Basic SOAP Questions

[dkarp]

Let's see. The piece that's failing is

        Account adminAcct = prov.get(AccountBy.id, lc.getAuthtokenAccountId());
        if (adminAcct == null)
            throw AccountServiceException.NO_SUCH_ACCOUNT(lc.getAuthtokenAccountId());

No auth token would mean lc.getAuthtokenAccountId() is null which means admin account lookup will fail.

So... what does your request look like? Are you sure that you're including the auth token in the <context> block in the SOAP envelope?

Hi

I had the same problem too, I starded grom the getMsg.pl script and
solved it as follow (perl code)

my $adm = new XmlDoc;
$adm->start('AuthRequest', "urn:zimbraAdmin");
$adm->add('name', undef, undef, $admin );
$adm->add('password', undef, undef, $adminPsw);
$adm->end();
# Authenticate as admin
my $admAuthResponse = $SOAP->invoke($admUrl, $adm->root());
#print "Admin AuthResponse = ".$admAuthResponse->to_string("pretty")."\n";
my $admAuthToken = $admAuthResponse->find_child('authToken')->content;
#print "admAuthToken $admAuthToken\n";
my $admContext = $SOAP->zimbraContext($admAuthToken, $admin);
# my $admContextStr = $admContext->to_string("pretty");
# print "admContextStr $admContextStr\n";
my $delega = new XmlDoc;
$delega->start('DelegateAuthRequest', "urn:zimbraAdmin");
# print $userId."\n";
$delega->add('account', undef, { by => "name"}, $userId );
$delega->end();
# Get a new auth token that is valid for $userId
my $delegaAuthResponse = $SOAP->invoke($admUrl, $delega->root(),$admContext);
# print "Delega AuthResponse = ".$delegaAuthResponse->to_string("pretty")."\n";
my $delegaAuthToken = $delegaAuthResponse->find_child('authToken')->content;
my $newContext = $SOAP->zimbraContext($delegaAuthToken, $userId);


first I authenticate as admin
then obtain a delegated authtoken
from the new authtoken I retrieve the newContext that I can use instead of the old context obtained authenticating the user

My DelegateAuthResponse was not including the Admin Context! Simply added the context I got from the initial AuthRequest and presto, my DelegateAuthResponse was successful!

MANY thanks to all who helped me understand this a little better!

I have posted this on another thread but this thread seems more 'soap active' so here goes ... hopefully i can get some help ...thanks folks ...

__________________________________________________ ________________

I have major SOAP connectivity issues as well and have almost given up pursuing this. I tried using the Java code mentioned in an earlier post to no avail. Here is my code and the errors are meaningless as i dont have the source code for SoapTransport..

SoapProvisioning sp = new SoapProvisioning();
sp.soapSetURI("https://localhost:7071/zimbraAdmin/");
sp.soapAdminAuthenticate("admin","password");
createZimbraAccount = sp.createAccount("username", "password", getMap());

and my error is ...

Ive included zimbrastore.jar into my project along with the other jar files. is your issue similar to this ...
