tcpmon Java Axis2客户端Web服务响应被重定向

Question

I used Eclipse Indigo on Windows7 to generate Axis2 (Axis 1.6.1 JDK compliance 1.5) java stubs and successfully called the public web service at http://www.xmlme.com/WSShakespeare.asmx?WSDL Got perfect response to getSpeech method of said service. Then I used tcpmon (plugin) to see xml being exchanged. Added Listen port = 4556, Target Host name = www.xmlme.com and Target port = 80 This generated HTTP 302 Moved error. To recap works correctly when called with

ShakespeareSoapProxy ssp = new ShakespeareSoapProxy("http://www.xmlme.com:80/WSShakespeare.asmx?WSDL");

but fails when tcpmon listener added and called with

ShakespeareSoapProxy ssp = new ShakespeareSoapProxy("http://localhost:4556/WSShakespeare.asmx?WSDL"); 

tcpmon soap Request

Why is tcpmon failing as above is my primary question. WHY did I tcpmon it when the SOAP client worked perfectly? Because I generated a jar out of it and it worked great on Windows7. But when I ran the same jar on my iSeries aka AS400 server it gave me Axis fault HTTP 401 unauthorized & Authentication required message. Our IT guys do run websense to block stuff but this is localhost on windows client where I have run .NET web services before. Ideas, responses are greatly appreciated, thanks.

Edit - Some research points at NTLM default credentials that windows sends and server doesnt? Anyone want to comment if that could be it?

Answer 1

The IP you're being redirected to (172.16.1.6) is local to your network (see "Reserved IP addresses" .) Check with your network administrators whether they're blocking your request to www.xmlme.com and why.

It looks to me like the problem should reproduce without tcpmon as well. You can use a network sniffer (eg Wireshark ) to compare the traffic with and without tcpmon.
