使用python suds连接到Microsoft CRM时，为什么会出现连接错误/超时？

Question

When I try to connect to an MS CRM web service using suds/python-ntlm, I am getting a timeout on requests. However, the code that I'm trying to replace -- which calls out to the cURL command line app to do the same call -- succeeds.

Clearly something is different in the way that cURL is sending the command data, but I'll be damned if I know what the difference is. Below are the full details of the various calls. Anyone got any tips?

Here's the code that is making the request, followed by the output. The cURL command code is below that, and its response follows. Hosts, users, and passwords have been changed to protect the innocent, of course.

wsdl_url = 'https://client.service.host/MSCrmServices/2007/MetadataService.asmx?WSDL'
username = r'domain\user.name'
password = 'userpass'

from suds.transport.https import WindowsHttpAuthenticated
from suds.client import Client

import logging
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.INFO)
logging.getLogger('suds.client').setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
logging.getLogger('suds.transport').setLevel(logging.DEBUG)

ntlmTransport = WindowsHttpAuthenticated(username=username, password=password)
metadata_client = Client(wsdl_url, transport=ntlmTransport)

request = metadata_client.factory.create('RetrieveAttributeRequest')
request.MetadataId = '00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000'
request.EntityLogicalName = 'opportunity'
request.LogicalName = 'new_typeofcontact'
request.RetrieveAsIfPublished = 'false'

attr = metadata_client.service.Execute(request)
print attr

Here's the output:

Answer 1

It looks like you might be having a problem with the location in the WSDL. If you check the debug output when it says it is sending:

DEBUG:suds.transport.http:sending:
URL:http://client.service.host/MSCrmServices/2007/MetadataService.asmx 

Note that the URL is http, and that does not vibe with the initial connection, which was https.

Try modifying the instantiation of your client by adding a location argument to force it to use https like so:

svc_url = 'https://client.service.host/MSCrmServices/2007/MetadataService.asmx'
metadata_client = Client(wsdl_url, transport=ntlmTransport, location=svc_url)

(Note that the service URL should be the same of as the WSDL URL minus the ?WSDL ).

Answer 2

svc_url = 'https://client.service.host/MSCrmServices/2007/MetadataService.asmx'
metadata_client = Client(wsdl_url, transport=ntlmTransport, location=svc_url, cache=None)

Adding cache=None actually do the trick.
