ADF/SOA/Weblogic: Enabling fiddler for all webservice requests made by weblogic server


Problem Description: In ADF/SOA or simple J2EE application we may have requirement to enable third party webservices and we want to see exact request and response messages. Fiddler comes handy to me. In this blog I want to set fiddler to show all request/response messages sent by weblogic.



Solution

1. Install Fiddler: You can download and install fiddler from https://www.telerik.com/download/fiddler



2. Modify setDomainEnv.sh and add below line

set JAVA_OPTIONS=%JAVA_OPTIONS% -Dhttp.proxySet=true -Dhttp.proxyHost=127.0.0.1 -Dhttp.proxyPort=8888



Thats all. Now whenever your weblogic server will make a request to third party server, that request will go via fiddler and you can see exact Request/Response messages is fiddler.



Its very useful in SOA framework where you need to invoke services very frequently.
