PDS service from within a .NET application. When I try to add it as a webreference the navigation pane shows the details of the SOAP method correctly, however Visual Studio.NET 2003 reports the following error

There was an error downloading 'http://<server>/projectserver/PDS.wsdl'

The request failed with HTTP status 503: Service Unavailable

I get the same error when running the sample apps supplied with the SDK, however those same applications run fine when executed on the server itself

Is there some configuration settings that I'm missing to allow access from machines other than the localhost

Cheers
Richar

Can anyone offer any help with this

Richard,

Something that I would look at is that maybe you need to specify a port
number for .wsdl requests to be sent to.

I've just worked out what the problem is. It seems to be proxy server related even though the server in question is in my exclusions list.

If I switch off the proxy in IE then add the web reference it works fine. Switch it back on and I get 503: Service Unavailable

Cheers
