Need help to start using soapUI (can not use even sample project)

Hi!
I downloaded version 3.0.1
Imported Sample project as was shown in education movie.

I can not run any test or request. Always get


<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
ERROR: The requested URL could not be retrieved


ERROR


The requested URL could not be retrieved





While trying to retrieve the URL:
http://127.0.0.1:8088/mockSampleServiceSoapBinding


The following error was encountered:




  • Connection to 127.0.0.1 Failed




The system returned:

    (111) Connection refused



The remote host or network may be down.  Please try the request again.

Your cache administrator is "support@teligent.ru".

I understand that something is wrong with network settings, cause firstly i could not  see geting started page, found answer on this forum (used seetings from FireFox and copied it to soapUI)

But this did not solve next problem with running sample tests.

Waiting for any advice, thx in advance!

  • Hello,

    The request you are trying to send is targeted at the MockService. It will only work if the MockService is already running when the request is sent. To start the MockService, right click on it and select "Start Minimized" (alternatively you can double click it to open a desktop panel, then click on the green arrow to start it). Once it has been started the request should work.

    I found problem, it was in proxy.
    Service was started as you said, but  request to  127.0.0.1 was sent through the proxy.

    But thank you for so quick reply.

    I'm seeing the same issue [connection refused] on the sample mock service on 8088. Here's what I've attempted to far...

    [Config: Win 7 / IE 8, soapUI Pro 3.5.1]

    • verified mock service is running ok in browser

    • created a new firewall rule to make sure 8088 traffic isn't blocking

    • changed host properties of mock service to match local computer name

    • disabled read-only for entire program files dir: "c:>attrib.exe -R "c:\Program Files" /S /D"


    I'm also unable to open any of my site WSDL's in soapUI, although they come up fine in IE. There's obviously some kind of Win 7 configuration issue here; any help or suggestions much appreciated, as I am evaluating soapUI PRO licenses for my team.

    Thanks,

    Terry

    Turned out to be a messed up Win 7 user profile; rebuilding the profile seems to have cleared up the issue.
