C# - "remote Server Returned Error (403) Forbidden" With WCF Service In Https
Jun 2, 2010
I have a WCF Service that I have boiled down to next to nothing because of this error. It is driving me up the wall. Here's what I have now.
A very simple WCF service with one method that returns a string with the value, "test".
A very simple Web app that uses the service and puts the value of the string into a label.
A web server running IIS 6 on Win 2003 with a SSL certificate.
Other WCF services on the same server that work. I publish the WCF service to it's https location I run the web app in debug mode in VS and it works perfectly. I publish the web app to it's https location on the same server the WCF service resides under the same SSL certificate I get, "The remote server returned an error: (403) Forbidden" I have changed almost every setting in IIS as well as the WCF and Web apps to no avail. I have compared setting in the WCF services that work and everything is the same.
Below are the setting in the web.config for the WCF Service and the WEB app: It appears the problem has to do with the Web app but I am out of ideas.
using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq; using System.Web; using System.Web.UI; using System.Web.UI.WebControls; using ASPSnippets.SmsAPI;
[Code] ...
Also include AspSnippets.SmsAPI in solutionexplorer's Reference foldergot error at following line
//Single SMS SMS.SendSms(txtRecepientNumber.Text.Trim(), txtMessage.Text.Trim());the error is the web remote server returned error (403) forbidden
I am running this piece of code to get the source code (as string) of my webpage.
The problem is why this function returns 404 error?
Private Function getPageSource(ByVal URL As String) As String Dim webClient As New System.Net.WebClient() Dim strSource As String = webClient.DownloadString(URL) webClient.Dispose() Return strSource End Function
I have a simple Upload method that send the file to the FTP server, if the file name is already exist, i will overwrite the existing file in the server. This method is working fine.
[Code]....
I'm just wondering how would i be able to change the filename ( originalFileName+timeStamp) during the process of uploading to avoid overwriting of files? I did try changing the method property of WebRequestMethod to
[Code]....
But I'm getting an error
The remote server returned an error: (550) File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)
this is a bit of a strange one. have my front page of my intranet site and I am trying to pull an RSS feed from a subdirectory forum.
Root Default.aspx --->Forum --->Rssfeed.aspx
On my default.aspx I can pull RSS Feeds from the BBC or any other external website so my code is working fine but when I try and pull a RSS feed from my local server I get "The remote server returned an error: (401) Unaithorized".Now, if I go to the Forum directory within IIS and change the directory secutiry from "Integrated Windows Authentication" to "Enable anonymous access" the RSS comes through to the front page without any errors, however, the forum requires "Integrated Windows Authentication" to be enable to that my users can post on the forum. If I turn both on then Windows authentication is still ignored for my users when they visit the forum.I have hardcoded my credentials in to the Default.aspx.cs to see if that helps but I still get Unauthorized message.My code is here:
[Code]....
As you can see I have tried a couple of different ways to get the credentials to work, it just seems to ignore my credentials and I have full admin access to the server and when I visit the forum it picks up my username.
why I'm getting this error? I just re-created (not migrated) my app that was in ASP.NET 1.1 to ASP.NET 2.0. Whole app works perfectly. The only problem I'm getting with this piece of code for the Web Services. I'm running both versions at the same time side-by-side and it works fine in 1.1 and doesn't work in 2.0.
URLName = Context.Request.Url.Segments URLName0 = URLName(0) URLName1 = URLName(1) URLName2 = URLName(2) URLHost = Request.UserHostName URLStr = "http://" & URLHost & URLName0 & URLName1 & "SomePage.aspx?" & "SectionID=" & SectionID ' Create a 'WebRequest' object with the specified url Dim myWebRequest As WebRequest = CType(WebRequest.Create(URLStr), WebRequest) ' Send the 'WebRequest' and wait for response. Dim myWebResponse As WebResponse = CType(myWebRequest.GetResponse(), WebResponse)
Bam! Error! The remote server returned an error: (500) Internal Server Error.
In IIS we have a virtual directory (named as "Documents") with in application virtual directory (named as "Reference") that points to an shared folder.All the files with in the "Documents" folder are listed and opened by the user (by clicking on the file name) with in the application
"Reference" application runs under an application pool. This application pool is configured to run with an Active directory account. This AD account has been granted write and modify permissions on the shared folder that contains the html files.
When user tries to open any of the html file located with in the shared location from the application following error is thrown.
System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: (500) Internal Server Error
I tried to browse to the location manually and I can see the required files there.
These files where accessible from our application until yesterday. But we started encountering this error from today.
Is there any IIS settings that needs to be modified?
The remote server returned an error: (407) Proxy Authentication Required.I get it when I use the GetReponse() method in WebRequest Dim request As WebRequest = WebRequest.Create(getNextURL()) Dim httpResponse As HttpWebResponse = CType(request.GetResponse(), HttpWebResponse)
I want to call my WebService using HttpWebRequest, but I get Error:The remote server returned an error: (500) Internal Server Error. The webservice works fine through the following url: [URL]
When I'm accessing web service from jquery, I'm getting the 403 forbidden error.. I published and created in the virtual directory too. Wat's the cause of this error and how to rectify it? I've added the webservice in the same solution.. This is my following code..
using oAuth.net library for the Gmail Contacts API The request seems well-formed and I have stepped through the requests, and cannot discern anything wrong. Tried checking if the timestamp is an issue - it seems that was a common issue on the gmail forums, tried changing to various time-zones, still no luck.
An external user of a website (it's actually *his* website) is getting a 403 error when he tries to run. He is physically outside our office, but I can run it fine. I was told by our network engineer that it's probably a virtual directory security setting and I can change it in IIS. Does anyone know what he means? We are running IIS7.
when i am adding service reference the Following erro shows Up..where as the same works on the Other machine. The url when tested in Internet explorer works but only while adding shows the error. The request failed with HTTP status 403: Forbidden. The HTTP request was forbidden with client authentication scheme 'Anonymous'.
I am trying to deploy a wcf service. I have created a simple service, basically I have created a new wcf service and tried to deploy it however I get this error
The type 'WCF_Application.Service1', provided as the Service attribute value in the ServiceHost directive, or provided in the configuration element system.serviceModel/serviceHostingEnvironment/serviceActivations could not be found.

we have a situation where we need to host two certificates on the same server and because we can't have two different certificates on the same server running off the same port we have assigned one certificate run through another port, which is 4443.
So the URL to our web app is now....
[URL]
If I punch this into a web browser I can access it fine, however, if I create a web reference using this URL in Visual Studio (2005) it can create the web reference fine and it builds ok. But whenever I call a web method on this service instance I get a HTTP 404 page not found Exception.
Is there any properties I need to set on the web service object to get this to work? I'm confused as to why it's not working.
when I call the web service from the windows service. But I can visit this web service through IE and I also wrote another console application to call the web service and it works fine, too.
The exception infomation is below:
A socket operation was attempted to an unreachable network 127.0.0.1:8888
I try many methods, like turn off the firewall and anti-virus software, set the web services proxy property to null. but still cannot solve this issue.
I have an Asp.net 3.5 xml web service that I created using the file new website within Visual Studio 2008. I can install and run the web service on a remote server using a web setup project after adding the necessary entries to the web.config file. The problem currently is that the xml web service needs to be configured to use a domain name and not a server name. My coworker has not been able to configure the virtual directory to use a domain name and work successfully. The web service returns a site under construction error.
I am maintaining a web site project in VS2005 and have to call a new web service on a remote server. I've done add web reference, and created the .wsdl and .discomap files in the app_webReference folder. When I try to create a object representing the web service in the code ( wsnamespace.serviceName ws = new wsnamespce.serviceName(); ) the code wouldn't compile.
The web site project is already calling other web services. When I right click on the type representing the web service and "go to definition" it takes me to a proxy class (derived from of course SoapHttpClientProtocol) in the metadata. I think this is what's missing for the new web service i'm trying to call. Have I missed any steps?
