I have written code in both Java and C# to call a web services method on a third party web site.  I receive an "Invalid Request" response.  I told the programmer for the web service that I thought I did everything right and got this response.  He said to "Please send [him] the full request you are sending, header, body & timestamp and we’ll check the server log."  How would you generally communicate this with somebody? I created the message in Java and C#, and he doesn't want my code snippet.  Should I capture with wireshark, or is there a generally accepted method or some other convenient often use tool(s) that people use for this?  Is this a reasonable request, or since nobody is using their web service but me yet, isn't it reasonable for me to just ask them to look at their logs?


What is the best way to resolve a web service call issue between two programmers?

A Web service is a method of communication between two electronic devices over a network. It is a software function provided at a network address over the Web with the service always on as in the concept of utility computing. A web service has an interface described in Web Services Description Language (WSDL). Other systems interact with the Web service in a manner prescribed by its description using SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) messages. There are two major classes of Web services: REST-compliant web services, and Arbitrary web services.
