How to develop a HTTPs-based webservice client
Hi All,
I am newbie to axisc world. I have a webservice which is deployed in an HTTPS server with server certificate. I have to develop a webservice client, which will use the Server certificate(Server doesn't require client certificate) for authorization.
Can anybody please provide me some guide or document, which will explain me on how to write HTTPS based webservice client(in the code) and do the needful favor.
Thanks & Regards,
Murali Krishna K

Yes If you have done as the way above link says it is just a matter of
replacing http with https given that your service endpoint is https
based.

Hi Dinesh,
We're currently converting our existing web service to use SSL.
In response to an earlier thread about https-based web service:
> Please refer this link
> http://ws.apache.org/axis2/c/docs/axis2c_manual.html#ssl_client
I've think that I've set everything up now, based on the above
documentation link. I've created the necessary certificates and keys
etc. I've also configured apache (in httpd.conf) and axis2c (in
axis2.xml).
The one question I have at the moment is, to use the https-based
service, is it just a matter of replacing "http://<web service uri>"
with "https://<web service uri>"?
Many thanks,
Royston

This should not be a problem for the HTTPS transport. As Dinesh

What are these *methods* that you are referring to?
BTW, you can try it out and see... it's merely a minor change that
you have to do to your client ;)

Hi Pallewela,
I am referring to "OperationClient" & "ServiceClient"(methods) for webservice invocation.
I am sending the SOAP message that i have to send it to our .Net based webservice. Please check below, and let me know whether i can use the "ServiceClient" to access the webservice.

Hi Pallewela,
Thank you very much for the reply.
I have a small doubt, I need to modify the SOAP envelope and send some custom messages in the SOAP request. For this, i am planning to use the OperationClient.
I am sending the sample SOAP request message, i need to send it to my webservice. Please check the same and let me know, which method is suitable for the webservice invocation.

Hi Murali,
If you want to set the properties required for HTTPS transport, in
your client code, please do the following:
axutil_property_t *prop_sc = axutil_property_create(env);
axutil_property_set_value(prop_sc, env, axutil_strdup(env,
"/path/to/server/cert"));
axis2_options_set_property(options, env, "SERVER_CERT", prop_sc);
where *options* is the *axis2_options_t* structure that you set to
the service client using *axis2_svc_client_set_options* function, or
to the operation client using *axis2_op_client_set_options*
function. Refer to the echo sample client's http authentication
section for a sample on similar code fragment [echo.c lines 115-125].
Note that it does not depend on whether the service client or
operation client is used to send the request.
Other properties, if necessary, can be set in an identical manner.
Property names are KEY_FILE and SSL_PASSPHRASE as described in
axis2c manual [1].
HTH,
-Dumindu.

It doesn't matter whether you use svc_client or op_client to send your
request. HTTPS handled by Axis2/C transport layer which is independent
from the client api that you use. I'm afraid that I don't have any
examples in my hand. I think axis2c manual's description is

Hi Dinesh,
Thank you very much for your reply.
As i have to modify the SOAP envelope, i am planning to use the Operation Client instead of Service Client. Can you please send me any document with some examples on https web service client, which can provide some useful information.
