tcpmon on windows issue for tracking http and soap message

[Joey Jackson]

hi, im trying to test tcpmon on windows for the following endpoint and not having any luck.

http://localhost:8888/ts?wsdl

I have published the service Interface bean and have configured tcpmon to the following:
listen port: 8888
host: 127.0.0.1
port: 8080

supposedly if i want to see the send and recieve message I go to a browser and I enter http://localhost:8888 or something. but I dont get any result from tcpmon.

can anyone guide me here?

Hi!
When using TCPmon, your needs to send requests to TCPmon which in turn forwards the requests to the real service endpoint.
Thus, if TCPmon is listening on port 8888, you should change the web service to listen on another port (8080 in your example).
If you want to monitor a client-server interaction without changing the client or the service, use a tool like WireShark.
Best wishes!
