10/31/2023, 5:33 PMHello all - I think I am missing something very simple when converting an application from ACF to Lucee. When handling a very simple web service (being served by Lucee), I'm getting Axis errors.

10/31/2023, 5:33 PMHere are the combinations I have tried:
1: Hosted on ACF and called via <cfinvoke> ACF or Lucee -> Works fine
2: Hosted on Lucee and called via <cfinvoke> ACF or Lucee -> Axis error
3: Hosted on Lucee, manually create the SOAP XML and called via <cfhttp> -> Works fine
Creating the component and calling the method works fine in all cases. Just the remote web services being hosted on Lucee. The WSDL is slightly different on Lucee than ACF, but returns normally.

10/31/2023, 5:34 PMHere is what I get on Lucee. The top is the expected result, and it's from ACF. The bottom is what I am getting on Lucee.

10/31/2023, 5:46 PMOne more piece of debug info. In all of these cases, SoapUI returns the regular, normal result. Same when I manually build the soap xml and use <cfhttp> (on either ACF or Lucee). Only seems to be a problem when hosting on Lucee and calling on ACF or Lucee with <cfinvoke>

10/31/2023, 6:19 PMThe last time I tried to use Lucee to cfinvoke a SOAP web service it needed AXIS2 and I don't think Lucee does that

10/31/2023, 6:21 PMI did see that Lucee only has AXIS2, but was hoping for very simple web services, that wouldn't matter. You would think that Lucee could consume it's own web services though.

10/31/2023, 6:22 PMWe've never used Lucee to offer webservices from the built-in UI. We just use Coldbox REST, no reason to have that stuff coupled to the engine

10/31/2023, 6:22 PMEven when we used ACF I don't think we'd have done the built-in webservices stuff

Why not just return JSON? That's way less complicated and has a lot less overhead and I would think would be much more fault tolerant and less likely to cause problems down the road.
That said, Lucee should be able to communicate to itself. So either there's a bug in Lucee or something wacky in your install.

11/01/2023, 12:08 PMNo, there isn't a need for internal tasks. I was just using that as a test. The real process is exposed web services to third party clients. When I couldn't consume from another ACF web service, I set up Lucee to call itself and that returned the same error as above.

11/01/2023, 12:09 PMWhat is really strange is that SoupUI can consume it fine. And, if I had roll the soap xml and call with <cfhttp> from ACF or Lucee, it also works fine.
