Custom WCF Service Deployment

Hi,
We have tried to create the document set using REST API and not able to create the document set using REST API. Finally we have decided to use the Custom WCF service to create the document set. We have three approaches to deploying the WCF service.
1. IIS hosted service.
2. Inside the Layouts folder deployment
3. ISAPI folder deployment.
Which location is good to deploy the custom WCF service ?. I am going to call this service from java application to create the document set.
Thank you,
Mylsamy

Hi.
You can use CKSDEV visual studio extension to create your own WCF service.
The service is created under the
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\ISAPI\yourservice
folder

Custom wcf service that uses SharePoint Object Model.

Hi All,
I am writing a custom service on SharePoint. I have noticed most of the people do deploy the custom wcf service in layout folder in 12/14/15 hive. I am wondering is it mandatory? Can’t we deploy the custom wcf service that uses SharePoint Object Model as
virtual directory on a specific port?
Regards Restless Spirit

It is suggested to use WCF in 12/14/15 hive folder due to security and eas in use. Check below

If you want to use the server object model you have to host your WCF service on the same server as your SharePoint is installed on.
If the WCF service has to be on a different server you can use the client object model or the SharePoint webservices to communicate to SharePoint.

BIzTalk schema exposed as wcf service deployment in WIndows server which dont have bizTalk installed

Hi All,
I am deploying my Biztalk wcf service (exposed from Schema) in SIT environment which dont have BizTAlk installed. But BizTalk is installed in One server and Webservices are there in another server.
When I browse the service, it is throwing errors as below.
Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {9D0E435E-4CCE-4536-83FA-4A5040674AD6} failed due to the following error: 80040154 Class not registered (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80040154 (REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG)).

Microsoft.BizTalk.Adapter.Wcf.Runtime.TransportProxySingleton..cctor() +23
So please advise me on this. Am I going in correct way? Is it possible like this or do we need to install BizTalk for BizTAlk wcf services also in that environment?
Thanks in Advance

Hi,
If you wish to deploy BizTalk WCF services onto another server, you can do so but you need to install BizTalk
there. This is needed because some dlls are needed for the BizTalk WCF services such that it can point effieciently to the receive location in another server (where actual BizTalk application is running). Also the BizTalk runtime is needed in the other server
and hence you need to just install BizTalk on the other server.
Now if your other server is in the DMZ, then you might not go with the above option of installing BizTalk
over there. In that case you need to install Microsoft ISA server (Internet Security and Application Server) and configure your DMZ with that. In that case you can host your BizTalk WCF services over there and make it point to the actual receive locations
on your BizTalk server.

Anonymous Custom WCF Web Service

Can anyone let me know how to allow a WCF web service, rolled out within a feature, to allow anonymous access?
I'm not much of a WCF guru I'm afraid.
I have the web service up and running and working. But within my test harness I can create a service reference by providing the URL to the web service ending with /MEX.
However, I have to provide a NetworkCredentials object to the ClientCredentials of the proxy. I don't want this web service to require credentials - I want it to allow completely anonymous connections. I tried allowing 'Anonymous Authentication'
within IIS but that has had no affect.
It seems that no matter how hard I try I always end up getting the error message:
The HTTP request is unauthorized with client authentication scheme 'Anonymous'. The authentication header received from the server was 'NTLM,Basic realm="<myWebSite>"'.
Any help/pointers greatly appreciated.
Kind regards,
Tom.

one of the problem of custom wcf service hosted in SharePoint is how to disable anonymous access:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/hu-HU/sharepointdevelopmentprevious/thread/e3283575-1b32-40fb-b093-9545bf378aa4 ;
However, you just have the opposite problem, have you enabled anonymous access for your web application and site?

Questions regarding deploying Biztalk WCF service to higher environments.

Here is my situation:
I have published BizTalk schema as WCF service in my local.
I need to move this to higher environments, is there any way I can move this to upper environments without again using WCF service publishing wizard in respective environments.

Hi,
These are the more common options that I have used for this task:
Use the IIS Web Deploy: with this tool, you can export the WCF Service as a ZIP package that can be imported in the target environment manually or using the command line.
http://www.iis.net/downloads/microsoft/web-deploy
http://jpsmit.bloggingabout.net/2012/06/04/deploying-wcf-services-using-web-deploy/
Include the WCF service inside the BizTalk deployment package: I don't recommend this approach because it doesn't allow almost any customization when deployed in the target environment.
Generate a Web Setup Project: other option can be creating a web setup Project in visual studio that will deploy the WCF service.It allows some customization when deploying in the target enviorment.
http://jpsmit.bloggingabout.net/2010/03/29/deploying-a-wcf-service-using-a-web-setup-project/
Using a custom tool: as Rachid Sikrosia said in the previous post, you can use BizTalk Deployment Framework o BizTalk powershell addin to do this task.
https://psbiztalk.codeplex.com/
In my last Project, I have used a combination of both Web Setup Project and some powershell scripts to configure correctly the web site, application pool, enabled bindings, etc...
Best regards.

Root element is missing - Response from a WCF service - WCF-Custom adapter

hi BizTalk experts,
In the production environment, as soon as the response is getting subscribed by the orchestration, the orchestration instance is getting suspended and the error that shows up in console is
"Root element is missing".
I have checked the actual response message in the console it is a well formed xml. This is happening only for a few responses from the WCF services. A majority of them are getting processed successfully. I have tried getting the parsing the response in a
pipeline (using custom pipeline component, the production one uses xml receive) and pass it to the orchestration, but it fails giving the same error.
Thanks in advance.

Do you have any mapping done on the response message from the WCF service . ?
If so Better to copy the suspended message coming from the WCF service and validate against the custom response Schema you have created.
Note : You can try running fiddler tool to check the response from from the web service incase of failure.
Also try logging the message in the event viewer or any debug tool.
Thanks
Abhishek

Manual failover solution for a custom proxy service that should be deployed

I am looking for a manual failover solution for a custom proxy service that should be deployed on a cluster as a pinned service (requests have to be executed one after the other). The constraints I am encountering are:
a) Proxy service are deployed to all cluster's members by default.
b) Configuration of proxy services to cope with migration of JMS ressources.
Any idea?
Thanks in advance for your support

Cross Domain error for Silverlight + MVC application with self hosted WCF service on azure

Hi,
We are migrating existing Silverlight application to MVC; existing Silverlight application is hosted on
Azure which is consuming self-hosted WCF service. For authentication we have implemented
ADFS with WIF (passive). The cloud service (<myWebSite>.cloudapp.net) is C Name to (<myWebSite>.<myDomain>.com) and we
are consuming WCF service at <myWebSite>.cloudapp.net/<myService>.svc, as we were getting “Cross Domain” error so we have added “clientaccesspolicy.xml” at the root of “WEB ROLE”.
Existing Silverlight application works fine but the problem occurred when we deploy our migrated application to the same cloud service. We are getting a “Cross Domain” error.
The same migrated application works fine on UAT environment, the only difference is UAT environment is
without ADFS WIF implementation.
Migrated application is half Silverlight and half MVC with initial landing page is Silverlight. MVC web role is used to host the service i.e. .SVC . To go to SL landing page , redirected from home controller. Following is being observed in fiddler for this
application
Existing Silverlight application -
After authentication with ADFS it redirect to Silverlight landing page.
Before calling service method it looks for “clientaccesspolicy.xml”
In response header we are getting the content of “clientaccesspolicy.xml”
And after this everything works fine
Migrated Silverlight-MVC application –
After authentication with ADFS it redirects to “HomeController” and from there we are redirecting to Silverlight landing page.
Before calling service method it looks for “clientaccesspolicy.xml”
In response header we are getting following content - “https://federation-sts.<myDomain>.com/adfs/ls/?wa=wsignin1.0&
wtrealm=https%3a%2f%2f<myWebSite>.<myDomain>.com&
wctx=rm%3d0%26id%3dpassive%26ru%3d%252fclientaccesspolicy.xml&wct=2014-03-17T10%3a36%3a04Z”
4.Throw “Cross Domain” error.
Also we have added filter in
RouteConfig
for .xml file
routes.IgnoreRoute("{*allxml}",
new { allxml = @".*\.xml(/.*)?" });
NOTE: There is no configuration change apart from MVC configuration.
We have done RDP to web role and found that “clientaccesspiolicy.xml” is present at “E:\approot” location and it is also accessible at “https://<myWebSite>.<myDomain>.com/clientaccesspolicy.xml”.
Please help
Thanks,
Rahul P

Hi,
Please try to configure the cross domain policy file to allow public read access (that is, access it without federation requirement), make sure you can access the address
http://something/clientaccesspiolicy.xml directly in a browser
without redirecting to check whether the cross domain policy file could be anonymous accessed (Please start a new browser session and make sure you're
not logged in. Then test the cross domain policy file.).

WCF service setup with certificate authentication error

I have a WCF service setup and I need to use a certificate with it and are getting numerous errors when I attempt to browse it. The 1st error I get is "Security settings for this service require 'Anonymous' Authentication but it is not enabled for
the IIS application that hosts this service."
This sounds like a straightforward error message and setting the authentication method in IIS to anonymous resolves being able to browse the service. But I need to use a certificate and setting authentication to anonymous is obviously not right since we
only want those with the proper certificate to access the service. I have all authentication methods in IIS set to disabled when I get the above error message. I have the SSL settings in IIS for the service set to require a certificate as well. I am using
IIS 8.5 as well.
Here is my config file in hoping someone could point me in the correct direction. The service should only work over HTTPS since we are using a certificate and I need the meta data exposed as well hence the mexHttpBinding. I have searched the web but no solution
is working. Any help is appreciated.

Hi spark29er,
>>The service should only work over HTTPS since we are using a certificate and I need the meta data exposed as well hence the mexHttpBinding.
For creating the HTTPS WCF service, first please change the mexHttpBinding to
mexHttpsBinding as following:
<endpoint contract="IMetadataExchange" binding="mexHttpsBinding" address="mex" />
For more information, please try to refer to:
#Seven simple steps to enable HTTPS on WCF WsHttp bindings:
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/36705/simple-steps-to-enable-HTTPS-on-WCF-WsHttp-bindi .
Then please try to check the following article about how to do the certificate authentication on HTTPS WCF Service:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/imayak/archive/2008/09/12/wcf-2-way-ssl-security-using-certificates.aspx .
Besides, setting the
includeExceptionDetailInFaults as false can give us more detailed error information.

Custom web service in SharePoint 2010

Hi,
I have developed one custom web service and deployed in inside 14 hive Layout folder. I have to consume this custom web service in WCF REST services. This WCF REST service will be consumed in to HTML 5 and javascript application (Presentation Layer). Here
is the code for Custom web service :
[WebMethod]
public string[] GetSponsorList()
string url = "https://ptmdev.bpiper.com/";
//string strUserName = "ravikant";
string sponsorTitle = string.Empty;
string[] arrTitle;
string[] myArray;
DataTable dtSponsor = new DataTable();
string error = string.Empty;
ArrayList myArrayList = new ArrayList();
try
dtSponsor.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("sValue", typeof(string)));
dtSponsor.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("sText", typeof(string)));
using (SPSite site = new SPSite(url))
using (SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb())
//SPUserToken userToken = web.AllUsers[strUserName].UserToken;
SPWebApplication webApplication = SPContext.GetContext(web).Site.WebApplication;
SPSiteCollection siteCollections = webApplication.Sites;
int i = 0;
if(web.CurrentUser!=null)
myArrayList.Add("User:"+web.CurrentUser.LoginName);
else
myArrayList.Add("Null User..");
foreach (SPSite siteCollection in siteCollections)
if (siteCollection.RootWeb.DoesUserHavePermissions(SPBasePermissions.ViewPages))
if (siteCollection.Url.ToString().ToLower().Contains("/sponsor/"))
sponsorTitle = siteCollection.RootWeb.Title;
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(sponsorTitle))
arrTitle = siteCollection.Url.Split('/');
sponsorTitle = arrTitle[arrTitle.Length - 1];
dtSponsor.Rows.Add(new object[] { siteCollection.Url, sponsorTitle });
i = i + 1;
siteCollection.Close();
catch (Exception ex)
error = ex.Message;
myArrayList.Add(error);
if (dtSponsor.Rows.Count == 0)
myArrayList.Add("No Data available 101");
myArrayList.Add("No Data available 102");
myArrayList.Add("No Data available 103");
for (int i = 0; i <= dtSponsor.Rows.Count - 1; i++)
for (int j = 0; j <= dtSponsor.Columns.Count - 1; j++)
myArrayList.Add(dtSponsor.Rows[i][j].ToString());
myArray = (string[])myArrayList.ToArray(typeof(string));
return myArray;
Above code will return a string array of SiteCollection URLs and Title. Th issue is siteCollection.RootWeb.DoesUserHavePermissions(SPBasePermissions.ViewPages)
logic is failed and due to this string array does not return desired result.
web object is not containing users information due to that DoesUserHavePermissions logic is
failing.
Urgent help is needed.
Thanks,
Ravi

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you have issue about siteCollection.RootWeb.DoesUserHavePermissions(SPBasePermissions.ViewPages) logic when you custom web service.
You can use siteCollection.RootWeb.DoesUserHavePermissions( SPContext.Current.Web.CurrentUser, SPBasePermissions.ViewPages)
to check whether it works.
In addition, you can use a RunWithElevatedPrivileges delegate.
For more information, you can refer to:
“Attempted to perform an unauthorized operation” and SPWeb.DoesUseHavePermissions

How we can limit the number of concurrent calls to a WCF service without use the Singleton pattern or without do the change in BizTalk Configuration file?

How can we send only one message to a WCF service at a time? How we can limit the number of concurrent calls to a WCF service without use the Singleton pattern or without do the change in BizTalk Configuration file? Can we do it by Host throttling?

Hi Pawan,
You need to use WCF-Custom adapter and add the ServiceThrottlingBehavior service behavior to a WCF-Custom Locations.
ServiceThrottlingBehavior.MaxConcurrentCalls - Gets or sets a value that specifies the maximum number of messages actively processing across a ServiceHost. The MaxConcurrentCalls property specifies the maximum number of messages actively
processing across a ServiceHost object. Each channel can have one pending message that does not count against the value of MaxConcurrentCalls until WCF begins to process it.
Follow MSDN-

Consuming Orchestration Exposed WCF service On remote system.

Hello All , I am new to BizTalk, so bear with me
I have created an orchestration for Insert operation to DB and Exposed it as WCF service, finally deployed in IIS fine.
but whenever I am trying browse wsdl of service its prompting as : Network Error (dns_unresolved_hostname)
Your requested host "DomainName" could not be resolved by DNS.
url : http://domainName/Biztalk_PaymentTransaction_Process_PaymentTransaction_Port_RcvTransaction.svc?singleWsdl .
I just replaced that domainName and put IP there I am able to browse my service, worked fine on Local system.
but while trying with same url replacing domainname with
IP on remote system, its throwing Exception as below
There was no endpoint listening at http://DomainName/Biztalk_PaymentTransaction_Process_PaymentTransaction_Port_RcvTransaction.svc
that could accept the message. This is often caused by an incorrect address or SOAP action. See InnerException, if present, for more details.
please Explain what I need to do to resolve this,
Do I'm missing something or what extra I need to DO...
Thanks to all.

Associate the domain name and the IP of the server where the service is hosted in the host file.
Goto the server where the service is hosted.
Goto the server’s host file in %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
Take a backup of the host file before you edit it.
Add the following entry as the last line in the host file, replacing in it with the actual IP Domain name.
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx YourdomainName.com
where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx = IP and YourdomainName.com = domain name
