Subject: Re: SOAP Envelope Error

I figured out that 90% of my problem was a trailing slash in my
namespace! I get a valid response from ASP.NET now.

However, my final question is how to convert my result into a boolean.
I get this object as a result now:  #<SOAP::Mapping::Object:0x3ddd1d4>

Here's my code:

require 'soap/rpc/driver'
include SOAP::RPC

URL = "http://web001whp001:3250/Wahp.Provisioning/User.asmx"
NS = "http://affinity.com/Wahp/Provisioning"
SOAP_ACTION = "http://affinity.com/Wahp/Provisioning/IsValidLogin"
USERNAME = "SHARED\\Administrator"
PASSWORD = "$secure$"

class AuthenticationClient
  def initialize()
    @driver = Driver.new(URL,NS,SOAP_ACTION)
    @driver.wiredump_dev = STDOUT
    @driver.options["protocol.http.basic_auth"] << [URL, USERNAME,
PASSWORD]

    @driver.add_document_method('IsValidLogin',SOAP_ACTION,
      [XSD::QName.new(NS,'IsValidLogin')],
      [XSD::QName.new(NS,'IsValidLoginResult')])

    result =
@driver.IsValidLogin(:username=>"Username",:password=>"Password")
    end
end

AuthenticationClient.new

And here is my SOAP response:

Thanks,
Mark
