Hi,

I have been successfully using Silverlight RIA Services apps for some time with DNN up to version 5.5.1.

I just upgraded my DNN on one site to 5.6.1 and now cannot log in to my SL app.

It uses code published way back over a year ago by a number of sources, where we add DotNetNuke authentication to the RIA 'AuthenticationService' class. This has worked VERY well for a long time now.

After upgrading to DNN 5.6.1 however, I now get a 404 error returned from the server whenever I try to connect to my 'AuthenticationService.svc'.

My best guess is that something has changed in the DNN web.config which is preventing my svc from being found ?? - like its now being blocked ??

I have had to revert my code back to 5.5.1 to get it to work again.

Can anyone pls advise what might have changed in this release to affect this capability ??.

NB I am using Silverlight 4 - with Framework 4 - so had to add in 'runtimeVersionv2.0' to many of the lines in Web.Config to make this work in 5.5.1.

Many Thanks

Best regards

Graham

Hi Westa,

Thanks for the reply. The code is pretty standard microsoft code - based on RIA Web Services - and the service gets built into the main server-side dll - which normally just gets dropped into the Bin folder - where most BIN files should exist ???.

So DNN Guys - is there any advice from the DNN team as to why this is broken in this release and how rto fix it ??.

Thanks

Graham

Bill, I've just found your post and think you might be able to help.

I've developed a SL app using the CodeEndeavors project template and am trying to get this to talk to WCF RIA Services I've created that has my tables (in the DNN db) modelled in an EntityFramework.

If I test this OUTSIDE of DNN and let the module run in a test page, the app works and I can retrieve data via the Service and EF.
However, when the module is plugged into DNN, it won't connect to the RIA Services at all and won't retrieve data.

I get this error (below) but all projects and DNN are targeting .Net 4 as well as Silverlight 4.0

Message: Unhandled Error in Silverlight 2 Application Load operation failed for query 'GetCategory'. The remote server returned an error: NotFound.   at System.ServiceModel.DomainServices.Client.OperationBase.Complete(Exception error)
   at System.ServiceModel.DomainServices.Client.LoadOperation.Complete(Exception error)

I will say I do not have a .svc file in the WCF RIA Services project but have set up DomainServices with metadata too.

So, reading you post prompted me into think I've got this all wrong so need to be pointed in the right direction.

Please let enlighten me on setting up any RIA Services project in DNN so that SL modules can connect to it.
I'm sure many could do with same said advice...

Thanks
