XBAP Web Service Call

I've been attempting to get a WPF XBAP app to call a web service and return a simple message all day and cannot.

System.Security.SecurityException was unhandled
Message: Request for the permission of type 'System.Security.Permissions.EnvironmentPermission, mscorlib, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed.

It's the same problem, referenced these posts:

  • ConsoleApp - works!
  • WindowsApp - works!
  • WPF App - works!
  • XBAP App - fails!

Could someone enlighten me Project Here

Am I missing some simple property that would allow and F5 debug

Thanks,

Hello, in a partial trust environment, you can only access web services located at the XBAP¡¯s site of origin. But when debugging, VS won¡¯t consider to have the same site of origin as the web service it references. You¡¯ll need to add -debugSecurityZoneURL <URL> to the command line arguments to avoid this issue. For more information, please refer to http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb613597(VS.90).aspx.

I actually tried adding -debugSecurityZoneURL prior to asking for help and it did not work. It still does not work. The link to my project in the first post had this set but apparantly this is kept in the *.user file, which I deleted prior to zipping it.

So here's my steps to try and get this to work:

• From Solution Explorer, right-click and unload the XBAP project.
• From Solution Explorer again, right-click and edit the xbap.csproj.
• Edit the <StartArguments> node to look like this:
  • <StartArguments>-debug "$(MSBuildProjectDirectory)\bin\$(Configuration)\$(AssemblyName)$(ApplicationExtension)" -debugSecurityZoneURL "http://localhost:1106"</StartArguments>
• Save the change
• From Solution Explorer, right-click on the XBAP project and reload it.
• From Solution Explorer, right-click on the ClientService.asmx in the WebService project and View in Browser to get it to start up on port 1106.
• Finally, select the XBAP project from Solution Explorer and hit F5 to run it.

I still get the security error posted above. Does it work for you Are my steps incorrect

Thanks,

You are correct as I was using 1106 > 1024 so I went through and changed it to 924 and still received the same error.

Here's my steps below.

First I went into the WebService.csproj and changed the port from 1106 to 924:

<ProjectExtensions>

<VisualStudio>

<FlavorProperties GUID="{349c5851-65df-11da-9384-00065b846f21}">

<WebProjectProperties>

<UseIIS>False</UseIIS>

<AutoAssignPort>True</AutoAssignPort>

<DevelopmentServerPort>924</DevelopmentServerPort>

<DevelopmentServerVPath>/</DevelopmentServerVPath>

<IISUrl>

</IISUrl>

<NTLMAuthentication>False</NTLMAuthentication>

</WebProjectProperties>

</FlavorProperties>

</VisualStudio>

</ProjectExtensions>

I noticed that each project puts the port number all over the place (Ctrl+Shift+F on solution) - Settings.settings, Settings.Designer.cs, ClientService.disco, etc, etc.

I couldn't figure out how to update those ports #'s easily. I changed the value in the applications app.config but it still wanted to use the old 1106 port, so I removed and re-added the web service reference for each client project (Console, Windows, WPF, XBAP). That got rid of all references to 1106. I started up the WebService on port 924 and made sure that each client except the XBAP still functioned by F5, and they did.

Then I went into the XBAP.csproj and changed the StartArguments node to use port 924. I hit F5 and still got the same error.
