Hi Burak,

Thanks for the update.

I usually test my python web service using WebService Studio (http://webservicestudio.codeplex.com/)

I run static.py and basic.py, one at a time.

For static.py wsdl url was http://localhost/app?wsdl
And for basic.py wsdl url was http://localhost/?wsdl

Above information was not readily available in docs, so it would be useful, if we put it somewhere.

When I used WebService Studio to load the either wsdl url and generate proxy objects, it failed.

So, you can use this tool to make wsdl inter-operable as well.

I have also posted my question on stackoverflow with details on SOAPpy problem.

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3358792/is-python-good-for-writing-standard-compatible-and-complete-soap-web-services

A small update for static.py.

I am using twisted '8.2.0' which is little bit old, but could be useful.

Replace: Line 46
    resource = WSGIResource(reactor, reactor.getThreadPool(), application)
To:
    resource = WSGIResource(reactor, reactor, application)
