Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Application Server:
Administration

Changing Web service properties

In this scenario, you deploy a Web service, then you want to change a property that takes effect only when the Web service is disabled and re-enabled.

To change Web service properties:

Notify all clients that the Web service is going to be disabled at a certain time.
Wait until no clients are using the Web service.
Disable the Web service.
Modify the Web service’s properties, as desired, using the Progress Explorer or the WSAMAN utility’s setprops function.
Enable the Web service.
Notify clients that the Web service is available.

You do not have to disable and enable a Web service to modify its serviceLoggingLevel property, which changes the level of information provided in log messages, or its serviceFaultLevel property, which changes the level of information provided in SOAP Fault response messages. For more information, see the information on debugging Progress 4GL Web services in OpenEdge Development: Web Services .
