FACT(s) (Environment):

OpenEdge 10.0x
Windows
Web Services

SYMPTOM(s):

Unable to access Web Services when DLC is defined as a UNC path.

Error loading WSDL document
<WSDL URL>: Cannot create reference to the element 'simpleType' (11748)

Works fine when DLC is pointing to a mapped-drive or drive letter.

CAUSE:

Release Note# 100A-10186

CAUSE:

On the Windows platform, the DLC environment variable must refer to a drive-letter mapped drive and NOT a UNC pathname. The standard installation of OpenEdge already enforces this restriction. If the DLC environment variable contains a UNC pathname, the Web Service infrastructure will not function properly.

FIX:

Use mapped drives instead.
- OR -
If you cannot use mapped drives, then use the Windows SUBST command to substitute the UNC path for a drive letter, e.g.:
SUBST F: \\server\progress\100b

Then point your DLC to F:\
