Asp .net 2.0 Unable to Connect to Remote Server

[haroldbk]

I have a small Asp .net 2.0 application with a web reference to a
Webservice.
Running locally works fine, but when I run it from the Web Server the
exception Unable to Connect to Remote Server is returned.

Tried 2 different Web Services - both locally on from the Web server.
This is a code snippet:
try

{

net.webservicex.www.CurrencyConvertor cc = new
net.webservicex.www.CurrencyConvertor();

cc.Url = "http://www.webservicex.net/CurrencyConvertor.asmx?WSDL";

net.webservicex.www.Currency dollar = net.webservicex.www.Currency.USD;

net.webservicex.www.Currency shekel = net.webservicex.www.Currency.ILS;

string rate = cc.ConversionRate(dollar, shekel).ToString();

Label4.Text = rate;

}

catch (Exception ex)

{

Label4.Text = ex.Message.ToString();

}



Any ideas?

Thanks,

Harold

When you set the URL property, you should probably leave off the ?WSDL. To
be more sure of what you should set the URL to, check the WSDL file for the
soap:address element.

Generally, for a .net web service, this is the asmx address but for other
web service providers, the WSDL address is used for setting the web reference
but when setting the URL you will use a completely different address - that
specified in the soap:address element.

I found the answer.
I had to add the proxy server to the Web.config file.
