I built an AIR app a while ago. One of the users today got a new machine (XP) and keeps getting a 2032 error when the app tries to send/receive data via HTTPService I verified that this page works when accessed within a web browser. It also works on AIR apps on other machines. The page and the AIR app haven't been changed for months, the only thing that has changed is this particular users computer. I recompiled to get a more specific error and this is what I got:
(mx.messaging.messages::ErrorMessage)#0
body = ""
clientId = "DirectHTTPChannel0"
correlationId = "B38588EC-AEA0-84F0-F5B2-F6B6AB6C3456"

faultDetail = "Error: [IOErrorEvent type="ioError" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="Error #2032" errorID=2032]. URL: https://www.example.com/mypage.php"
faultString = "HTTP request error"
headers = (Object)#1
DSStatusCode = 0
messageId = "2BC38D14-63DD-345E-50DD-F6B6AEE75438"
rootCause = (flash.events::IOErrorEvent)#2

errorID = 2032
eventPhase = 2
target = (flash.net::URLLoader)#3
text = "Error #2032"
type = "ioError"
timestamp = 0
timeToLive = 0
As I am writing this I had the user restart and relaunch the application, it is now working so I am not too worried about it, but I am still curious what could have happened if anyone has any ideas?
Update
Today (next day) It is happening again and restart isn't even fixing it today. It has to be something on her machine interfering causing the problem because I can run the program on any other machine just fine with no problem. Not sure what it could be or how to troubleshoot that?
Did the server hiccup just then, i.e. downtime and/or cosmic ray? Cross reference the user access time with the apache access/error.log on the server. Did crossdomain.xml change anyplace that your program references?
I had somewhat the same problem here but with a Flash (Web - Flex 4.1 SDK) application.
after trying out a huge assortment of solutions we narrowed we finally came up with one that works pretty reliably for all systems, including newly installed machines.
A. add global event listeners at the root (or stage) of the application, on flex preinitialize stage.
IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR
IOErrorEvent.NETWORK_ERROR
HTTPStatusEvent.HTTP_STATUS
ErrorEvent.ERROR
SecurityErrorEvent.SECURITY_ERROR
if an error is cought - event.preventDefault();
B. add event listeners on every loader used in the App for the following errors:
IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR
SecurityErrorEvent.SECURITY_ERROR
HTTPStatusEvent.HTTP_STATUS
*to attempt recovery, like falling back to an external interface call...
C. place all the SWZ files from the bin-release folder together with the SWF file in the same path on the server you use to deliver your App.
in my case these are the files needed:
sparkskins_4.5.1.21328.swz
spark_4.5.1.21328.swz
textLayout_2.0.0.232.swz
rpc_4.5.1.21328.swz
osmf_1.0.0.16316.swz
framework_4.5.1.21328.swz
* to discover this i used Chrome developer console to see which errors occur on the page and discovered a chain of 404s when the app tries to download these files.
D. have a properly configured crossdomain.xml policy file which includes the allow http request xml tag.
<allow-http-request-headers-from domain="*" headers="*"/>
replace the * as needed in your particular case.
Cheers

We are using ASP.NET Identity with IdentityServer4. We've added a Client to use with Azure AD. This works great within a web page, that part is working.
Our end goal is a UWP app, so we found the IdentityModel.OidcClient which has a UWP sample. This sample has two browser classes. We configured HTTPS, but the WabBrowser class now refuses to connect to the site at all. If I change the config to hit https://demo.identityserver.io then it works, but all the other config is the same, so I'm not sure what the problem could be. It shows an error message in the pop up browser that it could not connect.
I looked at the SystemBrowser class, but this logs in fine, then the browser window does not close, and even if we close it, the code doesn't move on to get back a result. Looking at the source, this is not surprising, it calls:
Launcher.LaunchUriAsync(new Uri(options.StartUrl));
and that's all. The RedirectUri is not passed in, and mechanism appears to exist to use it. So, the behaviour we see appears to be the extent of what the class can do.
Looking at the console .NET Core sample, it has a SystemBrowser class that works. I updated the UWP sample to use the Fall Creators Update and was able to bring in the ASP.NET Core dlls needed to compile this code. It sets up a class like this:
public LoopbackHttpListener(int port, string path = null)
{
path = path ?? String.Empty;
if (path.StartsWith("/")) path = path.Substring(1);
_url = $"http://127.0.0.1:{port}/{path}";
_host = new WebHostBuilder()
.UseKestrel()
.UseUrls(_url)
.Configure(Configure)
.Build();
_host.Start();
}
and I can confirm this gets called only once, but even if I hard code an unused IP address, I get an error that the IP is in use.
So, at this stage, the sample that exists for UWP works for the demo server but not for ours (I suspect an HTTPS issue, but that's not the error I get), and importing code that works for a Core sample, does not work either. I've spent a couple of days on this and would appreciate a nudge in the right direction.
So, to recap, the WabBrowser seems the best bet but, for my localhost IdentityServer I get this:
and if I try to use a .NET Core library that works elsewhere, it thinks a port is in use. I suspect I need to work out why WabBrowser can't connect to my local site. I have turned off Fiddler. I can browse to my https URL and get a disco document, in the browser, at https://localhost:44305/.well-known/openid-configuration.
There are extra steps necessary to enable localhost in the Web Authentication Broker -
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/jj658959%28v=vs.85%29.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
This website gave me the fix. Here is a synopsis:
Remove loopback isolation
For security and reliability reasons, UWP applications are not allowed to send requests to the loopback interface. While Visual Studio automatically creates exemptions for debugged apps, this feature won't be helpful in this case, as the authentication broker always executes in a separate process.
If you see this (cryptic) error message in your Windows event logs, then you're likely facing this issue:
AuthHost encountered a navigation error at URL: [...] with StatusCode: 0x800C0005.
One option to fix it is to use the loopack exemption utility developed by Eric Lawrence. It's natively included in Fiddler 4 but can also be downloaded as a standalone software. To allow the authentication broker to communicate with the loopback interface, exempt the applications starting with microsoft.windows.authhost and save your changes:
If everything was properly configured, you should now see the login/consent page returned by your server.
I am working on a small project, in asp.net mvc3, that would copy the deployment files from a local drive to a share drive on a window server 2008 R2 server. I am connected using WMI, and the connection is successful. However, I tried to create a folder, and I receive the message "Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password." Here is a sample code:
bool isConnected = false;
options.Username = user.Name.Trim();
options.Password = user.password.Trim();
mScope = new ManagementScope("\\\\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\\root\\cimv2", options);
mScope.Connect();
if (mScope.IsConnected == true)
{
//I've gotten to this point. Then, the code below throw the exception
Directory.CreateDirectory(#"\\\\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\Tester\shareFile.txt");
isConnected = true;
}
I'd like to know what am I doing? Is that the right way of doing it?
it is the correct way however it will be the current user you are trying to access that gets passed to the remote computer to create the directory. The management scope at this point has nothing to do with Directory.CreateDirectory. These are 2 different "worlds". you do give the creds to ManagementScope but this has no affect on Directory.CreateDirectory. you could use impersonation to do what you are wanting to:
How do you do Impersonation in .NET?
it is unclear though if you are doing this in ASP.NET/MVC or a different platform. your tags indicate ASP.NET MVC but not your main question.
remember, if you are using ASP.NET/MVC, the credentials of the app pool are being used to perform such actions.
I am struggling with Meteor when using separate client and server directories and was hoping someone could help me.
My server code in the server subdirectory looks like:
Testing = new Meteor.Collection("testing");
Testing.insert({hello1:'world1'});
Testing.insert({hello2:'world2'});
Testing.insert({hello3:'world3'});
Meteor.publish("testing", function() {
console.log('server: ' + Testing.find().count());
return Testing.find();
});
My client code in the client subdirectory looks like:
Meteor.subscribe("testing");
var Testing = new Meteor.Collection("testing");
console.log('count: ' + Testing.find().count());
I have tried this with autopublish on and off.
In my terminal window, I can see the log statement output a number of items as I would expect. But for my client, in the browser console window I always see a count of 0.
Not sure if this is related, but when I modify my subscribe statement and save my changes, I see this error in my console window:
POST http://localhost:3000/sockjs/574/ukpxre9v/xhr 503 (Service Unavailable) sockjs- 0.3.4.js:821
AbstractXHRObject._start sockjs-0.3.4.js:821
(anonymous function)
I'm sure I'm making some stupid mistake, but I haven't had any luck tracking it down. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
You're running console.log('count: ' + Testing.find().count()); too soon Meteor will sync your server collection down to the client but it takes a very short amount of time.
For instance you could run console.log('count: ' + Testing.find().count()); in your web console it should give you a proper result because you would have waited half a second or so for it to load the data down from the server.
You could put this code in a reactive context so it shows the live count correctly, such as Meteor.autorun or a Template helper.
The reason you see that 503 XHR error is when you modify your code and save it, meteor restarts and serves up the new content asap, so the socket between the client and server is temporarily interrupted, until it refreshes the page. This is not really anything wrong with your code.
I'm trying to start a new process from my WCF Service. For that purpose I use
var process = Process.Start(
new ProcessStartInfo { WorkingDirectory = config.WorkingDirectory,
FileName = config.WorkingDirectory,
Arguments = string.Format("{0} {1}", mpcName, jobId),
CreateNoWindow = false,
WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden });
The WebApp is using a separate AppDomain whose Identity is set to a user account having administrator rights on the server.
Process.Start throws an exception telling
Server execution failed, at System.Diagnostics.Process.StartWithShellExecuteEx(ProcessStartInfo startInfo)
I also tested setting user and password in ProcessStartInfo. Specifying the password was quite tricky (SecureString) and then I received
The stub received bad data, at System.Diagnostics.Process.StartWithCreateProcess(ProcessStartInfo startInfo)
so I skipped this way.
Do you know what is the reason for my problem and how I can fix it.
I forgot: I'm using Windows Server 2008 R2, IIS 7
I got it!
It's very strange but the only change needed was to invoke
Process.Start(exeFullPath, args);
Obviously the combination of ProcessStartInfo props is important.
This q/a helped me fix this issue in one of my projects, but different cause --
was trying to start process as a Domain user from an integration test being run by nCrunch. Turns out MY problem was a really long argument string.
(same argument string works with no user/password)
Environment is Windows 8, 64 bit.
Anyway, just gonna have to pass the arg data a different way.
Issue
Msxml2.ServerXMLHTTP keeps returning 401 - Unauthorised errors each time we attempt to read the contents of a file (ASP) from a web server.
Source server is running IIS6, using NTLM integrated login.
This process has been used successfully before, but only in as far as extracting XML files from external websites, not internal ones.
The proxy settings in the registry of the server on which the script is run has also been updated to bypass the website in question, but to no avail.
All paths identified in the VBScript have been checked and tested, and are correct.
User running the script has correct read/write permissions for all locations referenced in the script.
Solution needed
To identify the cause of the HTTP 401 Unauthorised messages, so that the script will work as intended.
Description
Our organisation operates an intranet, where the content is replicated to servers at each of our remote sites. This ensures these sites have continued fast access to important information, documentation and data, even in the event of losing connectivity.
We are in the middle of improving the listing and management of Forms (those pesky pieces of paper that have to be filled in for specific tasks). This involves establising a database of all our forms.
However, as the organisation hasn't been smart enough to invest in MSSQL Server instances at each site, replication of the database and accessing it from the local SQL server isn't an option.
To work around this, I have constructed a series of views (ASP pages) which display the required data. I then intend to use Msxml2.ServerXMLHTTP by VBScript, so I can read the resulting pages and save the output to a static file back on the server.
From there, the existing replication process can stream these files out to the site - with users having no idea that they're looking at a static page that just happened to be generated from database output.

ElseIf webObj.Status >= 400 And webObj.Status <= 599 Then
MsgBox "Error Occurred : " & webObj.Status & " - " & webObj.statusText
Else
MsgBox webObj.ResponseText
End If
Replace your line:
webObj.Open "GET", strURL
With:
webObj.Open "GET", strURL, False, "username", "password"
In most cases 401 Unauthorized means you haven't supplied credentials. Also you should specifiy False to indicate you don't want async mode.
It sounds like the O.P. got this working with the correct proxy settings in the registry (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/291008 explains why proxy configuration will fix this). Newer versions of ServerXMLHTTP have a setProxy method that can be used to set the necessary proxy configuration in your code instead.
In the O.P. code above, after webObj is created, the following line of code would set up the proxy correctly:
webObj.setProxy 2, "0.0.0.0:80", "*.fpc.wa.gov.au"
ServerXMLHTTP will pass on the credentials of the user running the code if it is configured with a proxy, and if the target URL bypasses that proxy. Since you are bypassing the proxy anyway, you can make it a dummy value "0.0.0.0:80", and make sure your target url is covered by what you specify in the bypass list "*.fpc.wa.gov.au"
I would first test if you can reach your url through a normal browser on the same server X you run your code on (A). I would try then reach the url from another PC. One never used to reach that url but in the same network as server X (B).
If B works but A doesn't I would suspect that for some reason your source server (i.e. that one that serves the url) blocks server X for some reason. Check the security settings of II6 and of NTLM.
If both A and B don't work, there is something wrong more in general with your source server (i.e. it blocks everything or NTML doesn't allow you in).
If A works (B doesn't matter then), the problem has to be somewhere in your code. In that case, I would recommend fiddler. This tool can give you the HTTP requests of both your browser and your code in realtime. You can then compare both. That should give you at least a very strong hint about (if not immediately give you) the solution.
