Cannot connect to webservice from another machine

[naveed]

I have the simple Hello World web service running on my development machine
(XP Pro SP2). I'm using VS2005. I'm able to access it from my machine. When I
try to access it from another machine (also XP pro SP2), using the URL:
"http://nav:24035/WebServ/Service.asmx?op=HelloWorld", I get a "Cannot find
server or DNS Error" error.

There is no firewall on either machine. I'm able to access this URL just
fine: "http://nav".

Please help.

When you say "there is no firewall on either machine" do you mean you
disabled the firewall, becuase the firewall is installed and turned on with
XP SP2.

you may want to check that port 24035.

Also try just the service page to get a list of methods:
http://nav:24035/webserv/service.asmx

or without the port: http://nav/webserv/service.asmx

Good luck,

John

Thanks for your reply, John. The firewalls have been disabled.

I get the same exact errors with http://nav:24035/webserv/service.asmx

Without the port, I get this error:

Server Error in '/' Application.

Hi,

just a few things to check:

- does the "http://nav:24035" URL by itself show you the documentation
page?
- Do you use WSE2 or higher? (WS-Addressing)

Hope this helps,

Marvin Smit.

Thanks. Actually the issue was with the internal web server which doesn't
allow remote connections.
