Re : consume an outsys webservice in vb.net

Question

Hello,

I have created a (very) simple WebService in Outsystems (on "localhost"), and I want to use this Webservice in a vb.net application.

However, when I try to set the Reference in vb.net to the WebService I get the following error:
"External Server returned error 404 (Not found)"

Does anyone have a suggestion how I should make this work? (Please see attachment)

Kind regards,

Jelle van der Most

Hello Jelle van der Most,

I don't know for sure what you have tried, but in Visual Studio when you Add Service Reference, in the Address field you should put something like

https://<server>/TestWebService/Webservice1.asmx

Another point you have to keep in mind is the <server>, because you shouldn't put localhost if you are accessing it from another machine. You should put instead the IP address or server name.
Hope this helps.

Best Regards,
Gonçalo M.
