About the author
My name is Pascal Alma and I live in The Netherlands. I have been working in IT business since 1997. I started as a Oracle developer, working with ‘traditional’ tools: Oracle Designer/Developer and PL/SQL. Since 2001 I am developing applications for the J2EE platform, still using the Oracle toolstack: JDeveloper and JHeadstart.
Besides the Oracle toolstack I am also using a lot of open source tools/frameworks like Spring/Hibernate/Xfire/Apache Axis/ etc. etc. at various projects.
Since 2008 I have started my own company ‘PALMA IT’. You can find more info about the company here.
Hi,

Can you help me with this?

Hi,
I was going through your post “Getting Human Workflow Tasklist from Oracle BPEL” and it was very helpful. I am trying to use BPMAuthorizationService using REMOTE_CLIENT.
BPMAuthorizationService authSvc = wfSvcClient.getAuthorizationService(wfCtx.getIdentityContext());
I am getting the authSvc as null.
Is there any alternate solution for this?
Can you please help me?
Thanks
Hi Rama,
I have seen your question but unfortunately I can not help you with this at the moment. I am currently not working with Oracle BPEL and do not have an installation nor the time to try possible solutions. I have seen your questions at other forums too and I hope someone out there can help you with this.
Regards,
Pascal
Pascal, I have an application that has web services capability. I am trying to use SOAP UI to ensure that the web services component in the application is working. I read through a sample page you had “Using SOAP for testing your webservice” but still have some pieces missing. So are you saying that i need to have a file where I have some WSDL code written and then point the soap UI tool to that file? Do I need to specify the username and password inorder for SOAP UI to connect to the application? what is the application uses single sign on? how do I put this into the wsdl script. Dows the wsdl file need to be located on the server where the application is installed? Thanks for your help in advance.
Wow, chuks, you have a lot of questions. About the wsdl file: this file can be seen as a contract that describes the web services of your application. WebService clients can use the wsdl so they know how to interact with the webservice.
Normally you can have a wsdl get generated dynamically, if you don’t have one already (I think it depends on your webservice framework).
For example, if your url for your webservice is: http://www.myserver.com/myWebService/ you can enter in your browser: http://www.myserver.com/myWebService/?wsdl and you will get your WSDL generated. You can use this url in SOAP UI to have your soap request generated.
Can you try this? If that works we can move on to the SSO thing (one issue at a time :-) )
Pascal, Great blog on SoapUI! The effort is excellent. I have been looking for a way to use SOAP UI to run a test where one web service is called to get a list of values (search results) and a second web service is called in a loop for each of the preceeding results. I have a Groovy script that loops through the results of the first SOAP response and sets the necessary argument in the succeeding SOAP request, then uses the TestStep.run() method to invoke. I get ‘OK’ for the TestStepResult, but my second service is never called. I have been looking at the SOAP UI source code, but I can’t find the cause. I appreciate any pointers you might have to enable this. I’ll be happy to send my Groovy script, but I didn’t think it would translate well in this comment section. THANKS! — Jack
Hi Jack,
I can’t promise anything, I’m very busy at the moment, but you can send your script to ‘blog@pascalalma.net’ and I look into it, if I find the time somewhere.
Btw, good to hear you like the SoapUI posts!
Grtz,
Pascal

I am facing the similar kind of issue which are being talked in this blog several times.
That is Parametarization. I need to dyanamically input an Id in my request for every run.
I could not read the Values from external file. I think Sri and Sriram had faced this issue earlier. Can any of you help me on this?
