SoapException

[Nelson P. Varghese]

I am getting the following exception when trying to access a web service.

Client : Windows XP SP2 (Via Proxy)

An unhandled exception of type 'System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException'
occurred in system.web.services.dll

Additional information: Server was unable to process request. --> Cannot use
a leading .. to exit above the top directory.

Hi Nelson,

This one sounds like it is right. Apparently there is an attempt on the
part of the code in the service being called to access a directory that is
not under the VROOT for the service, and no other security
attribution/policy has been put in place to allow this. In short, ASP.net
security rules that make a web-initiated call not allowed to go outside of
its sandbox is doing the right thing.

I hope this helps
