Error 403 when using Global.asax with VS 2005

Al Santino

Hello,

I've created a simple C# web services project using Visual Studio 2005. My
service compiles and runs correctly when called by remote clients.

I'm able to step through the service in the debugger unless I add a
Global.asax file. When I do that and then try to run the debugger I receive
error 403. If I remove the Global.asax file things work fine. The
Global.asax file is the one generated by VS 2005 - I don't try to add
anything to it and receive the errors.

I've been through the past threads and tried the suggestions from here:

and a variety of other sources. Nothing seems to work.

I'm running under a local Admin account on Windows XP Pro and service packs
are up to date. The project in on my computer (localhost). Can anyone point
out what I may be doing wrong?

Thanks.

1. The simplest solution of course, given that apparently you don't need
any global functions, is not to include a global.asax in your web service fileset.

2. Something else you can do is download sample code for web services,
and check for glaring differences in the sample's global.asax and yours.

Here's one :
http://www.codeproject.com/vb/net/xy...dispatcher.asp

3. When you open your global.asax in the VS IDE, do you see a squiggly
line under the "Application Language" line at the top of the code ?

If you do, when you right-click it, do you have an option
available to "move global.asax" into the project ?

What happens if you move it ? Does that help ?

4. Check the filename for the global.asax created by VS.
Is it Global.asax...or Global1.asax ?

1. The simplest solution of course, given that apparently you don't need
any global functions, is not to include a global.asax in your web service
fileset.

Actually I do need it - I plan to use the session related functions. I
wanted to begin, though, by adding the file using VS and then stepping
through it in the debugger to verify the order of events. As I mentioned in
my post, I can step through the program in the debugger before I add
Global.asax but not afterwards.

2. Something else you can do is download sample code for web services,

I'll do that. Again, I'm using the file VS generated with no changes.

3. When you open your global.asax in the VS IDE, do you see a squiggly
line under the "Application Language" line at the top of the code ?

No, it just highlights the "<%" and "%>" in yellow.

>
If you do, when you right-click it, do you have an option
available to "move global.asax" into the project ?

What happens if you move it ? Does that help ?

If I remove it I can then use the debugger again. I'm not sure where I
should move it.

4. Check the filename for the global.asax created by VS.
Is it Global.asax...or Global1.asax ?

It is "Global.asax".
Thanks again for your suggestions.

You can ignore my original post. I was clicking "run" when the Global.asax
file was displayed rather than the main file.

Sheesh.

Oops...
Sometimes it's the little things which get us.

Glad you caught it, though.
