I created a Web Service in .Net and so the address of the service file has a nifty auto generated explanation about how it works. When I run the page from the machine it's hosted on it even has a form that I can use to submit test values to the service. However on remote machines it hides the form and gives the message as seen above.
Is there a point to this? I've seen other sites call this "more secure" but anyone could create their own forms easily making this nothing more than a nuisance if you ask me.
You can work around this issue by modifying your web.config
to include these nodes:
<configuration> <system.web> <webServices> <protocols> <add name="HttpGet"/> <add name="HttpPost"/> </protocols> </webServices> </system.web> </configuration>
This will allow you to visit the .asmx web service via your browser. You can then invoke the web services right in your browser, pass arguments, and view the results.
