Hi all,
I'm a new to BioMOBY. I tried to register a service that takes an Object
'Global_Keyword' as the input and returns String 'Global_Keyword' as the
output. I tested my Service (cgi) locally using a perl client and it works
fine.
For example the output is "Welcome to BioMOBY Vijay" for the input "Vijay"
I registered this service with MOBY. The service got registered but when I
send the Input object to my service. I got "Service Unavailable" message.
What is the mistake that I'm be doing?
The following is the source code (If I failed to explain correctly). All the
files are in my cgi-bin directory.
hibye.pl (The client I used to test my service)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w
use SOAP::Lite;
my $name = shift;
print SOAP::Lite
-> uri('http://prometheus.brc.mcw.edu/Demo')
-> proxy('http://prometheus.brc.mcw.edu/vnarayan-bin/hibye.cgi')
->welcome($name)
-> result;
hibye.cgi (The Service)
--------------------------------
#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w
use SOAP::Transport::HTTP;
use Demo;
SOAP::Transport::HTTP::CGI
-> dispatch_to('Demo')
-> handle;
Demo.pm ( The modules that has the subroutine welcome)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----
#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w
package Demo;
sub welcome{
shift; # remove class name
return "Welcome to BioMOBY" ." ". shift;
}
1;
RegisterService.pl (The code that I used to register my service)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------
#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w
use MOBY::Client::Central;
my $C = MOBY::Client::Central->new();
$C->registerService(
serviceName => "HiService",
serviceType => "Retrieval",
authURI => "http://prometheus.brc.mcw.edu",
contactEmail => 'vnarayan at mail.brc.mcw.edu',
description => "Vj's test service that welcomes you to BIOMOBY. Enter
your first name",
category => "moby",
URL => "http://prometheus.brc.mcw.edu/vnarayan-bin/hibye.pl",
input =>[ ['asdf',[Object => ['Global_Keyword']]],], # Simple
output =>[['asdfg', [String => ['Global_Keyword']]],], # Simple
);
exit 0;
