Azure Authentication for Cloud Services

I updated Visual Studio to Web Tools 2013.1 and the "Enable Azure Authentication" disappeared. I need to secure this application, the Azure AD and domain are done, but I can't seem to find how to do it in Visual Studio anymore. I keep getting the
message:
The current installed Azure Authentication Tools is not compatible with the verion of Web Developer Tools you recently updated; therefore , the Azure Authentication related command and publish support will be unavailable.
'Click Here' to download the required update
SO IN TOTAL FRUSTRATION - One would think you could click and solve the problem BUT....NO
You get the message "This product requires Microsoft Web Developer Tools 2012.2.1 - Visual Studio 2012" Please install it, then try again installing this product again.  Then the dialog closes, and there is no resolution.
HELP!

hi,
From the error message, I think you may need check your VS and Web Tools version whether matched each other. 
Visual Studio to Web Tools 2013.1 need the version of Visual Studio 2012 and Visual Studio 2012 Express for Web.
If your VS met requirement, I suggest you could uninstall the Web Tools and installed it from this page (http://www.microsoft.com/en-in/download/details.aspx?id=41532 ). Any
update info, please let me know.

  • Authentication in Cloud Services

    Hi,
    I could not find good documentation on authentication for Cloud Services. I have a cloud service which I want to give access to just my organization. How do I achieve this?
    Thanks

    Please follow this link:
    http://www.asp.net/visual-studio/overview/2013/creating-web-projects-in-visual-studio#orgauthoptions
    Organizational account authentication options
    The Configure Authentication dialog gives you several options  for Azure Active Directory (Azure AD, which includes Office 365) or Windows Server  Active Directory (AD) account authentication:
    Cloud - Single Organization (Azure AD, or AD using
    directory integration with Azure AD)
    Cloud - Multi Organization (Azure AD, or AD using
    directory integration with Azure AD)

  • SSL and custom domain configuration for cloud service

    Hi,
    I am doing custom domain mapping and SSL configuration for a cloud service web role. Another important aspect is Cloud service web role uses ADFS in between for authentication.
    I have custom domain mapped, SSL uploaded on cloud services Certificates
    tab in management portal, certificate .pfx and chaining certs .CER are added as below -
    <Certificate name="UATCert" thumbprint="A" thumbprintAlgorithm="sha1" />
    <Certificate name="Certificate1" thumbprint="B" thumbprintAlgorithm="sha1" />
    <Certificate name="Certificate2" thumbprint="C" thumbprintAlgorithm="sha1" />
    I see these certificates getting added properly to Azure cloud service web role instance VM.
    The problem is, when I access the custom domain,
    https://mysite.com/default.aspx in the browser ultimately after ADFS login I see
    https://cloudservice.cloudapp.net/default.aspx. My understanding is, cloudapp.net should not be seen in the browser to the client. Also I keep getting error of certificates stating "There is
    a problem with this website’s security certificate" when browser shows cloudapp.net url.
    How can I avoid display of cloudapp.net in browser and show only custom domain Url. Also how can I avoid this certificate error ?
    Thoughts? 
    http://sanganakauthority.blogspot.com/

    Hi kunal,
    Based what you described, I understand that you want to use the custom domain for cloud service web role and apply azure active directory authentication to the web role application.
    >>>The problem is, when I access the custom domain,
    https://mysite.com/default.aspx in the browser ultimately after ADFS login I see
    https://cloudservice.cloudapp.net/default.aspx. 
    As for above issue, I think you should make sure you have registered the web application in azure AD both "SIGN-ON URL" and "Reply URL" are
     https://mysite.com/default.aspx 
    >>>Also I keep getting error of certificates stating "There is a problem with this website’s security certificate" when browser shows cloudapp.net url.
    Try to upload a valid certificate (provided by CA) to cloud service for your custom domain.

    hi Mahender,
    Thanks for your posting!
    For this issue, you could refer to this document and tutorials (Microsoft Antimalware Whitepaper ). And you need use the Azure Powershell (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dn771718.aspx).

  • HT4436 Do you have to pay for cloud services?

    Do you pay for cloud services??

    No iCloud's services are free (5 GB storage for your data. Purchased music, movies, apps, books, TV shows and your Photo Stream don’t count against your free storage). If you need more storage capacity you have to pay for the additional space.

  • Server-side authentication for web services

    I was hoping to use Azure's server-side authentication for a HTML/JS web app. Some things are a bit unclear. For example, if a new user authenticates via Facebook, I want to create an associated record on the server-side and associate extra data with the
    user, irrespective of the service used to log in. If they log in again, I want the client to be able to get this extra data (eg preferences) from the server. On the back-end, I also want to be able to update particular fields of this record that the user cannot
    change themselves. I know how to go about this in a plain Node.js backend, but not sure how some of these basic things map to using Azure's services.

    Once the user logs in, you will have their information available to your server scripts. So one option is to use a custom API (or a Mobile Services Table) to insert/read/update the user data. You would protect this endpoint so that only logged-in users can
    access it, and then access the
    user object to obtain an ID an associate it in a table row. Lookups could be performed by similarly querying for the ID.
    In terms of some fields being restricted, you could remove these from the update request itself.
    Some pointers that might be helpful:

  • SUP user authentication for web services

    Hi there.
    Has anyone in the comunity had any experience with building Web Service based Mobile Business Object (MBO) in SUP 1.5.2. We have built a mobile application for a blackberry device which consumes two ERP web services. The application deploys successfully and runs on the blackberry device just fine. However, untill now the user credentials needed to authenticate a consumer to a web service has been hard-coded into the mobile business object. This, from an accountability point of view, is not an acceptible model (i.e. all mobile users would be logging in to the ERP backend with 1 common user ID).
    Has anyone had any experience and could suggest an an alternative solution to this that would support accountability i.e. map SUP users to ERP users, trusted connections etc. and is this possible with SUP 1.5.2?
    S

    Actually, SUP 1.5.2 just provides the HTTP basic authentication for WS-MBO. It is enable that to create 'username' and 'password' on the WS-MBO as two input parameters. Thus, you can design your device app in SUP to prompt the dialog to accpet the username and password before you access your WS-MBO. Similar, if your web-service has input argument for username and password, you also can design a dialog like above.

  • Kerberos authentication for Excel Services

    Hi,
    I am configuring Keberos for Excel Service Application and facing some issue. Things i have done so far:
    Configured web application to use Kerberos: Verified it from server authentication logs, klist and net mon that web application is using kerberos.
    Excel service Account: domain\ExcelSVA
    SQL server service account: domain\SQLSERV
    C2WTS account : domain\C2wts
     set spn on in using setspn - s sp/excelservices domain\ExcelSVA and delegated constarined authentication to domain\SQLSERV
    then setspn - s sp/c2wts domain\C2wts and delegated constrained authentication to domain\SQLSERV.
    C2WS account has impersonate identity ,logon as service and act as part of OS rights in app servers where excel and c2wt are running 
    Now when i try to refresh data i get error :The data connection uses Windows Authentication and user credentials could not be delegated.
    The following connections failed to refresh: SQLServername port, databasename
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff487975.aspx
    First 3 errors don't apply to me since i cant see these errors in SP log files and my sharepoint and database servers are in same domain.
    For UPN, there is a email id assoisated with account that i am using and i have been using that email id to logon to other services in my company so UPN should be done too.
    The Excel Services service account must have Active Directory permissions to query the object. Now this got me confusing. Where do i actually
    give this? In sql server or AD? Which object does it need to query? The excel database in sql server. If it is so, then the permission needs to be granted on sql .
    Also this link http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/99a3cf4f-dabc-4ac9-9ea8-afa677199ffa/kerberos-and-excel-services?forum=sharepointgeneralprevious
    Microsoft solution described here is weired. I don't think sql server has c2wts or excel service application started on it. And from drop down list that is i don't know what is the solution talking of.
    Does any one have any idea if i am missing any delegation or any step?

  • User Authentication for Web Services

    Hi,
    I am developing a web services that resides in Intranet. Thus, would like to implement application layer of user authetication, i.e. to match the input user name and password against Database record through a web service logon() method. If authentication is passed, the client program is allowed to call subsequence web service methods, else exception needs to be thrown when calling subsequence methods.
    As understand that each method call to web services is treated seperately. Thus, how can we implement the authentication so that the client program only passes in the user name and password at once through logon() method, instead of perfoming the authentication for each method?
    Appreciate the advice. Thanks.

    Hi,
    But, I need to develop the web services logon method using WSDL which generated the LogonBindingImpl.java, instead of web services using EJB bean.
    Besides, the Web Service logon method (LogonBindingImpl.java) need to accept the input user name and password to check with the user name and password that stored in database table through the EJB bean. If checking successful, client program is allowed to invoke other WebServices method, else login failed exception need to be thrown when client calling other web services methods.
    Appreciate the advice here on how to achieve that. Thanks.

  • Setting Basic Authentication for Web Service in WLS 6.1

    Hi,
    I am trying to set-up a Basic Username/Password authentication for a Web Service
    that is hosted in WLS 6.1.
    How do I go about doing that? Also once I get the username and password, how do
    I pass that info
    to the SOAP servlet to do the authentication? Can you give me some pointers on
    this?
    Thanks
    Madhu

    How do you want to do it? Through use of client.jar for the service or
    directly? Here is how I do it directly:
    String auth = "guest", pwd = "guest";
    URL url = new URL("http://localhost:7001");
    URL cmdURL = new URL(url.toString()+"/systemtest/TestWebService");
    HttpURLConnection conn = (HttpURLConnection) cmdURL.openConnection();
    String encAuth =
    new BASE64Encoder().encode((auth + ":" + pwd).getBytes());
    // BASE64Encode distributes long strings on multiple
    // lines; we don't like that, no siree
    int it = 0;
    while ((it = encAuth.indexOf('\n')) != -1
    || (it = encAuth.indexOf('\r')) != -1) {
    encAuth = encAuth.substring(0, it) +
    encAuth.substring(it + 1);
    conn.setRequestProperty("Authorization", "Basic " + encAuth);
    conn.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "text/xml");
    conn.setRequestProperty("SOAPAction", cmdURL.toString());
    conn.setDoOutput(true);
    conn.setDoInput(true);
    conn.setUseCaches(false);
    OutputStream oStr = conn.getOutputStream();
    String cmd =
    "<?xml version=\"1.0\" ?>\n"
    + "<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap=\"http://schemas.xmls"
         + "oap.org/soap/envelope/\"><soap:Body>"
    + "<ping><arg0>false</arg0></ping>"
    + "</soap:Body></soap:Envelope>";
    oStr.write(cmd.getBytes());
    oStr.close();
    InputStream iStr = conn.getInputStream();
    byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
    while (true) {
    int size = iStr.read(buffer);
    if (size == -1)
    break;
    System.out.println(new String(buffer, 0, size));

  • Something going on with Azure Website and Cloud Service?

    Starting this morning, my website (WordPress) could not even load with Shared Plan. When I switch it to Basic plan it is running extremely slow (25s to load a page). This is a very low traffic site (100 page views/day). Even when there is only 1 connection
    it takes 25s to load. Also, just a few minutes ago, my cloud service app is getting "A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed

  • How to configure basic authentication for external services

    I have a BPM Project (11g) and within the composite I've added an external Web Service reference. This service uses basic authentication.
    I would like to deploy the composite with the username and password already configured.
    I have tried setting oracle.webservices.auth.username as a binding property and also as a property but neither seem to work. When the composite is deployed the basic authentication username is blank within Enterprise Manager.
    It also resets after updating it manually during subsequent releases.
    Any ideas?

  • HTTP Basic authentication for proxy service and its wsdl?

    Hello:
    For some reasons I needed to configure the HTTP basic authentication on a proxy service at OSB 11g. Everything was OK until I realized that, additionally to the authentication when calling the service, the OSB also asks for credentials when I try to get that proxy wsdl file.
    My requirements are to secure the proxy service when is called only, not when retrieving the wsdl.
    Is this possible to configure on OSB / WLS? How?
    Greetings!

    If I'm not wrong, Basic authentication is Transport level feature. So passing User/Password in SOAPHeader doesn't make sense. SOAP message can only be sent when you have a HTTP Connection open. During opening of HTTP connection User/Password is required for basic authentication.

  • Basic Authentication for Web Services

    I have build Web Service according to the weblogic 6.1 examples
    successfully deploying the .ear file etc.
    Now I want to add security to the WebService uri.
    I have added a <web-resource-collection> tag to the web.xml file, but
    what should I put for the <url-pattern> ?
    Am I obliged to 'manually' add <servlet> tags to the web.xml file in
    order to add a security constraint to a WebService deployed thru a
    .ear ?
    Taking WebLogic's own statelessSession.Weather example, what is the
    minimum I need to add to the web.xml file to have basic authentication
    on the weatheruri ?
    Thanks,
    Adam

    Ok, now I'm confused.  Is this a Flex app (runs in the browser) or an AIR app?  This makes a difference because in the browser, Flash Player/Flex uses the browser's http mechanism for transport, while AIR implements it directly.  The original posted indicated some difference between Firefox and IE, which led me to believe it was a Flex browser app.  Difference between these two would make me think something was wrong with the server response, and the two browsers were passing it (the problem) back to Flash Player differently.
