Rails - Aug 2006 - Web service SOAP URLs started failing with 1.1.4 or using 1.1.2 security patch

Railers,

I''m trying to figure out why invocations to my Web service URLs work
with Rails 1.1.2 but fail both with Rails 1.1.4 (and 1.1.5) and when I
apply the new 1.1.2 security patch to Rails 1.1.2.

It looks like they are failing with SOAP clients but succeeding with
XML-RPC clients.

The URL that used to work is of the form
http://localhost:3000/my_controller/ServiceName/api. When I use that
same URL after applying the 1.1.2 security patch (or in 1.1.4/1.1.5),
my application sees a 404 error.

The WSDL url http://localhost:3000/my_controller/ServiceName/service.wsdl
also fails. When I try to go to that URL in my browser, I see

        Recognition failed for "/post_office/PostOffice/service.wsdl"

I have not changed config/routes.rb at all.

Any hints or help would be greatly appreciated.

Jim

Jim,

What web_service_dispatching_mode are you using?

Looking at your URL examples, I assume you are using :delegated mode.
In this case, you obtain the WSDL using
http://<your-server>/post_office/wsdl URL, which would tell that your
service port address should be
http://<your-server>/post_office/ServiceName
(no /api at the end).
