Java - Using Certificates In A Client-application Consuming A Web Service
Sep 16, 2010
I am implementing a VB.NET desktop application which consumes a web service.
The web service implemented in Java and I currently using Tomcat on my localhost to host the web service.
The web service requires secure communication with the client and so I have followed instructions that outlined how to use Java's keytool.exe to create two .jks keystores (one for the client and one for the server) and then create two .cer certificates (one for the client and one for the server)
I have placed the keystores and certificates generate into the directory where the web service is expecting them (according to the instructions)
I have installed the certificates into TrustedPeople and have attempted to use the certificate by setting the ClientCredentials.ClientCertificates property like this:
myServiceProxy.ClientCredentials.ClientCertificate.SetCertificate(storeLocation.CurrentUser, StoreName.TrustedPeople, X509FindType.FindByIssuerName, "name")
I keep getting the following error message when I try to call any method:
An error was discovered processing the <wsse:Security> header
My problem is that I don't know how to use this in the VB.NET client application that is consuming the web service. I could be doing this completely wrong.

Wrote a 'webservice' with Netbeans wizard, runs on glassfish. I added a reference using the wsdl to my .NET client, VB if it makes any difference.The issue is a SoapHeaderException.
System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHeaderException: com/mysql/jdbc/Connection
at System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol.ReadResponse(
SoapClientMessage message, WebResponse response, Stream responseStream,
Boolean asyncCall)
[code]....
I've tried writing the string in a soap envelope, but still receive the same message. So passing a string is kaputt, as it should be; why would the WS know to parse a string, and simply instantiating and calling the method from the object as if it were local isn't working the way I think it does.

I'm building a web service client using vb .net. The web service is secured with ssl, basic authentication and also requires client certificates. So I created a web reference in Visual Studio and provided the credentials:
Dim cred As New System.Net.NetworkCredential("usr", "passwd")
Dim proxy As New SimpleFromLocal.simple
proxy.Credentials = cred
Console.WriteLine(proxy.helloWorld())
This works as expected, as long as I turn off mutual authentication on the server side.I added a client certificate like this:
Dim cert As X509Certificate = X509Certificate.CreateFromCertFile(certFile)proxy.ClientCertificates.Add(cert)
The certificate is loaded, but the web service call fails. I could post the exception, but it is in german, which is an issue on its own. It basically says: Authentication failed, because the remote site closed the connection.I tried debugging the ssl handshake on the server side and it looks like the client certificate is not transmitted.So what am I missing here? Is it required to install the client certificate on the local machine?Edit: The error thrown:

Here's the situation. I'm a Java developer. Another developer in our company wrote a web service for our clients. They wrote the service in Java. They also wrote a demo for creating a client to consume the web service in Java and it works just fine. I've been tasked with creating a web services client in VB.NET to do the same thing. It hasn't been going smoothly. The problem is that the web service requires that you send the username and password in the SOAP header and I can't figure out how to do that in Vb.NET. I looked at the following pages:

I have a webservice being consumed in the WinForm application. I generated a web service wrapper and invoked a web service method asynchronously. I get following exception in my result completed event handler (the event is raised from within the web service wrapper class).
System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: An exception occurred during the operation, making the result invalid. Check InnerException for exception details.

We have a web app that contains web methods. I want to invoke one of those methods from a console app. I am new at this but I wrote a console app, added a service reference and tried to code invoking it. If my web method is called "Transmit", I expected to see Transmit in the namespace I specified but instead I see "TransmitRequest", "TranmsitRequestBody", "TransmitResponse" and "TransmitResponseBody".What are these things?Have I done something wrong?How do I invoke the web method in the web app from the console app?

I have a WCF Service (with installer) that I have built and installed in Windows Services. Opened up Admin Tools, Services, and started the service without a problem. So now I'm beginning a new project (a simple Windows forms app). I want to consume my new WCF, but have no idea how. I can't seem to add a reference / add a service reference to it.

I have an interesting issue that a client reported It turns out that the desktop application they are using is changing the times returned by the web service to their local time so it looks like the data is off. We're in UTC-5 while they're in UTC-8 so 8:00 AM is returned to the GUI as 5:00 AM which is causing confusion. I've done this riddiculousness to get around it for now:
Code:
Dim intOffset As Integer = TimeZone.CurrentTimeZone.GetUtcOffset(DateTime.Now).Hours
'Substract 1 if we're in daylight savings mode

I am creating an XML web service that passes an array of custom types. In my consuming code I am referencing the code as a web reference which I have given the namespace MYWS. Now in code I am trying to assign the results of my web service call to an array of my type like so..[code]When I do this the complier complains, saying: "Value of 1 dimensional array of my.namespace.MyClass cannot be converted to 1 dimensional array of my. namespace. MYWS.MyClass because my.namespace.MYSW.MyClass is not derived from my.namespace.MyClass"Now I understand the message, the thing is they are the same class. The class is declared in my calling code by the web service references a dll from that project. How do I tell the compiler that these are the same type?

I'm currently working on a VB. Net web service calling another web service running in the mainframe. I was provided with the WSDL file and I generated a proxy class using wsdl.exe. Upon attempting to invoke the method of the mainframe web service using the proxy class, I encountered an exception saying "Conversion from SOAP failed" coming from a line of code in the generated proxy class.

Here is my issue/question. I am relatively new to VB.Net programming, and I have been assigned the task of creating an application that will go out to a Secure web site and download a file. My first issue is it best to do this using a Windows form, ASP.Net or what. My second and main question is how do I authenticated to the secure web site in .net code?
Upon connecting to the secure web site it asks me for a certificate, which at the moment I have to manually present, however we would like to automate this. Then after it authenticates I have to go a few more pages in before i get to the file that needs to be downloaded.Although this file changes daily it has the same key tag so I can hardcode that into the download application. I just need to figure out how to programically authenticate to the site with .Net

I am creating a simple XML web service and have run into something I can't quite explain.My web service class has the following structure :
Imports System.Web.Services
Imports System.Web.Services.Protocols
Imports System.ComponentModel
[code]....
Invoking my method using the built in VS web service test harness works fine. I created another project, in another solution, to test consuming the web service. I added a web reference to my project and set it so I could reference my web service by using "localWS". Then in the page load event of my consuming class I tried to instantiate an object of my web service:
Dim srv As New localWS.MyWS
But there was no "MyWS" type found. There is however a localWS.MyWSSoapClient class. When I use it I can invoke my web methods. My question is, why can't I create a straight up version of MyWS class? In the tutorials I'v read, and in the book I have, example consuming classes for .NET XML web services can instantiate objects of the web service class they are consuming. As a further test I added a new web form to my web service project and from there I was able to instantiate a MyWS class.

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.

We had plan to create a three tiered architecture database application, where the middle tier will be implemented using Web Service. We're going to use Linux for the server, so I think for the web service to be able to be implemented, we only had PHP/Java left. Is this right?
The constraint is, we're going to use VB.NET for the client application.We already had a two tiered VB.NET application from our last successfull database application. It use a lot of DataSet for the result of SQL execution. Now, what I had in mind, is a simple approach of converting all procedure that return a DataSet Object, to be a WebService method. But, because of this thinking, I don't think we can do it in Java/PHP. That is, we'll be enforce to use a ASP.NET approach. Is this correct? I assume my answer from this article Consuming a DataSet from an XML Web Service (ADO.NET)

I am in the process of developing a messaging framework for a windows application that sends messages to a java application. To be precise when the win app wants to send a message it simply drops the message in a common database table which will be picked up by the java app. The windows application is deployed across 10 application servers (10 instances) over citrix for load balancing.Each instance of the application is capable of sending a message to the java application and each of these messages should have a unique id. From my end I need to make sure every message generated has to carry a unique id so that they can be identified when necessary. All the messages can be cleared every day or two.i am not quite sure about a best method of achieving this. Initially I wanted to create a static method that serves the next available id (incrementing the last id by 1). But this approach willn't guarantee unique number as the application starts only when at least one user is logged on. For e.g .On one server the app starts when a user logs in, he then sends a message and then the application stops when that user logs off. So when a next request for the app comes to that server a new instance will be started.

i have a WPF application that uses a service reference to a web service.Now i have a GUI component that tracks the progress of this...But i seem to have some sort of bug here, it only occurs on some machines and not often..I start a call with MethodNameAsync and display the progress bar until the matching Completed event occurs.
some times i call 3 different async methods in a row but only the two of them get their Completed event raised so the GUI will be locked and the application has to be restarted.After being totally frustrated a few weeks i found the event AppDomain.CurrentDomain.FirstChanceException, so i hooked up to it and started logging all FirstChanceExceptions..
[Code]...
Fix this temporary by not using async methods and instead using a thread that will call them one by one.. now this is not a elegant solution, i should be able to use the async methods...

This is a bit of unusual problem that I'm experiencing, but recently one of the users of a production application started reporting errors in the system. These were traced to a 503 Service Unavailable error when making a call to a web service used by the application.
Now here's the odd part, only the one user is affected by this issue. Other users of the application have not reported any errors. When the user logged on to a different machine that worked for another user, they still received the error.

I have a solution in VS 2010: a WCF Service Library project ("NotifyService") and two Windows Forms projects, one for a server ("NotifyServer")and one for a client ("NotifyClient"). My goal is to have a duplex WCF service that will notify any number of connected clients when the server pushes out a notification. The clients do not need to communicate to the server except to subscribe and unsubscribe from the server's updates. However I seem to be running into problems nailing down the InstanceContext.
Here's the code for the WCF service:
<ServiceContract(
CallbackContract:=GetType(INotifyCallback),
SessionMode:=SessionMode.Required)>
[Code].....
Since I'm setting everything up through code, there are no app.config files. The problem I'm having is that my Subscribe method is never called. When debugging, I get an error after stepping through that line (not an exception) that says "Unable to automatically step into the server. The debugger failed to stop in the server process." When I go back to my server form and click the button designed to raise an event on the callback clients, it steps into the NotifyService class but the _callbacks list is empty, meaning the Subscribe method either never ran, or it never ran on that instance.
I have fought with this for almost a week. This is nearly an identical copy, at least on the service-side, to what was described here, and I've compiled that and it works.
