Setting up HTTP service to run from localhost for testing of Web services

I am playing around with Web Services on a local PC with the 8.5.1 client installed and have run the local nhttp service. I’m having a reasonable degree of success up to a point but keep getting stopped by the following error:

“Web Service DatabaseInfo method GETDBNAME error org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: White spaces are required between publicId and systemId.”

It’s probably some minor configurational setting rather than specific coding as it’s reproducable across multiple agents/databases whenever I try to access data through a Web Service consumer. Anyone have an idea or suggestion?

Subject: It means the web service is not returning the format expected

In my case the problem was that the consumer did not have rights to access the provider.
