    Posted: 04-Nov-2010 at 6:17pm

Hi

I am having trouble connecting my SL-client to my Push-service. I can tell the Notification-service is started in the log:
 
 
I get an error when the client attemps to subscribe to the NotificationService, and I can tell from the log that the server is not hit.
 
Can you please explain how I specify endpoints for the NotificationService for my client and server with a small sample of a Web.config section and a section from a ServiceReferences.ClientConfig.
 
Hope you can help
 
-Rasmus

In the simplest configurations where you accept DevForce defaults, you don't need to provide a ClientConfig, and in your web.config all you need is the <notificationService enabled="true" /> setting, no serviceModel settings are required.  You also need to ensure several additional assemblies are deployed.  For the Silverlight application you need to reference the client version of System.ServiceModel.PollingDuplex.dll (it's in the "%Program Files(x86)%\Microsoft SDKs\Silverlight\v4.0\Libraries\Client" folder), and also IdeaBlade.EntityModel.Push.SL.  In the web application you must reference the server version of System.ServiceModel.PollingDuplex.dll ( (in the "%Program Files(x86)%\Microsoft SDKs\Silverlight\v4.0\Libraries\Server" folder).
 
For more advanced configurations where the config files are used you can find complete sample files in the Deployment folder of the DevForce Resource Center samples:  http://drc.ideablade.com/zip/DRC_SampleCode.zip.  Here are the highlights:
 
In the ServiceReferences.Clientconfig the endpoint and binding look like this (with your URL):
      <endpoint name="sl-NotificationService"
                address="http://localhost:9009/EntityServer.svc/sl-NotificationService"
                binding="customBinding" bindingConfiguration="pollingDuplex"
                contract="IdeaBlade.EntityModel.INotificationServiceAsync"
                />
 
       <binding name="pollingDuplex">
            <pollingDuplex duplexMode="MultipleMessagesPerPoll" inactivityTimeout="01:00:00"/>
            <binaryMessageEncoding />
            <httpTransport maxBufferSize="2147483647"  maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647"
                  transferMode="StreamedResponse"/>
        </binding>
 
In the web.config -
The service endpoint (under EntityServer):
     <endpoint address="sl-NotificationService"
           binding="pollingDuplexHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="duplexBinding"
           contract="IdeaBlade.EntityModel.INotificationService" />
 
The binding:
   <pollingDuplexHttpBinding>
        <binding name="duplexBinding"
         duplexMode="MultipleMessagesPerPoll" maxOutputDelay="00:00:03" />
   </pollingDuplexHttpBinding>
A binding extension is needed too:
    <bindingExtensions>
     <add name="pollingDuplexHttpBinding"
         type="System.ServiceModel.Configuration.PollingDuplexHttpBindingCollectionElement,
          System.ServiceModel.PollingDuplex,
          Version=4.0.0.0,
          Culture=neutral,
          PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35" />
    </bindingExtensions>

Hi
 
Thank you for your reply. I hvae double checked my assembly reference, and I have tried configuring the endpoints "manually", but still get the same error:
 
Message: Unhandled Error in Silverlight Application

   at IdeaBlade.EntityModel.AsyncProcessor`1.Signal()

I believe the problem is the SL-client not conntecting to the service, but I am sure the endpoint is configured correctly. Do you have any idea for how to debug where the problem is?
 
Best regards,
 
Rasmus

Since the stack trace isn't providing anything helpful here I would add either an ITraceLogger or a TraceViewer to the Silverlight application to capture trace messages.  You can find more information on the TraceViewer here:  http://drc.ideablade.com/xwiki/bin/view/Documentation/AdvPersist_TraceViewer#HUsingtheTraceViewerWithaSilverlightApp
and the ITraceLogger here:  http://drc.ideablade.com/ApiDocumentation/topic61.html.
 
If your application is deployed to IIS and your assemblies are in the GAC, also make sure that the PollingDuplex.dll is specified in the web.config or available in the bin folder.
 
I'm assuming you've already tried the SL Push sample from the downloadable samples and that worked OK, correct?

Thank you for your pointer to the SL-TraceViewer. The Traceviewer showed this error:  "Could not find endpoint element ith name EntityServer.sc-NctificationService and contract..."

So I changed the name of my endpoint in ServiceReferences.ClientConfig from

sl-NotificationService to EntityServer.svc-NotificationService

And that solved my problem. If this could be a help for others, here is my complete ServiceReferences.ClientConfig:
<configuration>

<system.serviceModel>

<client>

<endpoint name="EntityService"

address="../Services/EntityService.svc"

binding="customBinding" bindingConfiguration="customBinaryBinding"

contract="IdeaBlade.EntityModel.IEntityServiceContractAsync"

/>

<endpoint name="EntityServer"

address="../Services/EntityServer.svc"

binding="customBinding" bindingConfiguration="customBinaryBinding"

contract="IdeaBlade.EntityModel.IEntityServerContractAsync"

/>

<endpoint name="EntityServer.svc-NotificationService"

address="../Services/EntityServer.svc/sl-NotificationService"

binding="customBinding" bindingConfiguration="pollingDuplex"

contract="IdeaBlade.EntityModel.INotificationServiceAsync"

/>

</client>

<bindings>

<customBinding>

<!-- Custom binding using http, binary encoding, no security -->

<binding name="customBinaryBinding">

<binaryMessageEncoding/>

<httpTransport maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647" maxBufferSize="2147483647" />

</binding>

<!-- Simulates the PollingDuplexHttpBinding used by Push -->

<binding name="pollingDuplex">

<pollingDuplex duplexMode="MultipleMessagesPerPoll" inactivityTimeout="01:00:00"/>

<binaryMessageEncoding />

<httpTransport maxBufferSize="2147483647" maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647" transferMode="StreamedResponse"/>

</binding>

</customBinding>

</bindings>

</system.serviceModel>

</configuration>

Hello,
I'm facing a similar iussue under a WPF application... I've got a DomainModel splitted by Server/Client and I've added my watcher as shared link in order to use it with the WPF application...

the inner exception is

Caught exception: IdeaBlade.Core.IdeaBladeException: Unable to create the server delegate 'myProject.DomainModel.UserMessageWatcher, myProject.DomainModel.Client, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null.NewUserMessageService' ---> IdeaBlade.Core.IdeaBladeException: Unable to load type: myProject.DomainModel.UserMessageWatcher, myProject.DomainModel.Client, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null at IdeaBlade.Core.ReflectionFns.GetLatestType(String pTypeName, Boolean pThrowOnError, Boolean pIgnoreCase) at IdeaBlade.Core.ReflectionFns.GetDelegate[T](String pTypeName, String pMethodName, Type[] pSignature) at IdeaBlade.EntityModel.Server.NotificationServiceManager.Subscribe(SessionBundle sessionBundle, SubscribeWorkState workstate) --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at IdeaBlade.EntityModel.Server.NotificationServiceManager.Subscribe(SessionBundle sessionBundle, SubscribeWorkState workstate) at IdeaBlade.EntityModel.Server.EntityServer.Subscribe(SessionBundle sessionBundle, SubscribeWorkState workstate) at SyncInvokeSubscribe(Object , Object[] , Object[] ) at System.ServiceModel.Dispatcher.SyncMethodInvoker.Invoke(Object instance, Object[] inputs, Object[]& outputs) at System.ServiceModel.Dispatcher.DispatchOperationRuntime.InvokeBegin(MessageRpc& rpc) at System.ServiceModel.Dispatcher.ImmutableDispatchRuntime.ProcessMessage5(MessageRpc& rpc) at System.ServiceModel.Dispatcher.ImmutableDispatchRuntime.ProcessMessage41(MessageRpc& rpc) at System.ServiceModel.Dispatcher.ImmutableDispatchRuntime.ProcessMessage4(MessageRpc& rpc) at System.ServiceModel.Dispatcher.ImmutableDispatchRuntime.ProcessMessage31(MessageRpc& rpc) at System.ServiceModel.Dispatcher.ImmutableDispatchRuntime.ProcessMessage3(MessageRpc& rpc) at System.ServiceModel.Dispatcher.ImmutableDispatchRuntime.ProcessMessage2(MessageRpc& rpc) at System.ServiceModel.Dispatcher.ImmutableDispatchRuntime.ProcessMessage11(MessageRpc& rpc) at System.ServiceModel.Dispatcher.ImmutableDispatchRuntime.ProcessMessage1(MessageRpc& rpc) at System.ServiceModel.Dispatcher.MessageRpc.Process(Boolean isOperationContextSet)

Any help on this?
Thanks
