Server was unable to read request - outboundmessaging

I have the same problem.

The situation is the following.

I'm using outbound messaging.

For each object (e.g. a Case) a workflow with an outboundmessage with sends all fields.

Each outbound message has its own generated .wsdl file.

These .wsdl file are implemented in Dotnet.

Salesforce exists out of a large numbers of objects and the number of available ports in our server are limited.

Therefor:

In ISS (ver 6. using (ASP).NET 2.0) I have create a web site.

This web site has its own port number.

This web site exists out of several web services (asmx) files.

Each web service has its own unique namespace.

At the moment I'm not working with a compiled version of the web site.

Sending one notification from Salesforce to our server is working
when I have created strictly one web service for this web site or
set this web service as the standard document in IIS.

But the second notification (e.g. a delivery address) is not recognized by
our web server and therefor Salesforce response (I guess) with
the following message.

Server was unable to read request. --->
There is an error in XML document (12, 6). --->
The specified type was not recognized: n...

How to solve this one?

Solving in Salesforce?
In IIS?
In code? allready using unique namespaces.

Regards

Solved.

Change your endpoint (of the outbound message) to the specific web service to map;)

Hi,

I have one question for you.

on outbound messaging the endpoint URL must be any web service or we can give URL with  .aspx page

Exampale http://mysite.com/sForce.aspx

the above is right?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Yes. But an aspx file is not a web service, asmx is

So probably it will be:
http://mysite.com/sForce.asmx

If you are using https it wil be
https://mysite.com/sForce.asmx

If you only have an ip it will be
http://yourip/sForce.asmx

if you are using a specific port number it will be
http://yourip:YOURPORTNUMBER/sForce.asmx

Make sure your web server accepts calls and only from and to *.Salesforce.com.

Yes,

Define a workflow via the setup options in Salesforce.
Give it a name, select an object to be notified when it is changed.
Select some rules.
 
Next create a new outbound message.
Give it a name, select an object to be notified when it is changed, with some fields
Select some rules/conditions.
Save.

Download the outbound message .wsdl file to implement a asp.net web service (the listener)
on your side. This listener contains an notification method the read the notified object.
based on its values you can deside to update, delete or insert some values in your database.
Or calling a stored procedure or...

Another way is calling a web service via (partly generated) Apex code from an s-control (something like a web part).
Outbound messaging is easier, you have to do less.
 
Testing
Best way to handle this is by setting op a test environment (test.salesforce.com).
allready got one? you can create one from your current Salesforce account

How can i crate test account on salesforce from my current developer edition acount?
 
Thanks in advance.
Manas

If your account is only for testing then it will do, otherwise you can ask your administrator.

I guess in the developers environment you have all the needed functions available to set up your functionality.

outbound messaging sends a SOAP request, and expects a SOAP response. Any web technology that can parse the request and generate the correct response can be used. for .NET this would typically be an ASMX page, but is not required to be, you could also build one using ashx or aspx pages.
valentino rijhevalentino rijhe
Sorry Simon,

Don't think it is what he is looking for.
Indeed a lot of this info is documented in the *.docs but a lot isnt
like calling an external .net web service from an apex trigger which is not possible.

For example when creating an outbound message you cannot see the "users" object,
other custom objects you can see. Probably it will be a settings in Setup Control?
Isnt documented either.

When creating some custom objects you can make these visible for certain users and user groups.
I could also remember the possiblity of creating a (tab)page, and making it visible within the process of creating
a custom object.
 
You can also create a tab page and select an object.

Valentino Rijhen

A lot of Workflow related things are documented in the main salesforce.com help, not in the developer API docs. The inability to make outbound calls from a trigger is documented in the apex docs.

valentino rijhevalentino rijhe
try this.

sfdc = new sforce.SforceService();

try

{

// call SF login method

sforce.LoginResult lr = sfdc.login(usr, passwd);

sfdc.Url = lr.serverUrl;

sfdc.SessionHeaderValue = new sforce.SessionHeader();

sfdc.SessionHeaderValue.sessionId = lr.sessionId;

curSessionID = lr.sessionId;

curURL = lr.serverUrl;

// log result

SessionLog += String.Format("Login OK for user {0}\r\n", lr.userInfo.userFullName);

return true;

}

Why needed a server time?
Wouldnt a client datetime do fine?

Valentino Rijhen
