this part of the project is deprecated and only get security fixes, sorry.

I've checked this ticket and confirmed the issue happened on lucee latest version 5.3.8.177-SNAPSHOT also. While accessing a component that runs on the ACF server using URL by cfinvoke webservice throws an error in lucee like ERROR: Missing soap: fault element inFault "testCFCInvocationException" in operation "testCFCInvocationException", in binding remotetest. Seems, In ACF can able to access a component running in Lucee.

The component is on a different server. We’ve been using registered services in the ACF admin for years. The services are all urls on a different server. They are all registered as https://[server]:[port]/[folder]/file.cfc?wsdl

I’ve been trying to test registered services on Lucee without success as well.

I've checked this ticket with both lucee affected version 5.3.7.48 and the latest version 5.3.8.175-SNAPSHOT. For me, Using URL in the component attribute for cfinvoke to access the component throws an error in both lucee and ACF. Using the component path in cfinvoke works fine for me.

The below the code throws same error above mentioned in both ACF and lucee.

@Ian Rutherford where is your component located?

I've tried the following without success as well:

ws = createObject("webservice", "http://url/component.cfc");

(malformed xml)

ws = createObject("webservice", "http://url/component.wsdl"); (can't find file)

ws = createObject("webservice", "http://url/component.cfc?wsdl"); (missing soap fault)

<cfset result = component.method(variable,http://url/component.cfc)>

Fatal Error: URI=http://url/component.cfc Line=79: Content is not allowed in prolog

Adding output= and returnformat= to the cffunction tag doesn’t change the result.

Tested basic component remotely using cfinvoke:

Fatal Error: URI=http://url/remotetest.cfc Line=79: Content is not allowed in prolog.

<cfcomponent output="false" displayname="test">

<cffunction name="remotetest1" access="remote" returnType="string" returnformat="plain">

       <cfset test = "test">

       <cfreturn test>

</cffunction>

</cfcomponent>
