Hi ,
I am very new to web services . I created the traditional hello world example . For testing purpose when I try to give
http://localhost/NHGCF/SampleService.asmx ,it works giving me a default page and a button to invoke .
But when I tried to specify the method name in the following way ,
http://localhost/NHGCF/SampleService.asmx/GetSecurityInfo
it gave a error saying "Request format is unrecognized"

Can anyone please help

You need to specify protocol in configuration file as:

<webServices>
<protocols>
<add name="HttpPost" />
<add name="HttpGet" />
</protocols>
<webServices>

Hope this answers your question.

WebService can be accessed by default using SOAP Protocol.(can use only HttpPost when requesting WebService on local server). To enable Http Get Request for requesting web service, add the foll info to the web.config

<system.web>
<webServices>
<protocols>
<add name="HttpGet"/>
</protocols>
</webServices>
</system.web>
