I got the web service to work on the development LPAR. I am trying to set

the web service I am creating is not found.

The error message is:

Hi Darryl,
I am forbidden to do any web work here, so it's a curiosity thing for me to look at this whole concept. So... understand that I don't have any production experience with this.

The way I understand it, the message you're seeing is saying that the web server already exists. Look at :2001/HTTPAdmin, the Application Servers tab. There's a drop-down for all of the servers defined. I created one called WSERVICE, and in that drop-down, it says 'WSERVICE - V2.6 (web services)' So, this is the 'web service'.

When I click that entry, I see the services I've deployed. Despite you and I thinking of these bottom entries as web services, IBM is calling them 'Deployed Services'.

Vocabulary/terminology is going to be the end of me. I hope this triggers some ideas...
