DNS Updates

[Lori McDonald]

I have a Windows Form that is calling a webservice.

Over the weekend, we moved the webservice to a new server. However, the
Windows Form is failing with errors that indicate it does not see the new
server. We see the DNS change at the machine running the Windows application
because we can do a ping and get the correct address.

The maching is running Windows XP.

Any suggestions? If it is pinging the correct IP address for that domain
name, why would it not be reaching it via the web services?

Also, I forgot to mention that the URL they are using for the webservice is
using SSL (https://www.myclient.com/service.asmx) I don't know if that would
have any affect on this.

Hi Lori:

I will take a shot at answering the question, though I am almost sure that
you would have already taken care of this -

Can you throw some more light on what you mean by "moved the webservice to a
new server". Is the new server called the same as the old server (i.e. is it
a replacement)? If not, then you have to regenerate the proxy. And when you
regenerate the proxy pick the service's Url from [web|app].config so that
when you move servers next, you don't have to recompile clients.

Mujtaba.

Thanks for your response, but actually it is called the same thing so I don't
need that in this case.

What happens when you invoke the servers test page from the client that is
failing?
