Hey Folks, In a previous life, I had to do some SOAP integration with a couple of commercial apps and AXIS and I ran into major issues. Even the WSDLs were different.
I ended up coding a new WSDL by hand for the AXIS stuff to get it to work. (YUCK!) To me, SOAP is supposed to be easy... Do an HTTP req, give it a WSDL and tell you what service you're after. The WSDL is saupposed to describe what you get back. Dougie!!!

Hi Eduardo, I'm sorry that I haven't replied to this before (i've only just seen your mail - isn't spotlight wonderful). I've been looking at OTRS/OpenNMS integration over the last few months as a side project. I initially thought that it would be simple as OTRS claims a SOAP interface. I ran into trouble with the OTRS end of things though, as SOAP::Lite by default does not produce messages that can be easily consumed by AXIS. I'm curious as to how you resolved that (or if you used the SOAP interface at all). I finally decided to write a new module for OTRS that produced a java-friendly interface to Kernel::Ticket and Kernel::Ticket::Article (properly typed and with accompanying WSDL) so that OTRS SOAP services could be simply consumed by AXIS in OpenNMS in the same way as Joed's JIRA implementation. I'm curious to how you've managed to implement this. My thinking was that once I'd got Ticket and Article nailed, I could go on to add some of the OTRS ITSM objects (which could interface with OpenNMS's asset information). It might have been simpler to just use SMTP to raise the ticket and scrape ticket details back in to OpenNMS but that would have closed off the possibility to further integrate with ITSM. As it's still a spare time activity for me, I'm still a few weeks at best from implementation. If you're still interested, I'll share details with you when I'm a bit closer to completion. Cheers ...
