Web Service Issue
-
hi everyone, I am having some problems while accessing a certain method of a web service thourgh my asp.net application. The web service exposes 2 methods 1) string GetXml(......) 2) byte[] GetBinary(string path) Method 1) runs smoothly and returns the string. While calling method 2) raises an exception (Server was unable to process request --> Object reference not set to an instance of the object) or sometimes (Server was unable to process request --> Parameter cannot be null. Parameter name InString). Another asp.net application accesses the same web service methods without any errors. The code for using the web service in this application and mine is identical, except for mine is in C# and the other one is in VB.NET Does anyone has any idea why this is happening? The web service is offlimits, so i cant debug it and it uses basic authentication. Please guide me!!! thanx in advance! ☺«««DTA»»»☺

Try using a logging proxy or sniffer like httpLook[^] to see what is different in the messages that the VB client and the C# client are sending to the web service.
