WCF / ASMX :: Accessing A Published Web Service Gives Null Ref Exception?
Sep 2, 2010
I have an Asp.net web service that I created using Visual Studio 2005. I can acess the web service in my test environment, call methods and return data as expected. If this web service is published to the outside world (Outside of the company firewall), it will return a null why this might be happening? The same code is being used,against the same database. The only difference is that the published website is giving back the null reference exception. If I type in the URL for the web service "https://secure.theSiteGeist.com/wsIndigo.asmx" a list of methods for the web service is displayed in my browser. Yet if I try and call any methods on the web service I get back the null reference exception. Note that the URL I posted above is not the real name of my web service, but is just used for reference sake.

I am making a call to a WCF service(Existing) from another WCF Service(New, my service), which is configured as Anonymous access. I did a service reference of my service to web application both under same solution file and web app is configured as Windows Authentication. When I call the existing WCF Service from my web app directly, everything works fine, but when I call the same existing WCF Service from my service, I got a "user does not have valid credentials" error. To avoid this error, I published my service to a server and referenced that URL to my web app. Though I got past the error, now, I am getting "Invalid Argument" error. No further information on the error.
Error source is MSCORLIB. There is no problem in the code of my service and the existing service, because if the same value that I get from the existing service is hard coded, then everything works fine. The existing service is used by many other app and it works fine. So, its a tested service. I tried to find a solution of "invalid argument" and I found few threads where others are facing the same problem when they publish a WCF service, but I did not find any proper solution for this.

I have a class that derives from System.Web.UI.Page and have set my pages to derive from this custom page class instead of Page. At runtime, the controls are never initialized and throw a NullReferenceException. I've changed some class names and namespaces in the pasted code to protect the innocent. The only thing that I currently override in my PageBase is OnPreLoad and I do call the base.OnPreLoad. I'll eventually add more functionality to this PageBase but for now all that it has is this:
[Code]....
I've tried putting this into a class library (with System.Web referenced) and I've also tried moving the class into the web application and had the same results either way. As another strange twist, I have another class with derives from PageBase called IndexPageBase and it doesn't have this problem:

We have a big portal with a lot of code written in classic asp + asp.net 2.0 + JavaScript. We are planning to slowly migrate to .net 3.5 framework with WCF Services. Currently the ASP.Net code is using some business layer to access the database. But most of the Classic ASP is using the old ADO code and directly accessing the data in the page itself. Now, we decided to add a WCF layer between the UI and Business which will be easier to implement with ASP.Net + 3.5, compared to Classic ASP. And we can't invest a lot of Man Hours in converting the Classic ASP pages to asp.net just yet. So we decided to Add a COM layer between Classic ASP and WCF services. So it will be like
Classic ASP -> COM -> CCW (COM Callable Wrapper - Interop) -> WCF -> Business for now.
Later on when we slowly convert the Classic asp pages to asp.net, the COM layer will be removed by default. But for now we are atleast pulling the Business code from Classic Asp pages. We are following this approach because we are not sure how to go about accessing the WCF Service directly from the Classic ASP code.

I am going to be receiving data in a web service. After I receive this data I will be mapping it to a data transfer object. I want to be able to catch exceptions if the data from the service is missing any of the required values, times out or any data is malformed.
What can I do to generally catch these exceptions?

I have a web service which is in a folder within my application. This folder is only accesible to certain roles. I use this service in a page on root of the application but I block creation of the javascript or the service definition in the aspx page if the user is not in the role.
The problem is that when anonymous users try to access the page in the root of the application they are prompted for a user name and password. I hope I am clear. The code below is what I have set up in the ASPX page:

writing a web Service and one of its web method, I want it to download a png file in form
of buffer from remote server. And My consume application will write that buffer retured by Web service in to file on User's Computer.
However, I am able to do this using Local Web Service but when I published that service on my web server, I always get null retuned
And even in one of my test code while copying file from that server , I always get Access Denied.
Following things I have done for above issue.
1] I even tried making the Anonymous user for the web service the system administrator (with the correct password), to no avail.
2] I also tried sharing out the folder I'm pulling files from to allow access from Everyone.
[Previously same service was working fine on another remote server with IIS 7.0, we checked server IIS Settings but in vain.]
if you know where we are mistaken guide me to resolve this issue as its very urgent.

I have a simple WCF service that returns the time from the server. I've confirmed that data is being sent by checking with Fiddler. Here's the result object xml that my service sends according to fiddler.
[Code]....
Literally the only difference is the namespaces within the application. But still the values being returned are null, empty or a .NET default.

I have a module that subscribes to PreRequestHandlerExecute event, which uses the Session object. When i set the webconfig compilationdebug flag to false, the Session object is null when making requests to the web service. It works fine for .aspx requests, but only have problems for .asmx. When i set the debug flag to true everything works fine. I need to set this flag to false for production, but can't seem to get it work.I'm using II7 and the integrated pipeline, so this event will fire for all requests.

These types of exceptions always irritate me because they are almost impossible to reproduce consistently and have almost no documentation other than the cryptic error itself to have any idea on how to fix the problem. So I have a Windows Service that makes a call to a .asmx web service over https on a polled interval every 20 minutes. Once in a great while the following exception message is returned:
Message: The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a receive.
Inner Message: System.IO.IOException: The decryption operation failed, see inner exception. ---> System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception:
The specified data could not be decrypted --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at
System.Net.Security._SslStream.ProcessReadErrorCode(SecurityStatus
errorCode, Byte[] buffer, Int32 offset, Int32 count, AsyncProtocolRequest asyncRequest, Byte[] extraBuffer) at System.Net.Security._SslStream.ProcessFrameBody(Int32 readBytes, Byte[] buffer, Int32 offset, Int32 count, AsyncProtocolRequest asyncRequest) at
System.Net.Security._SslStream.StartFrameBody(Int32 readBytes, Byte[] buffer, Int32 offset, Int32 count, AsyncProtocolRequest asyncRequest) at System.Net.Security._SslStream.StartFrameHeader(Byte[] buffer, Int32 offset, Int32 count, AsyncProtocolRequest asyncRequest)
at System.Net.Security._SslStream.StartReading(Byte[] buffer, Int32 offset, Int32 count, AsyncProtocolRequest asyncRequest) at System.Net.Security._SslStream.ProcessRead(Byte[] buffer, Int32 offset, Int32 count, AsyncProtocolRequest asyncRequest) at System.Net.TlsStream.Read(Byte[]
buffer, Int32 offset, Int32 size) at System.Net.PooledStream.Read(Byte[] buffer, Int32 offset, Int32 size) at System.Net.Connection.SyncRead(HttpWebRequest request, Boolean userRetrievedStream, Boolean probeRead)
So from reading the above message there was an error on receive and the data could not be decrypted. The does not occur consistently, so I don't have a good way of reproducing it. I also lack at low level messaging knowledge and I feel that this is the answer behind this exception; i.e. dropped packets and an incomplete message not appearing to be the same message as sent from the service or something. Any .asmx gurus out there that can give insight and possibly prevention suggestions for the above issue?

In our project WCF service is acting as our BLL.
i had scenario where i had to fill list of object class without knowing its type see code:
Added contract
[OperationContract]
dynamic GetReferenceTableData(string tableName);
method in service:
public dynamic GetReferenceTableData(string tableName)
{
try
{
dynamic tableData = ReferenceTableDAL.GetReferenceTableData(tableName);
return tableData;
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
throw;
}
}
method at DAL(ReferenceTableDAL):
public static dynamic GetReferenceTableData(string tableName)
{
Database db = DatabaseFactory.CreateDatabase(Flags.ConnectionStringKey);
DbCommand dbCommand = db.GetStoredProcCommand("USP_GETTABLEDATA");
dynamic objDynamic = null;
if (tableName.ToLower() == "a")
{
objDynamic = new List<A>();
}
else if (tableName.ToLower() == "b")
{
objDynamic = new List<B>();
}
else if (tableName.ToLower() == "c")
{
objDynamic = new List<C>();
}
try
{
db.DiscoverParameters(dbCommand);
dbCommand.Parameters["IN_TABLENAME"].Value = tableName;
DataSet dsTableData = db.ExecuteDataSet(dbCommand);
if (tableName.ToLower() == "a")
{
foreach (DataRow dataRow in dsTableData.Tables[0].Rows)
{
objDynamic.Add((A)dataRow);
}
}
else if (tableName.ToLower() == "b")
{
foreach (DataRow dataRow in dsTableData.Tables[0].Rows)
{
objDynamic.Add((B)dataRow);
}
}
else if (tableName.ToLower() == "c")
{
foreach (DataRow dataRow in dsTableData.Tables[0].Rows)
{
objDynamic.Add((C)dataRow);
}
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
throw;
}
return objDynamic;
}
@ Aspx
try
{
using (DataServiceRef.DataServiceClient petService = new DataServiceRef.DataServiceClient())
{
dynamic tableData = petService.GetReferenceTableData(tableName);
//tableData is null ,exception
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
throw;
}
There is no exception at dal or service end when i debug list gets filled ok but when returns to aspx error at aspx(no exception gets caught at @ service) but exception at aspx i.e:
Message:The underlying connection was closed: The connection was closed unexpectedly.
Stack Trace: at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.GetResponse()
at System.ServiceModel.Channels.HttpChannelFactory.HttpRequestChannel.HttpChannelRequest.WaitForReply(TimeSpan timeout)

I am working with this tutorial .[URL] In Visual Studio under the WCF REST program called .. TeamTask.Service is see the folding folders and files
[folder] Properties
[folder] References
[folder] AppData
[folder] Model
[file] Global.asax
[file] TeamService.cs
[file] Web.config
Then I use Build...Publish TeamTask.Service to move this up to my shared hosted server....it builds and publishes successfully
When I reset the client to my virtual directory on my domain...it opens and I get an error that I believe is because it can't find and records or tasks
When i look in the folder that was published to I find this:
[folder] AppData
[folder] bin this has a TeamTask.Service.ddl and TeamTask.Service.pdb
[file] Global.asax
[file] web.config
No folder for Model.

I'm finishing up my first web service. It stores data on a dataset that I later need to check up on, so I need to keep that information around. I've already enabled the session in the web service's method "EnableSession = true" [WebMethod(Description = "Receives status requests, as well as status udpates.", EnableSession = true)]
If I debug the web service everything works but if I try to use the application that sends the requests to the web service while it is published, the session keeps restarting again and again and again.

A customer reported that our asmx web service is continually increasing in memory (mem usage as well as private bytes). We are able to reproduce the problem in our lab with Windows 2003 Server SP2 (fully patched) on some of the machines. The customer is using Windows 2008.
We created a Hello World web service targeting the 2.0 framework built under VS2005 SP1 and a test client that continues to call it. The memory increases steadily - approximately 40K per client request. If the test app is paused, the memory remains the same. When it is closed, the memory drops. Explicit calling of GC.Collect does not drop the memory.
We have run the memory profiler on the service and the leak is all native memory. We have uninstalled/re-installed the Framework on one of the machines but no difference. To our knowledge all of the security and IIS settings are not modified. We have compared app pool, default web site and virtual directory properties to machines that have no problem and they are identical.

Is it possible to run a web service as a particular user/service account in the same way a Windows service can?I have a service account used for connecting to the DB and want to run the webservice under this account as the users using the webservice won't have DB access.The way I see to do it is to include the Impersonate option in the Web.config file, but is there any better way to do this?

My WCF Client calls my WCF Service which then calls ASMX Web Service. The problem is i have configured my wcf client and wcf service to windows credentials type but when wcf service calls asmx service the user credentials (default windowsidentity) is not passed to asmx service.
In WCF Service i am able to get user identity by using : Thread.CurrentPrincipal.Identity.Name;
WCF Service - i have disabled anonymous access and enabled windows authentication. ASMX Web Service - i have disabled anonymous access and enabled windows authentication.
