BC21 OnPrem SOAP WebService Wrong Definition part

Posted on by JuliettWhiskey81

Hi,

one of our departments is still relying on a SOAP webservice. We are using this WebService since NAV2018.

In NAV2018 and BC18 the SOAP webservice returns the following in the definition part:

<address location="https://[FQDN]:7047/[InstanceName]/WS/[CompanyName]/Codeunit/MyService" xmlns="">schemas.xmlsoap.org/.../"/>

</port>

</service>

Now in BC21 this changed to:

<address location="https://[FQDN]:7047/[CompanyName]/Codeunit/MyService" xmlns="">schemas.xmlsoap.org/.../"/>

</port>

</service>

So the InstanceName is missing in the address location and in my opinion this is a wrong definition. Is there an option (maybe in the BC service configuration) to get the InstanceName back to the definition?

Thanks

Hello,

Thank you for this message. We are working with a partner that reported the same issue. The partner mentioned the issue can be considered as mitigated when using a hosts file (location: c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc). You can add the following line in the hosts file:

127.0.0.1 FQDN

You can also clear the field PublicSOAPBaseUrl in the customsettings.config file, this was our last suggestion to try out. We currently do not have an internal repro so we do not know why this is happening.

Thank you.

Hi Marco,

thanks for your feedback. Removing the PublicSOAPBaseUrl worked for me. Thank you so much for sharing this info.
