I'm calling a report via the web service, and it's not picking up my parameters. The following is the generated SOAP message. I'd be grateful if someone could look it over and see if I'm doing something incorrectly.

Thanks,
Dave

Not much to go on bud -- can you show us the call? Get or Post?

Without seeing more I will politely remind you of the thing I've overlooked 100 times in the past: Upper/Lower case matters.

The parameter not being picked up is named "ldapId" and should have a value of "dave" and should be quoted when used in the query. As far as I know, parameters are supposed to be passed in the IBIWS_arrayvalues element as a ValuesArrayEntry consisting of a name and value element.

The following is the raw HTTP request:

POST /ibi_apps/uddi/WebFocus.jsp?IBIUDDI_parms=IBIWF_language%3Den%26IBIUDDI_webApplocation%3D%252Fibi_apps%252Fuddi%26IBIUDDI_wsdlversion%3D1.1%26IBIUDDI_action%3Drun%26 HTTP/1.1

I wonder if the parameter is being stopped in the client, and needs to be allowed to be passed.

What happens if the fex is called via the servelet.
