I have a problem accessing the web services?wsdl for SharePoint lists, sites etc.
I can see the list of operations using the following URLS:
http://test.com/_vti_bin/Lists.asmx - returns a list of operations for OOTB Service
http://test.com/_vti_bin/sites.asmx - returns a list of operations for OOTB Service
However, when I try to view WSDL document using the following URLs:
http://test.com/_vti_bin/Lists.asmx?wsdl - returns a 404 error
http://test.com/_vti_bin/sites.asmx?wsdl - returns a 404 error
On the test enviroment, I can see the WSDL being returned but on the production it returns 404 errors as mentioned above.
I'm also seeing this message in the logs:
Error on page: http://test.com/_vti_bin/wswsdl.aspx?WSDL System.Web.HttpUnhandledException: Exception of type 'System.Web.HttpUnhandledException' was thrown. ---> System.IO.FileNotFoundException: There is no Web named "/careers/Pages/_vti_bin/sites.asmx".
It seems that asmx to wsdl coversion is not working well on production enviroment. Any ideas will be appreciated.
I have also made sure to add "<protocols><add name="Documentation"/></protocols>" to the WebServices element of web.config of webservice.
could it be possible that in your production environment that the web.config actually configured to remove the Documentation protocol instead of adding it?
