Hello
I am trying to implement a Web Service and the message I created has the HTTPInput node to receive the incoming requests.
I am having issue with the URL that I need to give in the HTTPInput node properties. I gave URL as
https://<hostName>:port/MyService
When I use this URL, everything is working perfect. But I would like to use relative path instead of absolute one. So as per docs I would like to use the following URL
/MyService
But this request never reached the message flow. What could be the problem and what settings I need to change to make this relative path work. |

You can put a fully qualified URL into the HTTPInput node properties if you like.
And unless it actually matches the hostname of the broker machine, and the port that you have configured the bipHTTPListener to run on, it will only make things confused.
That is, you should be using the relative url only for HTTPInput nodes.

I am agian confused. My Service is working perfect when I give full URl like https://hostname:port/MyService
But when I give URL as /MyService it is not working.....the messages never reaches to the Message Flow.
I don't want to put full URL as it is making things confused when I try to deploy to different machines. So how I can use the relative path. What is wrong with the relative path I gave above.
Did I miss something in your explanation ?? |

On the face of it that should work fine, but you haven't shown the exact URL that's being used in your client application.
Try changing your HTTPInput node URL to be /MyService/* and don't forget to restart the Broker twice when you change a URL. |

I dont think you ahve restart the broker for url change.
as far as your flow not working
I am agian confused. My Service is working perfect when I give full URl like https://hostname:port/MyService
are u using the localhost and then the broker https port name??
also since ur full url has https ....... when u give only the service name ...... are you checking the https checkbox??
can u give us an example url u r using for this ?

my actual URL is and broker is on an AIX box
https://swgmq07.rochny.ibm.com:7083/Subscriptions
This is working fine as is as I can see the same url when I use the method getServiceEndPoint() method. So my client got correct URL.
All I am doing is, change the url in httpinput node to /Subscriptions
And I am getting a time out error and I don't see any errors or anything in the system log. I enabled the debug on my message flow and I can see no message is coming to the flow. |

| Since you are using https://....... in your URL ...... are you checking the HTTPS checkbox in HTTP Input Node. |

Hi,
After changing the URL, try stopping and starting the broker twice.

| Thanks for this tip. This trick worked. Any idea what could be the reason behind it. Why we need to bounce the broker. I was surprised because first I tried with relative path and it didin't work. Then I changed to full path and it started working. But after when I reached a stage where I need to move this to other server, I started working on relative path again. So question is do we need to recycle the broker twice whenever we deploy a message flow with a HTTPInput node and relative path even though first time we deploy this with relative path ?? |

You need to recycle broker twice when the URL changes, in order for the change to be picked up.
You can never use fully-qualified URLs. You must use relative URLs.

I found the required information in Infocenter.
I followed all the steps but i forgot to bounce the broker twice thats why it didn't worked.
These are the commands which helped me to configure the HTTPS connectivity.
