why does my webservice web reference not work in aspx project?!

[Eskimo]

Hi,

I have a webservice on my local development box.

I add a web reference in a web application to it.
My reference usually comes up as "localhost" but that doesn't work when I
try localhost.<webservice> ws = new ... to use it...

What would you recommend?

Change the name localhost to something more meaningfull and then try with
that new name...
Hths...
P.S : If this post helped you, pls click Yes on top of this post. Thanks

I already tried that.

It was a namespace issue.
Which points out the IDE's alphabetic dependency in solution explorer
causing an issue upon compile.

Yes, I looked at project build order. No, it did not help either.

TODO: namespaces should reflect the context you're in

i.e.

ESKIMO.PIE.WEBPAGES
ESKIMO.PIE.DAL
ESKIMO.PIE.BLL
ESKIMO.PIE.UIL

versus

ESKIMO.PIE.CHOCOLATE <database namespace> in dll
ESKIMO.PIE.CHOCOLATE <webpage namespace> in web service project

Hi,

I have same issue as you had. I'm not quite understand your solution. Could
you give me more in details?
Here is my senario:
1. my web service was developed in VS2005 in C# as web site,
[WebService(Namespace = "http://www.CompanyName.com/")]
public class Login : System.Web.Services.WebService {
....}
2. I deployed it on my local XP machine as virtual directory "TestWebService".
3. I created a test web application by File>New>Web Site>ASP.NET Web Site,
name it TestWebSite.
4. I added web reference from my web test application which is in VS2005 C#,
renamed the reference name to "TestLoginServ".
5. Added a button on the Default.aspx, and in button1_click event, tried to
use TestLoginServ.Login class, failed.

What should I do for namespace?

Thanks.
William
