jasperintelligence webservice documentation

[rsilverns.sympatico.ca]

Does any documentation exist on how to use the webservice/WSDL aspect of jasper intelligence? I am trying to access a report via the webservice and keep getting a series of errors.

 

I have generated client artifacts to access jasperintelligence from a java servlet using Axis 1.0 wsdltojava ant task. After a lot of figuring I managed to get connected to the webservice based upon a URL of...

 

Code:

http://tomcat:tomcat@localhost:8080/jasperserver/view-services/JasperServerService?WSDL

the client artifacts that get generated require a bit of tweaking, inserting the "tomcat:tomcat@" into the target URL to make it work. I can connect to the webservice and view folders, files etc. But when I browse a folder I get a list of "/reports" folder that says there is a report called "test" within it. yet when I attempt to access a report via getFile and pass the uri "/reports/test" I get an execption in my generated java code that says...

 

Code:

[code]exception caught: com.jaspersoft.jasperserver.ws.WebServiceException: Resource "/reports/test" of type class com.jaspersoft.jasperserver.api.metadata.common.service.impl.hibernate.persistent.RepoFileResource not found. getting data of /reports/test

 

Would anyone have experience with this sort of problem?

 

Another issue I am noticing is that if I call the webservice "login" method and pass it a usrname such as "jasperadmin"... it will keep the "remote user" variable as being the usr I had to specify on the URL line (see above), which I had to specify to see the WSDL in my code. Has anyone encountered similar issues when dealing with how to see the WSDL, etc?

 

Thanks,

Rob

is the JaserServiceServer the AXIS2.0 interface?

 

i can connect with SOAPpy WSDL.Proxy, but i am getting

 

socket.gaierror: (-2, 'Name or service not known')

 

whenever i try to invoke a method. (the methods do list though...

 

>>> server.methods.keys()

[u'runReport', u'getFiles', u'getRemoteUser', u'getFileAttributes', u'getFolderAttributes', u'getReportParameters', u'getRoles', u'getFolders', u'getReportList', u'getFileList', u'getFile', u'login']

I am not sure if it is Axis 2.0 or not.

 

Are there any comments from devs or admins on this post? I am evaluating this software for use within my company and the key component is a reliable webservice.

 

Thx,

Rob
