Web Service Using Old Proxy Settings?
Jun 30, 2009
Web Service A - Called directly by Win32 App, and various other web applications
Web Service B - Called directly by same Win32 App and a different set of other Web Applications
I'm working on adding a reference to B into A, so that we can use the functionality B provides without rewriting/reintegrating that code manually into A. I have a develop copy of A on my PC that I'm working with, and am calling a test copy of B on a remote server (the test server is accessed over the internet at our hosting provider)I believe to have my code ready for testing, but every time I go to test it on my local copy, I get the following error.No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 10.1.X.XX:8080
at System.Net.Sockets.Socket.DoConnect(EndPoint endPointSnapshot, SocketAddress socketAddress)
at System.Net.Sockets.Socket.InternalConnect(EndPoint remoteEP)
[code]....
It fails on the call to oZip.GetCities() with the above error. The IP in the error message does not in any way indicate it's made it out of our local network, it's a 10.* private IP, whereas the test server has a valid live publicly accessible IP.

I am trying to consume a web service using VS2008.
The code below works in VS2005 but not VS2008 I, suspecting it's to do with WCF. Please can someone help me to solve the puzzle?[code]...

I am working on a .NET Windows Service where I am trying to store settings that will be used when the service is started and while it is running. I have searched through posts on SO and found that using the Settings in the properties of the project is great for use with console and winforms applications. However, Google and SO are silent when it pertains to storing these settings with a windows service.

I was wondering if it is possible to change the Proxy settings("Automatically Detect Settings") in IE without making the change to the registry. I wasn't sure if the Hive is similar in all operating systems, So I figured there has to be an API to make the change, also without having the restart the IE or the computer for that matter.

I am using Watin mostly to automate thing I do by hand. Sometimes, I need to change proxy. To do this, I have to set up IE to use a local proxy all the time (listens locally and forwards to a remote porxy), and then by hand change the settings of that program each time I need to use another proxy.
This is not an elegant solution! It may work, but it is not nice.
So, my question is, how do I change programmatically IE settings while using Watin? I code in VB.NET.

This is a continuation of this thread:[URL]..However, I feel that the problem have changed into something else now, so I started a new thread.
I want to edit the registry key under:
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionInternet SettingsConnections
to set the LAN-settings for Internet explorer. There are four different settings that can be turned on or off here. I want to know how to edit the registry key to manipulate each one of those.I found this thread, where they talk about it:[URL]..In post #17 it's explained how it works. But I don't understand it. He talks about a bit-mask consisting of bit5-8 in the key, and what bits correspond to what setting. I tried this out to the best of my understanding, but it didn't work at all. The settings didn't change according to what he said there. Is there someone here that is familiar with this and can explain it better, and why it won't work for me?
[Code]...
But neither of these two approaches work for me. So how should I go about this really?

I have a code that will change the proxy IP settings in the Registry. This works perfectly, however the second time I try to change it, the web browser does not use it - it uses the first one I changed to. For example..I start up the program. I enter 0.0.0.0 as the IP, and it changes to 0.0.0.0, which has been confirmed. A few minutes later, I enter 1.1.1.1 as the IP, but it still uses 0.0.0.0.

I am writing a program to automatically switch my proxy address based on the network I am connected to.
I have so far got everything to work except the part that I have highlighted below.
Is there any way to change the automatic configuration script and the automatically detect settings in code?
The solution can be either P/Invoke registry editing. I just need something that works.

I need to add functionality to my web service calls so object translation and automatic retries are done and abstracted away.I would usually override the base class to add the extra functionality, but as the proxy methods aren't over-ridable I can't keep the method names the same. The only other option I can think of to do it this way is to use the 'Shadows' keyword to achieve what I want.What other methods do people use to add functionality to their web service proxy classes without modifying the generated classes?

When I add a service reference to my VB.Net project all of the properties of type DateTime get changed to type Date. The project is ASP.Net using framework 4.0. The web service being referenced is C# framework 4.0. How can I keep this from happening?

I have a WCF Service, I won't waste anyone's time with copy/pasting a basic implementation here, just imagine it as being the standard "Echo" example you see scattered around MSDN. Let's say I host the Service Library using IIS / a web app. Let's also say I publish the website to varying environments, local, shared dev server, varying test servers, and of course varying live environments. We'll also assume that the WCF gods smiled down upon us and the deployments went without a hitch.
Now I want to write an app (lets say WPF app for some clarity). When the app starts, I want a drop down listing all the available environments. I don't mind hard-coding or supplying (by means of a config file) those environments, but kudos points for linking any articles showing LAN discovery of deployed WCF services?
When the user has selected their chosen environment, I want the app to be able to call a method on the service (in the correct environment). Now I could do this with a big select case/if statement, instantiating the appropriate proxy class for the environment selected, calling out using the proxy class, etc. I could even pass the class around from method to method as an object and then use select case/if statements alongside TryCast/DirectCast to ascertain which environment the provided proxy class belongs to.
I'm bordering on the idea of selecting an environment (none in particular, just one of them) and on the assumption that all deployments/environments have identical code, instantiate the proxy client with the endpoint details of my chosen environment. I lose a form of type safety, but is that ok? Is that the done way?

I have a WCF Service exposing a single contract and operation:
<ServiceContract(Namespace:="ImageSystem")> _
Public Interface IUploadService
<OperationContract()> _
[Code].....
This subsequently leads to stream casting issues, because the generated function allows me to pass a memory stream as an input (which works correctly when passed through to the service), but instead of passing me back a new stream for the response, it attempts to cast the MessageBodyStream received from the service into my memory stream.
This is, in some ways similar to other posts but as you can see, there are no enums involved in my contracts - presence of Enums caused strange proxy class generation is marked as the answer in the similar post.
Is there anywhere I configure the proxy behaviour to use the contracts I've specified? Clearly I'm within a dev/test environment currently, but when this eventually goes to production it will be memory and file streams passed to the service, and the returned stream can be in any format to be honest, I intend to treat it as the abstract stream class. The only way round this I can see right now is to change my in stream to be the same as the anticipated out stream, but surely there is a better way?

I have a VB.NET solution built in Visual Studio 2010. It consists of a class project, a service, and a setup project. I have successfully created a setup, and run the setup from the "Release" directory of the setup project (outside of Visual Studio). It installed the service (on the same machine as where the project is), and the service seems to be running fine. The service executable is installed in a directory under c:program files (x86) along with some DLL's it is dependent of. The service (actually the class project I mentioned above) uses some settings from My.Settings. As far as I know these settings are stored in a app.config file in the project directory, as well as in a settings.settings file in the My Project directory under the project directory.
Neither of these files are installed by the installer. But the service can only run if it can read the settings. So where does my service get these settings from? To check if it still reads the settings from the VS project directory, I have temporarily renamed that directory, but that didn't affect the correct operation of the service.

If you edit a service in Windows 7 and go to the Log On Tab, there is an option to "Allow service to interact with desktop". I'm trying to ensure that it is set for a certain service using VB.NET.
Note: Doing this during the install of a program is not an option. It has to be done at run time.

I've written a windows service in VB.NET 2.0 and the service needs to know a few file paths and other settings when it starts in order to be able to do what its supposed to do. These are settings that users of my service need to be able to configure themselves so I cant hard code them in.At the moment I just have the service look for a file named Config.INI in the same directory that it is being run from and if this file exists it attempts to read the settings in from there... this works perfectly, but it just feels a bit clunky and old. If it was a normal windows app I would store the settings in an XML file in the user's application data folder or something but as this is a Service then thats not possible as it is not run by any one user (well technically it is, the Local System account). I then thought about using the registry but I seem to recall people saying that you should avoid storing settings in the registry if you can really, especially with the new security in Vista and Server 2008.

I have a solution with two applications in it. One is a windows form application that I want to use to set and manage a windows SERVICE application app settings.
For example. The form has the database connection string on it, when updated. The windows service application settings are updated.. I can get it to work for the windows application, but I need to jump boundries to the other application( Windows Service) and update the app settings there.

I'm making a application to use in college to retrieve my calendar and other things in VB.NET. But my college uses a proxy so when I connect my laptop I need to change the internet settings in my web browser to view web pages. how I would send requests via a proxy server in VB.NET? Or is there a piece of software that I can download which tunnels all connections or is there a setting in win7 does this?

I get the error mentioned when printing to a network printer.The error does not occur when run under XP/Win2003, in a WinForm app or when a local printer is used.The error does only occur when run as a Windows Service under Vista/Win7/Win2008 and printing to a network printer.The Windows service runs under a network user that has access to the network printer. Before I print I check if the printername (including network path) is ok by looping through the available printers.

i have a Windows service that is hosting a WCF service through net.tcp and this is working great. I have also created a WCF service application. I am trying to add the net.tcp service reference to the service application. Then I add it to the GAC that goes ok but if I try to RegAsm the WCF service application to allow it to be called from Server.CreateObject I get the error:
Warning: Type library exporter encountered a type that derives from a
generic class and is not marked as
[ClassInterface(ClassInterfaceType.None)]. Class interfaces cannot be
exposed for such types. Consider marking the type with
[ClassInterface(ClassInterfaceType.None)] and exposing an explicit
interface as the default interface to COM using the
ComDefaultInterface attribute.
It does not work. I have tried to call it through a class library but this does not work either as the end point is not set correctly.

The company has been using Visual Studio 2008 and .NET Framework 2.0 for approximately 2 years. During that time we released several versions (4.x.x) of our program to the public and were able to preserve the user's settings using My.Settings.Upgrade.During the past development cycle we upgraded the program to Visual Studio 2010 and .NET Framework 4.0 and changed the version to 5.x.x. Now, when a user upgrades from 4.x.x to 5.x.x they lose all of their settings.However, in all upgrades after that point (ie 5.0 to 5.1) all the user's settings are once again preserved.I checked C:Documents and Settings<USER_NAME>Local SettingsApplication DataCompanyName and it contains two directories:
ApplicationName_Url_aaa ApplicationName_Url_bbb
where aaa and bbb are 32 character strings. All of the user.config files for the 4.x.x releases can be found in the ApplicationName_ Url_aaa directory. All of the user.config files for the 5.x.x releases can be found in the ApplicationName_Url_bbb directory.Based on this information it seems like something changed when we converted our program to VS2010 and Framework4 that is now causing a different 32 character string to be generated. However, we have been unable to track it down.

I just wondered if you can or can't save arrays using the settings system object. There seems to be no way of entering it at designtime. It seems implied you cannot create new user settings.subobjects at runtime. I'm looking to find the easiest way to save a populated array of PictureBox's. If the only way is a self/custom made/managed .ini file then I need to know so i can start on that but I was hoping to use some of all this phaff in the new frameworks usefully.

I am rewritting my application to conform to ms standards. We used to save all settings to registry for user settings, servername, size and locations.so we are now saving them into My.Settings app.config the only problem is that each time there is an update clickonce will isntall the newupdate but now all settings are loist and user has to save everything all over again..
I am trying to follow the book here but it seems i keep getting stuck somewhere. registry has worked fine for years but i understand we must move on, but if stuff like this happens then i just wasted a long time converting all code to conform for it to not work..

1. I can't find the file which reflects changes to user settings. This might be because I just can't find it (I can see a bunch of user.config files but they are all empty - weird!), or...
2. I'm not actually saving them when I think I am.
Regarding 2. - do I need to invoke
Is this all I need? And if so, why are my user.configs empty?
