Hi all.

I’m using request document to call a Web service (with basic auth). works fine in dev when I hit the http url but in production the url is https. When I call the https endpoint I just get a 500 - Internal Server error back.

Is there something I have to change code wise from http endpoint vs https endpoint? (that being the only variable changing. )

My code looks as follows:

```auto
001600 request document from #WS-ENDPOINT
001610 with
001620 USER 'natfmsuser'
001630 PASSWORD 'xxxxxxx'
001640 header
001650 name 'Request-Method' value 'POST'
001660 name 'Content-Type' value 'text/xml; charset=UTF-8'
001670 name 'SOAPAction' value 'Enqueue'
001680 data all #request
001690 return
001700 header name ' ' value http-status-text
001710 page #response
001720 response #rc
```

and the SOAP packet I’m sending looks as follows

\<?xml version = '1.0' encoding = 'UTF-8'?\>

\<env:Envelope xmlns:env=‘[http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/](http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/)’ xmlns:xsd=‘[XML Schema](http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema)’ xmlns:xsi=‘[http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance](http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance)’ xmlns:ns0=‘[http://www.example.org](http://www.example.org)’\>  
env:Body  
ns0:Message  
\<ns0:Message xsi:type=‘xsd:string’\>Hello\</ns0:Message\>  
\</ns0:Message\>  
\</env:Body\>  
\</env:Envelope\>

I can successfully call the service via SOAPUI and I’ve compared the two request packets and they look the same.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Elmar,

You haven’t told which platform - but let me guess; z/OS ? 😉  
If that is the case then there are quite a few extra things needed, since the HTTPS certificates etc are not just default as on LUW ☹

See doc [http://techcommunity.softwareag.com/ecosystem/documentation/natural/nat826mf/pg/pg\_xml.htm?hi=tls+tl#pg\_xml\_https\_supp](http://techcommunity.softwareag.com/ecosystem/documentation/natural/nat826mf/pg/pg_xml.htm?hi=tls+tl#pg_xml_https_supp)

Hi Finn…

Sorry yes, its actually on a Solaris Platform.

I’ll read through the docs thanks.
