upload_xml_profile_wsdl exception

Hi,   I'm trying to upload a WSDL file to associate with an XML profile in ASM, but getting an exception saying "The XML profile doesn't have a WSDL file".   This is my code:   import bigsuds ...

Yes, the file exists. The reason why xml_file has a full path is because Python opens the file to read its contents, so it needs to know where to find it, whereas wsdl_filename is (to my understanding) just a string to associate with the file contents on BigIP.

 

I don't think the names of the parameters matter, but I did try to rename them to match the documentation exactly - with no success. I don't understand what the exception "The XML profile doesn't have a WSDL file" means (of course it doesn't have a file yet, that's exactly what I'm trying to accomplish :-)), and there doesn't seem to be documentation about this error.

 

I'm wondering if anyone has succeeded to upload a WSDL file to an XML profile via API (either SOAP or REST)?

    OK, fair enough. Do you need to call the os.path module perhaps?
