Moving a working web service to another server produces the following error.

[UJ]

I've got a working web service that we are moving to another machine and now
I suddenly get the following error.

While transferring the files, got the following message:
System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: Server was unable to read
request. ---System.InvalidOperationException: There is an error in XML

Any thoughts?

Classic error.
Are you able to see the default webform presented by any microsoft webservice?
And are you able to see the wsdl using address?wsdl in IE?

If so - your connection is fine. From the error details, I would consider
verifiying that you have the same .NET version installled (Undefined data
type: anytype). Are you sure you are presenting the same environment on both
servers?

This may not seem too helpful, but my thought is that the exception message
is telling you the truth. 'anyType' is undefined.

Now, all you have to do is get a look at the XML being sent to see how
'anyType' is being used at line 1, character 1422, and to figure out why you
and .NET disagree on whether it is defined.

A hint: perhaps there is a namespace mismatch.

Another hint: you may want to use something like the tracing tools at
http://www.pocketsoap.com/. I understand the Microsoft Soap Toolkit also has
a tracing tool. There are also commercial tools, of which SoapScope by
MindReef is reasonably priced.
