I have a webservice (implemented in spring java) that's running in a my local machine. Now I can use rest client(Firefox plugin) to invoke webservice from my own machine however when I am trying to access the webservice from another machine the server is throwing HTTP 403 error! I have disabled firewall in my local machine still the same forbidden error is being thrown. What could possibly be the reason?

  • HTTP 403 means that your webservice can be reached (because it responds with a HTTP 403 error). The webservice determined that what you were trying to do is forbidden. Check your webservice logs what is going on. – Stefan Oct 31 '14 at 09:41
  • Do you access your Webservice using HTTPS? Because in that case you may need to add the servers certificate to your clients truststore – JBA Oct 31 '14 at 09:42

    No I am not using HTTPS .It seems like the request is not coming upto my server! – Smrita Oct 31 '14 at 09:45
  • What is in the web service log files? – Dawood ibn Kareem Oct 31 '14 at 09:50
