I have a tool that downloads the eBay Trading API WSDL (https://developer.ebay.com/webservices/1379/ebaysvc.wsdl) and builds the associated Java classes (ie. I am trying to access it in code.). However, I am getting a HTTP 403 error. I was not experiencing 403 errors several months ago. Is there something I need to do to access the WSDL in a headless manner? Has something changed on the server that forbids programmatic access to the WSDL?
I am still able to download the Trading API WSDL from a Web browser without any credentials whatsoever.
I could reconfigure the tool use a local WSDL copy, but I would rather not.
Sample of errors I am receiving ...
First Example (JAX-WS Maven plugin)
[ERROR] Server returned HTTP response code: 403 for URL: https://developer.ebay.com/webservices/1379/ebaysvc.wsdl
Failed to read the WSDL document: https://developer.ebay.com/webservices/1379/ebaysvc.wsdl, because 1) could not find the document; 2) the document could not be read; 3) the root element of the document is not <wsdl:definitions>.
Second Example (cURL)
$ curl https://developer.ebay.com/webservices/1379/ebaysvc.wsdl
