Error while making SOAP request call in iPhone app - iphone

I am trying to make a soap call. It's a very basic call with "Welcome User" output. The return value is in xml format, and I am getting the following error. However I am not sure what this error means.
The following code shows the soap request and post request that I have made:
NSString *soapMessage = [NSString stringWithFormat: #"<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?>\n"
"<soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance\" xmlns:xsd=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema\" xmlns:soap=\"http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/\">\n"
"<soap:Body>\n"
"<WelcomeXML xmlns=\"http://www.somewebsite.com/phpwebservice/index.php\">\n"
"<name>"
"<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?>\n"
"<message>\n"
"<name>Hitesh</name>\n"
"</message>\n"
"</name>"
"</WelcomeXML>\n"
"</soap:Body>\n"
"</soap:Envelope>\n"];
NSLog(#"%#",soapMessage);
NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:#"http://www.somewebsite.com/phpwebservice/index.php"];
NSMutableURLRequest *theRequest = [NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:url];
NSString *msgLength = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%d", [soapMessage length]];
[theRequest addValue: #"text/xml; charset=utf-8" forHTTPHeaderField:#"Content-Type"];
[theRequest addValue: #"http://www.somewebsite.com/phpwebservice/index.php/WelcomeXML" forHTTPHeaderField:#"SOAPAction"];
[theRequest addValue: msgLength forHTTPHeaderField:#"Content-Length"];
[theRequest setHTTPMethod:#"POST"];
[theRequest setHTTPBody: [soapMessage dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
Following is the error that I am getting:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?><SOAP-ENV:Envelope SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"

You have an error in the SOAP request on line 5:
"<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?>\n"
is dubbled. What for?

Working with Web services in iPhone

I'm using SOAP in an iPhone app, and I got this error:
<faultcode>soap:Client</faultcode><faultstring>Server did not recognize the value of HTTP Header SOAPAction: http://tempuri.org/CelsiusToFahrenheit.</faultstring><detail /></soap:Fault></soap:Body></soap:Envelope>
This is my code:

[theRequest setHTTPMethod:#"POST"];
//the below encoding is used to send data over the net
[theRequest setHTTPBody:[soapFormat dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
Any help will be appreciated, thanks.
just went through the url http://www.w3schools.com/webservices/tempconvert.asmx for location of web service, there i found that in while using SOAP 1.1 soap action was http://www.w3schools.com/webservices/CelsiusToFahrenheit
and not http://tempuri.org/CelsiusToFahrenheit as you have written for your soacp action field.
This is the exact format for sending request to this particular web service ,
POST /webservices/tempconvert.asmx HTTP/1.1
Host: www.w3schools.com
Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8
Content-Length: length
SOAPAction: "http://www.w3schools.com/webservices/CelsiusToFahrenheit"
I believe you are setting wrong value of soap action. because soap action mentioned is different from what you have written. (FYI, soap action is used to identify one particular web service or web method, from a large no of web methods , which are present on same location)
Try this.It will work

pass multiple value to webservice in iphone

I want to access a webservice, want to pass 2 parameters.
When I run the code below, this error is shown:
#countryname not supplied
I already pass 2 parameters as txtcity and txtcountry.
-(IBAction)FindWords:(id)sender
{
NSString *soapMsg =
[NSString stringWithFormat:
#"<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?>"
"<soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi="

conn = [[NSURLConnection alloc] initWithRequest:req delegate:self];
if(conn)
{
webData = [[NSMutableData data] retain];
NSLog(#"WebDatanew....%#",webData);
}
}
just include ASIHTTPRequest.Its much more easier to use.
http://allseeing-i.com/ASIHTTPRequest/
the web service takes three parameters:
rw_app_id: The unique identifier for the app. If you’ve been following along with the previous tutorial, there should be only one entry so far, App ID #1.
code: The code to attempt to redeem. This should be a string that’s entered by the user.
device_id: The device ID that is attempting to redeem this code. We can get this with an easy API call.
use:- ASIHTTPRequest
change your soapMsg format :
NSString *soapMsg = [NSString stringWithFormat:
#"<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?>\n"
"<soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance\" xmlns:xsd=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema\" xmlns:soap=\"http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/\">\n"
"<soap:Body>\n"
"<GetWeather xmlns=\"http://www.webserviceX.NET\">\n"
"<CityName>%#</CityName>"
"<CountryName>%#</CountryName>\n"
"</GetWeather>\n"
"</soap:Body>\n"
"</soap:Envelope>\n",txtCity.text,txtCounrty.text];
Use ASIHTTP Request and JSON Library to communicate with your web service. JSON is way better than XML feeds and its very easy to handle.
Download JSON library form Here
Here is the Documentation for ASIHTTP request :- http://allseeing-i.com/ASIHTTPRequest/
Hope this will help you. Thank you
May be this can help you. It contain one parameter
-(void)serverconnection{
NSString *CountryName=#"India";
NSString *soapMessage = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?>"
"<soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance\" xmlns:xsd=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema\" xmlns:soap=\"http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/\">"
"<soap:Body>"
"< GetWeather xmlns=\"http://tempuri.org/\">"
"<CountryName>%#</CountryName>"
"</GetWeather >"
"</soap:Body>"
"</soap:Envelope>",CountryName];
NSURL *myNSUObj=[NSURL URLWithString:#"http://www.webservicex.net/globalweather.asmx?op=GetCitiesByCountry"];
// NSURLRequest *myNSURequestObj=[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:myNSUObj];
NSMutableURLRequest *theRequest = [NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:myNSUObj];
NSString *msgLength = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%lu", (unsigned long)[soapMessage length]];
[theRequest addValue: #"text/xml; charset=utf-8" forHTTPHeaderField:#"Content-Type"];
[theRequest addValue: #"http://tempuri.org/GetWeather" forHTTPHeaderField:#"SOAPAction"];
[theRequest addValue: msgLength forHTTPHeaderField:#"Content-Length"];
[theRequest setHTTPMethod:#"POST"];
[theRequest setHTTPBody: [soapMessage dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
myNSUConnectionObj=[[NSURLConnection alloc]initWithRequest:theRequest delegate:self];
NSLog(#"Data =%#",myNSUConnectionObj);
if(myNSUConnectionObj)
{
NSLog(#"successful connection");
myNSMDataFromServer=[[NSMutableData alloc]init];
}
}
Your webservice is different but may be this can give you idea.

soap response error

I am doing soap request/response application. While building soap response, I am getting "Server did not recognize the value of HTTP Header SOAPAction".
What does that mean? And how to solve this?
Here is the code.
NSString *soapMessage = [NSString stringWithFormat: #"<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?>\n"
"<soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance\" xmlns:xsd=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema\" xmlns:soap=\"http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/\">\n"
"<soap:Body>\n"
"<SignOn xmlns=\"http://10.12.50.99/CUTechWebservices/CuTechWebService.asmx\">\n"
"<DeviceID>4A6B740C-0B5B-5F8C-8694-1EC0196C1C67</DeviceID>\n"
"<UserID>10827</UserID>\n"
"<CrID>6</CrID>\n"
"<UserPin>777777!</UserPin>\n"
"</SignOn>\n"
"</soap:Body>\n"
"</soap:Envelope>\n"];
NSLog(#"%#",soapMessage);
//Soap request.
NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:#"https://mobile.areafinancial.com/cutechservice/cutechwebservice.asmx"];
NSMutableURLRequest *theRequest = [NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:url];
NSString *msgLength = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%d",[soapMessage length]];
[theRequest addValue:#"text/xml; charset=utf-8" forHTTPHeaderField:#"Content-Type"];
[theRequest addValue:#"http://10.12.50.99/CUTechWebservices/CuTechWebService.asmx" forHTTPHeaderField:#"SOAPAction"];
[theRequest addValue:msgLength forHTTPHeaderField:#"Content-Length"];
[theRequest setHTTPMethod:#"POST"];
[theRequest setHTTPBody:[soapMessage dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
In SOAP 1.2 SOAPAction header was replaced with "optional" action attribute of Content-Type header field.
Try it with following header:
Content-Type: application/soap+xml; charset=utf-8; action="https://mobile.areafinancial.com/cutechservice/cutechwebservice.asmx?op=SignOn"
without the SOAPAction: header field.
See also http://www.coderanch.com/t/224524/Web-Services/java/SOAPAction-header
Try to remove below line and see what you get. This header you passed in request. You should pass same header as in the web service.
[theRequest addValue:#"text/xml; charset=utf-8" forHTTPHeaderField:#"Content-Type"];

XML parameter for SOAP webservice request in iPhone

I want to send a SOAP request to a webservice method. Now I want to send the parameter as an XML input for that request. How can I do it in iPhone? Right now I am sending the request in following way:
NSString *soapMessage =
#"<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?>\n"
"<soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance\" xmlns:xsd=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema\" xmlns:soap=\"http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope\">\n"
"<soap:Body>\n"
"<GetCustomerInfoXML xmlns=\"http://qa2.alliancetek.com/phpwebservice\">\n"
"<id><customer><id>1</id></customer></id>"
"</GetCustomerInfoXML>"
"</soap:Body>\n"
"</soap:Envelope>";
NSLog(#"%#",soapMessage);
NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:#"http://qa2.alliancetek.com/phpwebservice/index.php"];
NSMutableURLRequest *theRequest = [NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:url];
NSString *msgLength = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%d", [soapMessage length]];
[theRequest addValue: #"text/xml; charset=utf-8" forHTTPHeaderField:#"Content-Type"];
[theRequest addValue: #"http://qa2.alliancetek.com/phpwebservice/index.php//GetCustomerInfoXML" forHTTPHeaderField:#"SOAPAction"];
[theRequest addValue: msgLength forHTTPHeaderField:#"Content-Length"];
[theRequest setHTTPMethod:#"POST"];
[theRequest setHTTPBody: [soapMessage dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
But I want to send the parameters in XML format.
Wrap the parameters in the CDATA tag, <![CDATA["parameters"]]>. This will tell the server not to parse it. Then that data is sent to the service which can parse it as regular xml.
