Thanks Scott, that helped :-) Now I get the SOAPException below if I try to use SSL. (The Web Services is running under Bea Weblogic 6.1 and SSL is up and running there...)
[SOAPException: faultCode=SOAP-ENV:Client; msg=Error opening socket: null; targetException=java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Error opening socket: null] at org.apache.soap.transport.http.SOAPHTTPConnection.send at org.apache.soap.rpc.Call.invoke at... -> Is the problem on the client or on the server side? -> Does the SSL connection go through the browser? I already checked the following documentation: http://xml.apache.org/soap/docs/install/FAQ_Tomcat_SOAP_SSL.html http://xml.apache.org/soap/docs/trouble/index.html I'm thankful for any hint ;-) Ted -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, December 03, 2001 3:01 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Security problem with SOAP Java applet Are you using Apache SOAP 2.2? This is an issue that I believe was fixed in that version. If you are using 2.2, perhaps it is fixed in the current daily build.
