Code Access Permissions, ServicedCompone nts and Web Services

[Anthony Christianson]

Here is the Scenario:
I have a web service that performs processing on data.
I need to call this web service from an ASP page.
I created a ServicedCompone nt that has the WebService Proxy and provides a
COM Interface to the ASP code to make requests to the Web Service.

ASP Code:

dim objWsProxy, strReturn
set objWsProxy = Server.CreateOb ject("MyApp.WSP roxy")
strReturn = objWsProxy.GetH tml()

ServicedCompone nt Code:

[assembly: System.Security .AllowPartially TrustedCallers]
[ClassInterface( ClassInterfaceT ype.None),ProgI d("MyApp.WSProx y"),Guid("79 B14
4C6-4E1C-3793-9CBA-FC5DCBB6449E")]
[SecurityPermiss ion(SecurityAct ion.Assert,Flag s=SecurityPermi ssionFlag.Execu
tion)]
public class WSProxy{
private localhost.Servi ce1 _service;
public WSProxy(){
_service = new localhost.Servi ce1();
}

public string GetHtml()
{
return _serivice.GetHt ml();
}
}
Now, before the August 2003, Cumulative Patch for Internet Explorer 6
Service Pack 1 (822925). Everything worked fine and dandy. Afterwards, I
continually got, "Execution Permission could not be acquired"

So, I created a Code Access Policy for my ServicedCompone nt.
caspol -m -ag All_Code -strong -file MyApp.dll -noname -noversion
FullTrust -name "My Proxy Class"
caspol -af MyApp.dll

That didnt work. So I manually went into the .NET Configuration 1.1 Utility
and Created a code access permission for my Strong Named Component.

After restarting IIS, it worked. Then after a reboot, it stopped working.
Then after fiddling with policy again but actually changing nothing. It
started working again.
Then it stopped after an IIS Reset. I am completely lost on what is going
on any more. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
