Hey guys quick one related to web services.

I came across this example by Chris and a fine article to explain some of the inner workings.

Long story short I added GetHandler to the module I've been messing with. Added relevant changes to web.config.

Try to enter http://portalaliase/svc/roles into the browser address bar and I get 404 error. What is going on say to myself.

Quick search revealed a lovely stackoverflow example based on the same topic. So, I should be doing things correctly.

From my understanding two modifications to the web.config file should have registered the service URL with DNN using my modules assembly name and namespace of GetHandler in both cases.

Now I am currently working on DNN v7.3.3 and this code was based on DNN v5 possibly v6 so there could be chance that things have changed. I am basing this on the fact that there was no <httpHandlers> node inside <system.web> node.

Does anyone have a bit more insight on this?

Or perhaps see what I missed?

Thanks for the info logpop. The example you liked helped me a lot when I was writing my first DNN module with service framework. But its not what I am after.

I had quite a bit of fun with Chris example today trying to get it to work for me. The only reason why I am trying to get this method to work is to see if I can use this example to tap into Office 365 REST APIs.

Back for another round this morning checking my code top to bottom. Everything is spot on.

web.config file is spot on. I even checked it against IHttpHandler as described in MSDN repository.

But I am still unable navigate to http://portalaliase/svc/roles. I can see the GET request in browser development tools but DNN responds with 404.

So, the question then becomes is it something that has been deprecated (considering that I am trying this on 7.3.3) or my code is not as "spot on" as I think it is !?

Anyone with a bit more knowledge on this topic?
