wcf data service can work on iisexpress, but not in iis - wcf

I wrote a very simple WCF data service. But I find that can't work when I deploy on IIS7.5. It just only can work on IIS Express.
[System.ServiceModel.ServiceBehavior(IncludeExceptionDetailInFaults = true)]
public class WcfDataService : DataService<ConfigurationDataEntities>
{
// This method is called only once to initialize service-wide policies.
public static void InitializeService(DataServiceConfiguration config)
{
// TODO: set rules to indicate which entity sets and service operations are visible, updatable, etc.
// Examples:
config.UseVerboseErrors = true;
config.SetEntitySetAccessRule("*", EntitySetRights.AllRead);
// config.SetServiceOperationAccessRule("MyServiceOperation", ServiceOperationRights.All);
config.DataServiceBehavior.MaxProtocolVersion = DataServiceProtocolVersion.V3;
}
}
This is webconfig file

Anyone can help me?
WCF helps you:
See server logs for more details.
Configure tracing and see where the exception occurs. Since it's happening in the DbContext constructor, I assume there's something with database access. Check the account the application pool runs under and verify this account can access the database.

WCF Rest Service broken after server restart

I made a WCF Rest Service and attached it to IIS 7 on my server and it worked great. Suddenly, we had a hard drive failure and the guys who're supposed to manage the backups didn't back up anything, so we lost all our stuff on the server.
So I go about setting everything back up, and I put all the stuff on IIS. We have another WCF Rest Service that does a lot of stuff the one I made does, including a couple of the same methods for authentication and such. But now it seems that mine won't work. Our website works and our other web service works, but not this one, and I've no idea why? I set them up the exact same and I don't think I changed anything when I did it initially.
The help reference pages work, but when calling the method, I get
"The server encountered an error processing the request. Please see the service help page for constructing valid requests to the service."
I'm using the same methods as before, calling them with the same arguments, this happens for every method, regardless of GET or POST. I've used a REST extension thing in chrome to call it and the mobile app that I usually use to call it, as well as the browser and they all come up with the same error.
Here's the web.config file for it (I've tried adding a few things found on stackoverflow to get to the problem, but it's not done anything, really).

Looking at the stack trace from your log, I think you are having issues parsing a GUID in MobileAssessorAPIService.GetProjectData method
at System.Guid.TryParseGuidWithNoStyle(String guidString, GuidResult&amp; result)
at System.Guid.TryParseGuid(String g, GuidStyles flags, GuidResult&amp; result)
at System.Guid..ctor(String g)
at OHS.MobileAssessor.Services.MobileAssessorAPIService.GetProjectData(String token)
I would recommend that you put a break point in this method and attach a debugger to your REST service.
Based on the code you posted, the suspected line is
MobileAssessorAuthenticationResults authResult = ValidateToken(new Guid(token));
if you are not able to remotely debug this, I would recommend that you add logging just before this line to log the value of token. something like
logger.Log("paramater token = " + token);
Alternately, use wireshark to check the value of the token. once you extract the value of that guid, validate it online at http://guid.us/Test/GUID

I have similiar issue with WCF. The problem was my appPool account doesn't have rights for generated assemblies by IIS which he use for "shadow copy".
I track it down by using procmon http://technet.microsoft.com/cs-cz/sysinternals/bb896645.aspx with filtering to IIS process name "w3wp.exe" and status to "access denied". Then call service again and check procmon output which files have this issue.
I have access deniend at c:\windows\temp\Microsoft.Generated.dll so I have remove it, call again and new one was generated and all works.
Another option is set "stronger" user identntiy to appPool like LocalService ( appPool -> advanced settings -> Indetitiy -> Predefined account -> Local service )
But solution with procmon is more fun :-)
There are many reasons why you can get this error. The times I have encountered it are when the wcf method is secured to a specific AD role:
Setting the ClientCredentials on the web service client. This can be finicky and doing certain things to the client connection can cause you to lose the credentials.
setting the InnerChannel.OperationTimeout before setting the ClientCredentials will wipe out the ClientCredentials (wierd I know, but I tested it many times).
I believe this may be an issue where the service attempts to use event log to record information. The event log doesn't exist, the Application Pool Identity pseudo-user does not have permission to create an event log. So the suggestions to use a high privileged account side step the issue by allowing it to be created. It may be possible to simply swap the user to a high account run and then switch back to regular.
Alternatively using powershell you can directly create the event log if you know what needs to be created (note it is usually very easy to view the source of any .NET application or dll to locate const string names to the usage)

Invalid value for key 'attachdbfilename'. setting up a Twitter login for website

Hi I am using Visual studio ultimate 2012 VB.NET
I am trying to set up a new part of my website using Visual studio web forms. I want users to be able to login using there Twitter id. So I created my Twitter login app and inserted my 2 keys "Consumer key" & "Consumer secret" key in to my "AuthConfig.vb" file
I then setup my database using Visual studios "Connect to Database" It connected to my database successfully. I know this because after a message popped up telling me "connection was successful". I was then able on to use visual studio to setup a table on my database.
I confirmed the table was created by logging in to my GoDaddy server and checking the database table was showing, and it was. (So this confirms VS can connect to database.
So this is what happens,
I go to my new page I just created in VS which is this one
http://mastersworldofcomputing.com/basic-learning/Default.aspx
I then click on "Log in" which takes me to this page below.
http://mastersworldofcomputing.com/basic-learning/Account/Login.aspx
I then click on the "Twitter button" we just created (which should let me log in with Twitter id)
I am then taken to the Twitter login page, so I put username and password in and click on "Sign in".
I then get a flash screen come up telling me it is redirecting me to my page but after a couple of seconds it takes me to an error page. Showing info below.

Is there anyone who can put me on the right track here so I can get past this. I must of read a hundred threads and got no where. If there is some other info that might be of use let me know
Thanks for reading.

Define a different default ServiceHostFactory foreach workflow

Is it possible to define a standard ServiceHostFactory foreach 'workflow' service (xamlx)
Our customers can make there own workflows (xamlx) using a custom workflow designer. We force the workflowservices into having a WS2007FederationHttpBinding with TransportSecurity. We turn of ServiceMetadataBehavior of for the WorkflowService and finally add a DataContractResolver that does some type resolving.
The ServiceHostFactory
public class MyServiceHostFactory : WorkflowServiceHostFactory
{
protected override WorkflowServiceHost CreateWorkflowServiceHost(
System.ServiceModel.Activities.WorkflowService service,
Uri[] baseAddresses)
{
WorkflowServiceHost host = base.CreateWorkflowServiceHost(service, baseAddresses);
foreach (Uri adres in baseAddresses)
{
if (adres.Scheme == "https")
{
WorkflowCreationEndpoint endpoint = new WorkflowCreationEndpoint(
new WS2007FederationHttpBinding("IWorkflowService_ws2007FederationHttpBinding"),
new EndpointAddress(adres));
host.AddServiceEndpoint(endpoint);
PageflowDataContractResolver.AttachDataContractResolver(endpoint);
}
}
var metadataBehavior = host.Description.Behaviors.Find<ServiceMetadataBehavior>();
metadataBehavior.HttpGetEnabled = false;
host.WorkflowExtensions.Add(new WorkflowInstanceTracking());
return host;
}
public override ServiceHostBase CreateServiceHost(string constructorString, Uri[] baseAddresses)
{
return base.CreateServiceHost(constructorString, baseAddresses);
}
protected override WorkflowServiceHost CreateWorkflowServiceHost(System.Activities.Activity activity, Uri[] baseAddresses)
{
return base.CreateWorkflowServiceHost(activity, baseAddresses);
}
}
The workflows exist in a database as Ron Jacob wrote in this blog. 'Consultants' and/or end users can create workflows using a custom tool, but each time they do they must not forget to add a serviceActivation element in the web.config which is not wanted.
<system.serviceModel>
<serviceHostingEnvironment multipleSiteBindingsEnabled="false">
<baseAddressPrefixFilters>
<add prefix="http://localhost" />
</baseAddressPrefixFilters>
<serviceActivations>
<add relativeAddress="~/Workflows/test.xamlx" service="Workflows/test.xamlx" factory="Foo.Bar.MyServiceHostFactory" />
</serviceActivations>
</serviceHostingEnvironment>
<protocolMapping>
<add scheme="https" binding="ws2007FederationHttpBinding" />
</protocolMapping>
..
I think it would be correct to rephrase your question as:
Is there a way to change the default WorkflowServiceHostFactory for a web application so that config-less xamlx activation will use my WSHF instead.
If I have understood your question correctly then I don't think there is a way to do this. I had a quick look to see if there is a place you can override it but couldn't see any. Another way to achieve this is to modify the web.config as necessary when a user uploads a new workflow. Editing the web.config in-flight should result in any currently running pulses of execution being serviced by the existing AppDomain while a new AppDomain is created to service new requests to the web application. Thus no loss of workflow processing should occur. This of course would require some testing and verification.
UPDATE
It looks like this might be possible. If you add the following to your web.config (which is from the default config for workflow activation).
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration>
<configSections>
<sectionGroup name="system.xaml.hosting"
type="System.Xaml.Hosting.Configuration.XamlHostingSectionGroup, System.Xaml.Hosting, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35">
<section name="httpHandlers"
type="System.Xaml.Hosting.Configuration.XamlHostingSection, System.Xaml.Hosting, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35" />
</sectionGroup>
</configSections>
<system.xaml.hosting>
<httpHandlers>
<add xamlRootElementType="System.ServiceModel.Activities.WorkflowService, System.ServiceModel.Activities, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35"
httpHandlerType="System.ServiceModel.Activities.Activation.ServiceModelActivitiesActivationHandlerAsync, System.ServiceModel.Activation, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35" />
<add xamlRootElementType="System.Activities.Activity, System.Activities, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35"
httpHandlerType="System.ServiceModel.Activities.Activation.ServiceModelActivitiesActivationHandlerAsync, System.ServiceModel.Activation, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35" />
</httpHandlers>
</system.xaml.hosting>
</configuration>
The class ServiceModelActivitiesActivationHandlerAsync that this default config uses is implemented as follows:
internal class ServiceModelActivitiesActivationHandlerAsync : ServiceHttpHandlerFactory, IServiceModelActivationHandler
{
// Methods
public ServiceHostFactoryBase GetFactory()
{
return new WorkflowServiceHostFactory();
}
}
Then instead of using the ServiceModelActivitiesActivationHandlerAsync, provide an implementation yourself which instantiates your own WorkflowServiceHostFactory in the GetFactory method. Update the web.config above to point to your new httpHandlerType and you should be done.
I haven't tested this at all. It's possible IIS will not like the web.config overriding the system.xaml.hosting section.

After upgrading to .Net 4.0, I'm getting the exception "Could not load file or assembly 'System.Windows, Version=2.0.5.0'"

We recently upgraded our web app from 3.5 to 4.0. Now after I login and load a page with Microsoft ScriptManager on it, I get:
Could not load file or assembly 'System.Windows, Version=2.0.5.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=7cec85d7bea7798e' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
It only happens the first time, reload the page and everything works.
UPDATE: We have all Silverlight v4 projects.I found the System.Windows.dll in the C:\Program Files\Reference Assemblies\Microsoft\Framework\Silverlight\v4.0 directory. Why would it look for version 2.0?
Here's the entire exception (edited and removed folder paths)

See the same problem here and Microsoft Feedback/Bug report
Edit: I'm running VS 2010, XP with IIS 5.0 (I miss Win 7 at work every day :-)). We have the web app running under the local IIS instance, not Cassini. We deployed it to a test server and I did not see the exception. After I installed the C:\Program Files\Reference Assemblies\Microsoft\Framework\Silverlight\v4.0\System.windows.dll to the GAC and then removed it and haven't seen the same exception, though my colleague hasn't done this and still sees it occasionally. I think it only happens when the app is restarted (which happens every time we rebuild the app when developing locally).
Sounds like one of the projects in your solution is referencing the v2 system assemblies. Make sure that all of your projects and application pools are set to use 4.0. You can set this in the project properties in Visual Studio.
(Note that you'll have to rebuild your solution with the new settings if you haven't already).
I have been having the same issues for a long time, but just found some old Silverlight Assemblies in my bin folder, removed those and voila.. error gone
Adding reference to AjaxControlToolkit.dll and adding the header
<%# Register Assembly="AjaxControlToolkit" Namespace="AjaxControlToolkit" TagPrefix="asp" %>
to the aspx that contains the script manager solved the problem for me.
