The test form is only available for requests from the local machine

Hello,

I have a webservice with two functions. One sends a JSON object to the server and stores it in a file, while the other function retrives the JSON object from the server. The webservice works perfectly in local, but when I try it in a remote server, I get the well known "The test form is only available for requests from the local machine" error.

As suggested in different forums, I have added the protocols to my web.config file:

</system.web>
    <webServices>
      <protocols>
        <add name="HttpSoap12"/>
        <add name="HttpSoap"/>
        <add name="HttpGet"/>
        <add name="HttpPost"/>
      </protocols>
    </webServices>
  </system.web>


Adding the POST protocol makes the second function (the one that retrives the object) available from remote, but the first one is still only available from the local machine.

I haven't been hable to find the solution to this problem, as every solution I found was just to add the protocols in the web.config file, which only work for one of the two functions.

Maybe it has something to do with using a object type as imput for the function?

Any suggestion will be helpful.

Thank you and best regards,
