I am trying to connect to a web service. I have a wsdl that I converted to class using SVCUTIL..

When calling the service from .net console application, I get this error

There was no endpoint listening at https://rest.developer.yodlee.com:8080/yodsoap/services/RoutingNumberServiceService_2017Q1 that could accept the message. This is often caused by an incorrect address or SOAP action. See InnerException, if present, for more details.

Inner exception : Unable to connect to remote server

I am not sure what I am doing here and how to fix this..

Below is the wsdl's service info.. 

<wsdl:service name="RoutingNumberServiceService">
    <wsdl:port binding="impl:RoutingNumberServiceSoapBinding" name="RoutingNumberService">
        <wsdlsoap:address location="http://localhost:8080/yodsoap/services/RoutingNumberService_2017Q1/" />
    </wsdl:port>
</wsdl:service>

This is the client's config 

<client>

  <endpoint address="https://rest.developer.yodlee.com:8080/yodsoap/services/RoutingNumberServiceService_2017Q1"
      binding="basicHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="RoutingNumberServiceSoapBinding"
      contract="RoutingNumberServiceService.RoutingNumberService" name="RoutingNumberService"  />

</client>

Can someone help me understand what is that I am missing here.. Appreciate the help. I tried a lot of solutions online and nothing helped me. Thanks in advance!!

  • Your links shows `https://rest.` but the xml you have posted shows `https://resr` which if either are correct. – Scrobi Jun 19 '17 at 12:40
  • @Scrobi - that was a typo. I corrected. Thanks – challengeAccepted Jun 19 '17 at 12:48
  • `https://rest.developer.yodlee.com` seem to respond even from here but `https://rest.developer.yodlee.com:8080` doesn't. Maybe the port 8080 isn't open on the other end ? – Jimbot Jun 19 '17 at 12:53

The exception is Unable to connect to remote server.

I tried telnetting to that server

$> telnet rest.developer.yodlee.com 8080
Connecting To rest.developer.yodlee.com...Could not open connection to the host, on port 8080: Connect failed

so it appears the endpoint is inaccessible - possibly it's been turned off or that is not the correct address.

One thing I note is that 8080 is an unusual port to be running a HTTPS service on - 443 and 8443 are the standard ports for HTTPS.

Regardless, the only way you can "fix" it is to contact the endpoint owner and ask them what the issue is.

EDIT

The documentation states that the base URL is https://rest.developer.yodlee.com/services/services/v1.0, which is (implicitly) port 443. I think the port number is your problem.

EDIT 2

What I am trying to suggest is that you fix the following line:

<endpoint address="https://rest.developer.yodlee.com:8080/yodsoap/services/RoutingNumberServiceService_2017Q1"

to be 

<endpoint address="https://rest.developer.yodlee.com/yodsoap/services/RoutingNumberServiceService_2017Q1"

Note that I have removed :8080.

  • Thanks for looking into this.. But when I use https instead of http (without port number), it asks me to use http.. – challengeAccepted Jun 19 '17 at 13:00
  • `asks me to use http`? What do you mean by this? Do you get an error message? If so, what exactly is it? Your configuration shows that you *are* using HTTPS so I am very confused by your statement. Please be precise in your answers - we do not have all the information you have :) – RB.

  • Actually - I think I understand you - see my **EDIT 2**. I think you misunderstood what I was suggesting :) – RB. Jun 19 '17 at 13:05
  • Thank you... But When I changed it like you said, the exception says "The service cannot be found for the endpoint reference (EPR) https://rest.developer.yodlee.com/yodsoap/services/RoutingNumberServiceService_2017Q1.. At least something different. Does this mean something good?! – challengeAccepted Jun 19 '17 at 13:08
  • Yes - that is better because it means you are actually connecting to the service. Please see [this SO question](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/16192151/axis2-webservice-fault-the-service-cannot-be-found-for-the-endpoint-reference) which is related to your new error. – RB.

  • I think it makes sense now. I will work on fixing the issues that I am getting as a response. At least I am getting a response. Thank you! Appreciate the time!! – challengeAccepted Jun 19 '17 at 13:40
