HTTP 500 Error jQuery Ajax with Web service

I have two simple projects in a single Visual Studio solution to understand how a jQuery ajax request works. One is a web service and the second one is a project consuming the web service.

You can download the very small project from here. Download Project file

As you can see in the project, Whenever I try to call the Web Service, Internal Server Error 500 is occurring.

In chrome, I can see the following alert (executed by “Error” function of Ajax call)

Please assist me to find the problem..

EDIT:

function btnClick() {
        debugger;
        var txtValue = $('#txtValue');
        var text = txtValue.val();
        //
        //
        $.ajax({
            url: "http://localhost:12000/ExampleJsonWS.asmx/getValue",
            type: "POST",
            dataType: "json",
            data: "{" + txtValue.val() + "}",
            timeout: 30000,
            async: false,
            contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
            success: function (data) {
                debugger;
                alert(data);
                return data;
            },
            error: function (result) {
                debugger;
                //alert(e);
                alert(result.status + ' ' + result.statusText);
            }
        });
    }

Thank you for visiting the Q&A section on Magenaut. Please note that all the answers may not help you solve the issue immediately. So please treat them as advisements. If you found the post helpful (or not), leave a comment & I’ll get back to you as soon as possible.

Method 1

The problem was that its not possible to POST with keeping the web service in different project while a GET can do that. (Explained by Phillip Haydon). If I understand it wrong or someone want to share more about it, then they are welcome 🙂

For more info you can have a look at this link

The better alternative is to keep a Web service inside the project and call the other Webservice (which is needed) into the Project’s web service.

Method 2

I think the problem may be in your call to web service from Example.aspx:

url: "http://localhost:12000/ExampleJsonWS.asmx/getValue",

Try something like this:

url: "/ExampleJsonWS.asmx/getValue",
