Request headers not received in REST mock service after deploying in server
After deploying my rest mock service in server, I am not able to receive my request headers
Forum Discussion
Server type: Apache tomcat
def requestBody = mockRequest.getRequestContent()
def abc_1= mockRequest.request.getHeader('abc').toString()
Using the above way, i am fetching the header and storing it in a variable.
Worked for me.
Apache Tomcat/7.0.69
JVM Version: 1.8.0_152-b16 (Oracle Corporation)
SoapUI 5.4.0
I created a MockService that returns the "success" response when the header is present (using your code in the dispatch script):
if (mockRequest.request.getHeader("abc") == '123')
return "success" else return "fail"
I ran the MockService in SoapUI and ran the request with abc header set to 123, and the response was the "success" result.
I ran "Deploy Project as WAR" and generated headers.war. I opened the Tomcat Manager webapp and deployed headers.war.
I changed my SoapUI request endpoint from localhost:8080/abc (UI mockservice) to localhost:9090/headers/abc (Tomcat deployment),sent the same request, and again got the "success" reply.
Could you please explain how to create headers.war file?I did not create that file because of which i might not be able to get the headers
Just choose Deploy As War from the Project menu in SoapUI.
sorry i misunderstood that i have to generate war file with headers alone.Now i understood that it is the name of the war file.
Actually i had generated war file and deployed it, but when i hit it from soap ui to that particular url it is working fine. However, when the other component of my application tries to hit the mock service url, in my mock service log,I could see the request body content but header value(abc) is showing as null.
