Service A calls Service B, both on localhost, get HTTP 405 error

[shodson]

I have a web service

http://localhost/ServiceA/ProxyService.asmx

calls

http://localhost/ServiceB/Service.asmx

And I get an error in ServiceB's method when it calls Invoke() it craps
out and returns

The request failed with HTTP status 405: Method not allowed.

I created a WSDL stub with wsdl.exe for calling B which A uses.

What's the deal? Why does this not work? Are there restrictions for a
web service calling another web service, even when both services are on
both machines? And what with the 405 error? I thought I'd only get
that if I an incorrect HTTP verb was sent to IIS but it should be
sending a POST.

I can call B directly just fine, and A is just a proxy and passes
client calls directly to B using the class created by WSDL.

Help???

I'm using the same topology as the one you described and never got that kind
of error - it should be some kind of coding error. Did you tried to debugg it?

Of course I tried debugging it. It craps out when ServiceA calls
Invoke() to make the call to ServiceB, that's as far as I can get.

OK, try putting a http monitor between the services, so you you can see how
the requests really looks like. You'll find apretty usefull monitor on
