  1. Hi Albin,

    I am dealing with a scenario where i have to interact with some web service which entertain XML argument input and return XML output only,(my service is on weblogic and the service which i am trying to call is on glassfish)
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    example:- my BPEL's inputs and outputs corresponding webservice inputs and outputs are like.

    @ BPEL input and outputs
    ---------------------------------------------
    *Input to my BPEL-->>
    request ---username type "string"
    ---password type "string"


    *output from my BPEL-->>
    response ---status type=" string"
    ---code type ="string"



    @ the webservice which i am trying to call: input and outputs

    inputXML


    outputXML
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    the reference side have only one input i.e input XML.. and also after successful login it should give out the response in such a format so that my BPEL can interact with that so until and unless i did not found a solution to convert my input to the BPEL (input xsd) to XML i will not able to do so .I have tried the following -- Using the XPath function-- ora:parseEscapedXML() to take an XML string and convert it to DOM format for processing in BPEL but getting Xpath error. Please Please help me out if you have any solutions.

    #Secondly
    To escape the above deadlock we place a wrapper layer between both the service my services are running on weblogic and the service which i am trying to call is on glassfish ,with this approach we are Successfully hitting the service but not getting any response but instead getting error-----"error getting response;java.net.SocketTimeoutException:Read timed in weblogic" please suggest me if you have any solutions..

    Thanks and Regards
    Abhishek Ajral
