Web Services [Magento]

[Guest]

I'm totally cross posting this....  sorry to be rude, just not getting any action in the advanced forum.

Can anyone make this work?

I'm trying to connect to/consume a webservice from a Magento commerce store [written in php] but am having problems with coldfusion not being able to "find" the methods I need to invoke.

- I can create the object, log in, get a session but nothing [NOTHING!] else, none of the other methods are available - I just get a method not found error.

- the user "register" with key "register" has permission to use them and I can [have] prove that it works, I can for example call up  the store category tree VIAcatalogCategoryTree.

- the dump of the mage_obj shows all the methods available.

- The webservice is a Magento store [http://www.magentocommerce.com/]

- The API documentation is here http://www.magentocommerce.com/support/magento_core_api

- the webservice url is live, up and a test instance, so I am not afraid of it getting broken, please test to your heart's desire!

<cfscript>mage_obj = CreateObject(webservice, http://mage.bigblock.ca/api/v2_soap?wsdl); mage_session = mage_obj.login('register','register');//retcat = mage_obj.catalogCategoryTree(mage_cats);</cfscript><cfdump var="#mage_session#" /> <cfdump var="#mage_obj#" /> <!---cfdump var="#retcat#" /--->

If anyone can take a look, give this a try - give me any clues as to why I can't access the webservice VIA CFMX, I would REALLY-REALLY appreciate it.

I've been struggling with it for better than 2 days now. [more than 4 days now]

- thanks in advance

<cfscript>
	mage_obj = CreateObject("webservice",
"http://mage.bigblock.ca/api/v2_soap?wsdl");
	mage_session = mage_obj.login('register', 'register');
	retcat = mage_obj.catalogCategoryTree(mage_session, 1, 1);
</cfscript>

<cfdump var="#retcat.getName()#">

The above code kinda works for me (in the sense that it returns a

category called Root Catalog - I don't have experience with Magento's

web services).
