I’ve followed the tutorials for setting up Apache with mod_wsgi to interface cherrypy and make a site running of it. This is my ‘myapp.wsgi’, and opening http://localhost/ works great. Opening http://localhost/ape/ actually returns the text instead of a soap-response, and http://localhost/ape/service.wsdl returns a 500 HTTP error code. What am I doing wrong in getting such a simple SOAP service to run? How can I get it to return valid WSDL? My code follows below

Cheers

Nik

import atexit, threading, cherrypy,sys from soaplib.wsgi_soap import SimpleWSGISoapApp from soaplib.service import soapmethod from soaplib.serializers.primitive import String, Integer, Array  sys.stdout = sys.stderr cherrypy.config.update({'environment': 'embedded'})  class Root(object):     def index(self):         return 'Hello World!'     index.exposed = True      @soapmethod(_returns=String)     def ape(self):        return 'Ape!!'     ape.exposed = True  application = cherrypy.Application(Root(), None)

  1. I just tested this myself by replacing the last line of your file with

    cherrypy.quickstart(Root(), '/')

    and it worked just fine for me. I suggest trying this and seeing whether it works for you; if it does then you’ll know that it’s an issue relating to running it under Apache/mod_wsgi and not an inherent problem with your code.
