I'm having some difficulty connecting to an ADAM instance from my Commerce Server 2007 ASP .NET solution, and I believe it relates to my config file somehow. The short version is that I can connect to ADAM through ADAM-ADSIEdit with my current username/password, but when I put this in my web.config i get "Parser Error Message: Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password."
<connectionStrings>
<add name="LDAPConnection" connectionString="LDAP://<domain/>:389/<Partition DN>" />
</connectionStrings>
<membership defaultProvider="MembershipADAMProvider">
<providers>
<add name="MembershipADAMProvider"
type="System.Web.Security.ActiveDirectoryMembershipProvider, System.Web, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a"
connectionStringName="LDAPConnection"
connectionProtection="None"
connectionUsername="<domain>\<username>"
connectionPassword="<password>"/>
</providers>
</membership>
I've tried a bunch of things to fix this and haven't come up with any kind of reasonable solution. I started with just the connection String and no username or password. I got an error saying that I could not make a secure connection. that's when I added the connectionProtection="None" line. Then it said I could not use default credentials without a secure connection, so I added the Username and Password fields. When I created the ADAM instance, I used the current Windows login credentials. I've tried to use my windows login credentials here in web.config, and I've tried with various domain names, pretty much anything I could think of. I'm totally lost why I cant bind with ldp and I can connect in ASIEdit with these domain\username and password but can't from my CommerceServer ASP .NET application...Is there some other step I'm missing?
Thanks,
John
You should follow the information here, there is a lot of good stuff about secure connections and how to disable them within your ADAM instance for development purposes.

I'm getting the following error when I try to run the powershell script generated by Azure Devops to config my deployment group. How do I fix this.
"The remote server returned an error: (407) Proxy Authentication Required."
It looks like you're behind an authenticating proxy. Powershell isn't great at handling them - some PS commands use the system proxy, some don't. There's several ways of working around it though if you search for that specific issue.
You could try this added to your script (just insert at the start of the script), which takes your current credential/proxy and passes it to the any web requests:
[System.Net.WebRequest]::DefaultWebProxy = [System.Net.WebRequest]::GetSystemWebProxy()
[System.Net.WebRequest]::DefaultWebProxy.Credentials = [System.Net.CredentialCache]::DefaultNetworkCredentials
These types of messages are not unique to anything with Azure. It's purely an environmental network issue, that you must implement in your code.
Similar posts have been asked here...
The remote server returned an error: (407) Proxy Authentication Required
... but they actually showed what their code looks like when making a request ...
myProxy.Credentials = NetworkCredential("user", "password", "domain");
<system.net>
<defaultProxy enabled="true" useDefaultCredentials="true">
<bypasslist>
<clear />
</bypasslist>
<proxy proxyaddress="myproxy:9000"
usesystemdefault="false"
bypassonlocal="true"
autoDetect="False" />
</defaultProxy>
</system.net>
... whereas you are not. I point you back to the SO rules in my comment.
So, see that SO, to determine if anything in that thread helps you.
Checking the powershell script, you can find it calls .\config.cmd --deploymentgroup ....
So, you can edit it to specify proxy information:
./config.cmd --proxyurl xxx --proxyusername "myuser" --proxypassword "mypass" --deploymentgroup ...

I have an existing WCF REST service running on an Azure Windows Server 2012 using IIS8. Let say 1x.2x.3x.4x:7777/InvService.svc/RESTquery is how my users currently use the service.
I am wanting to replace the IP address with a hostname, say www.testDomain.com so the user will can then use www.testDomain.com:7777/InvService.svc/RESTquery.
After obtaining the domain name from GoDaddy, assigning IP 1x.2x.3x.4x, and testing it (my default site on the server comes up, hence why I am using port 7777). When I try www.testDomain.com:7777/InvService.svc/RESTquery I get a "Connection Timed Out" error.
I believe I am needing to add or change something inside my Web.config file but cannot seem to find the right answer. Here is what my current unsuccessful Web.config file looks like.
<services>
<service name="WCFInventoryService.InvService">
<endpoint address="RESTquery" behaviorConfiguration="restPoxBehavior"
binding="webHttpBinding" contract="WCFInventoryService.IInvService" />
<identity>
<dns value="www.testDomain.com" />
</identity>
</endpoint>
<host>
<baseAddresses>
<add baseAddress="http://www.testDomain.com/"/>
</baseAddresses>
</host>
</service>
</services>
What am I doing wrong? or should try?
I solved my problem. The problem was how the domain was set up in GoDaddy. In the GoDaddy account, the domain was set up to forward to the IP address and not to point to. Once I removed the forwarding record and changed the A record to point to the IP address in the GoDaddy account, the WCF service was accessible by using www.testDomain.com:7777/InvService.svc/RESTquery
My connection string is working when I am connecting via IP adresss
<connectionStrings>
<add name="DefaultConnection" connectionString="Data Source=ALIAS_SERVERNAME;Initial Catalog=DATABASE_NAME;Integrated Security=True" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
<add name="DefaultContainer" connectionString="metadata=res://*/Models.Db.ModelName.csdl|res://*/Models.Db.ModelName.ssdl|res://*/Models.Db.ModelDb.msl;provider=System.Data.SqlClient;provider connection string="data source=192.168.0.61;initial catalog=DATABASE_NAME;integrated security=True;multipleactiveresultsets=True;application name=EntityFramework"" providerName="System.Data.EntityClient" />
</connectionStrings>
I have created Alias on remote server, like I did it localy (same ports and names) ,but it doesnt working. And when I put IP addres in connection string, like the one I have posted it is working.
Can someone pleas give me some instructions on how to troubleshot problem.
Error I am getting when I try to connect via Alias, and via IP it is working. Btw can connect localy via Alias.
(EntityException): The underlying provider failed on Open.
So, your DB server is aware of its alias name, but your application server is not. You have to create alias on application server.
You can do that with
cliconfg.exe
(Start > Run > cliconfg > Click "OK")
And than set your protocol, and port same as on DB server
You might need to add SQL Server name i.e. SQLEXPRESS, etc. at the end of your alias as shown below:
<connectionStrings>
<add name="DefaultConnection" connectionString="Data Source=ALIAS_SERVERNAME\SQLEXPRESS;
Initial Catalog=DATABASE_NAME;Integrated Security=True" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
</connectionStrings>
If you do not use default name for MSSQL Server then you need to change with what you used as name of it. You can check it on the Server Name field of the Connect dialog of SQL Server Management Studio as shown below.
Update: Here is the DataLink properties dialog shown below:
If it does not solved the problem, have a look at The underlying provider failed on open. Hope this helps...
Hoping you will be doing good i am having some problem on my hosting server when i implement PayPal using Rest API Sample of Paypal and using Log4net

And sometime is is showing this error: "Request Failed"
Please help in this context.

I have recently upgraded our Azure solution to use the new 1.7 SDK. CSPack warned that it was running on a legacy syntax and required a definition in the service definition to run under full IIS. Here's what I added.
<Sites>
<Site name="Web" physicalDirectory="..\Portal\MyApp.Portal">
<Bindings>
<Binding name="HttpIn" endpointName="HttpIn" />
</Bindings>
</Site>
</Sites>
The web role is an MVC3 application with the following mail settings defined in web.config.
<system.net>
<mailSettings>
<smtp deliveryMethod="Network">
<network host="smtp.gmail.com" userName="support#myapp.com" enableSsl="true" port="587" password="mypassword"/>
</smtp>
</mailSettings>
These settings are pulled fine from web.config for sending emails from code by just declaring a SMTP client and using it to send emails,
SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient();
But when I add the section to the service definition the setting are not used and I get a SMTP host was not specified every time an email is attempted. The new SmtpClient() has none of the settings from config. I can not figure out how to fix this nor can I find any info elsewhere.
Try changing the name of your site to anything other than "Web".
There's a poorly documented feature of this syntax that a site with the name of "Web" will have all of it's settings like physicalDirectory ignored. If this works it might pay to think about whether or not you actually need the physicalDirectory specified.
