Currently it is not possible to use Soap4R with a webservice that requires HTTPS (e.g. very common use case is an authentication webservice).

NoMethodError: undefined method `data' for nil:NilClass

It looks like the problem is in jruby-opessl library and a method that it doesn't implement.

The only workaround I know about is to use a Java Integration and communicate with the service via a java web service stub. This however represents a considerable performance penalty.

oops.. I missed the first line that I see in the logs:

Any way you can come up with a test case for this? It's a tricky one to debug without.

I am having this issue as well, I receive it as soon as I call SOAP::WSDLDriverFactory.new(wsdl_url), whereby wsdl_url is an https URL.

This issue also seems to be affecting non-SSL web services using SOAP4R 1.5.8 as well. I get the same error when trying to connect to an unsecured web service.

I've attach a patch for httpclient-2.1.2 that simply adds a nil? check to HTTPClient's certificate loading method and allows you to access regular HTTP web services using SOAP4R-1.5.8. However, it does nothing to fix the PKCS7.read_smime problem.

Hi,

I'm also experiencing the same problem - any idea as to when it may be fixed?

We've been able to use soap4r to communicate with https soap webservices, but you need to force soap4r to use net/http instead of httpclient. We've also been frozen at an earlier version of soap4r, having had some difficulties with upgrades.

The basic formula we've been using is:

soap4r-1.5.6.90.20070704
No http-access2 or httpclient library installed or available on the load path

You may want the following code to ensure that net/http is used. It is also in the streamHandler.rb file, but can be used just in case http-access2 gets picked up accidentally.

require 'soap/streamHandler'

class HTTPStreamHandler
  require 'soap/netHttpClient'
  # Ruby will warn about re-assigning to constants
  # Use ActiveSupport's silence_stderr and Object#const_set if you don't want them to appear
  Client = SOAP::NetHttpClient
  RETRYABLE = false
end

I'm going to create a new bug for PKCS7, since there are lots of things that need to be done to get it to work. First task, write some tests. Ouch.

Ola Bini - 12/Aug/08 09:13 AM

There is still not any executable test cases for this one. To verify that it's actually resolved, that would be necessary. I will resolve this, and a new bug can be filed if anything else needs to be fixed.

read_smime have been implemented and will soon be released in a new OpenSSL version. If any other problem exists with soap4r, they should have separate bugs reported.

This is a fantastic news. I can help to test the code. Just let me know when the new bits are available.
