Webservice trouble.

[Jensen Bredal]

Hello,
I have written a very simple web service with only one "web method". The web
method does what it is supposed
to do when invoked locally but fails one invoked remotelly
with http error 500.


Any idea what i have done wrong?


Many thanks in advance
JB

Re: Webservice trouble.

HTTP error 500 means that there is probably an unhandled exception in the
web service method. To debug the problem, you can try e.g.,:

1) set <customErrors mode="Off" /> in web.config to see ASP.NET error page
remotely
2) add error logging (i.e., catch all exceptions and log them somewhere)
3) attach debugger to the web service, put a break point in the web method
and step through code until you hit the error

Regards,
Sami
