Winform cannot connect to webservice via CAS policy

Dan

Hi

I have a dotnet application that communicates with a web service running
locally on my machine. It connects fine and works ok when I run the
application from the c: drive. Am having problems running it from my ftp
location, so

ftp://localhost/setup.exe

In the Runtime security policy I have created a new code group under my
machine entry, and made the membership conditions to use Strong name, and
assigned the public key from setup.exe to it. The permission set is set to
FullTrust.
The application now launces, but when accessing the web service I get the
following exception thrown:

************** Exception Text **************
System.Net.WebE xception: Unable to connect to the remote server --->
System.Net.Sock ets.SocketExcep tion: No connection could be made because the
target machine actively refused it
at System.Net.Sock ets.Socket.DoCo nnect(EndPoint endPointSnapsho t,
SocketAddress socketAddress)

--- End of inner exception stack trace ---
at System.Net.Http WebRequest.GetR equestStream()
at System.Web.Serv ices.Protocols. SoapHttpClientP rotocol.Invoke( String
methodName, Object[] parameters)
I've tried setting all the permission manually, but nothing work. and I've
tried the evaluate assembly util which tells me I've got things setup
correctly.

But the application works fine when not via the ftp!!! so I now the web
service is working ok.
The FTP on ISS is set to use annouymous access

Am using vs2005 on windows xp pro.

thanks for any help

ah! fixed it!

just incase anybody needs to know. I had the apppointing to the webservice
from localhost - which wouldn't work from running from the ftp location. I
switched it to my machine name and it worked! must be because running via
CAS it's know about or allow localhost connections.

Winform web-deployment (no touch)

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
