BDC Rocks

  • Article

This BDC-thing is awesome, but creating the XML file is like what Ford Fairlane said with the cheese grater. :)  Tried with two 3rd party tools as well and they were not making it easier. Just one quick error message to share with the public, maybe it helps someone. later, I'll share the whole process, it's actually very nice.

ISSUE:

When configuring BDC to use a web service data source, you get an error message:

The LobSystem/LobSystemInstance Property 'WsdlFetchUrl' is missing

RESOLUTION:

The problem was that I was defining the WsdlFetchUrl property on the LobSystemInstance and not on the LobSystem level.

MORE INFORMATION:

This nice call stack maybe helps you find this article ;)

An exception was caught in BdcSearchPH interop while getting the Id stream:
