Microsoft Reporting Services

Scarborough has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Anyone seen articales or know how to connect to Microsoft Reporting Services as a web service.

I've tried

my $wsdl = "http:/$mysever/reportserver/reportservice.asmx";
my $PerlPackageDatabase = WebService::ServiceProxy->new($wsdl);
print $PerlPackageDatabase->readPackageAbstract("SOAP-Lite");

#output 
#401 Unauthorized at #C:/Perl/site/lib/WebService/ServiceProxy.pm line
+ 94.

But I can find much info. on this Module.

Your code says`my $wsdl = "http:/$mysever/reportserver/reportservice.asmx";` Should that be `my $wsdl = "http://$mysever/reportserver/reportservice.asmx";`instead? Just a thought.

~~your two lines are identical~~ (Update: Ah. one slash vs two.. well, hopefully the sever/server note will help OP as well) ... did you mean to suggest that `$mysever` should be `$myserver` ? to the OP -- be sure to use `use strict;` and `use warnings;` to catch that type of error..

Nope. At the time of this writing, the `http:/...` is different from `http://`. --MidLifeXis	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Soory to say I did have the double //. I seem to be getting as far as the service but its kicking me out because I'm not sending any security information.	[reply]

What kind of error are you getting? What do the logs say? Alex / talexb / Toronto "Groklaw is the open-source mentality applied to legal research" ~ Linus Torvalds	[reply]
