java.lang.Exception: Failed to load url

I have just installed SoapUI 5.2.0 on Windows. Regardless of what wsdl file I put in I get the following kind of error: Error loading [http://www.restfulwebservices.net/wcf/StockQuoteService.svc?ws...

Hi tjay,

 

Ok, no problem.

 

I have been able to build a SOAP project based on http://www.restfulwebservices.net/wcf/StockQuoteService.svc?wsdl e.g.

So that WSDL is fine. I am using SOapUI 5.2 Beta.

 

Have you tried making requests from that box from outside of SoapUI e.g.

 

curl http://www.restfulwebservices.net/wcf/StockQuoteService.svc?wsdl

 

Assuming you have curl (or similar basic shell based means of making an http request), if that doesn't work then SoapUI wont be able to see the WSDL either.

 

Cheers,

Rupert

Thanks for responses Rupert.

 

I have not tried curl. I do have php-soap enabled.

 

I have been able to open url www.restfulwebservices.net/wcf/StockQuoteService.svc?wsdl with no problems on the browser.

 

I have been a PHP programmer for years. I am trying to learn SOAP and understand all its elements. I have a main source for wsdl file for a major project, and am able to communicate with it through PHP's SoapClient - but don't understand SOAP well enough for smooth communications yet. I was hoping SoapUI would be the program that would speed up my learning process. That may help you know where I am coming from.

 

I assume you read the error log that I added to my first post while you were sending your first respons - and if so, did that tell you anything.

 

Thanks - tjay
