Basic Help Needed!

[CHiLL]

I'll check again in work tomorrow, but it certainly wasn't updating the XML file last time.

 

I'd consider trying to reinstall it, but I would probably miss all sorts of personalisation in the files.

[CHiLL]

What should the SIMS report outpul XML file be called? It's called Timetable.XML at the moment, as I'm sure that's what you've said. But above the import button within HAP, it states it must be called "sims-bookings.xml".

 

If I create it called sims-bookings.xml, I get the following error:

 

Server Error in '/HAP' Application.

It should now be called sims-bookings.xml, it was timetable, but that wasn't what the GUI was saying it wanted. Also timetable and timetables.xml were confusing.

[CHiLL]

Any thinking about the error I'm now facing?

[nickbro]

Will have a look tonight

[CHiLL]

I have upgraded to v7.7 and it has worked! It has imported all the lessons!

 

However, now it won't actually display them on the booking system, or any room. When I load the main BookingSystem, I get the following:

 

Internal Server Error

 

Firebug in Firefox is saying:

 

"NetworkError: 500 Internal Server Error - http://localhost/HAP/api/BookingSystem/LoadRoom/29-11-2011/L4

 

That error comes up once for every room, and it's always that date.

 

More specific in FireBug:

 

           Server Error in '/HAP' Application.

            Could not find a base address that matches scheme https for the endpoint with binding WebHttpBinding. Registered base address schemes are [http]. 

           

            Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

and

The exception message is: Could not find a base address that matches scheme https for the endpoint with binding WebHttpBinding. Registered base address schemes are [http

[nickbro]

Check in IIS that the bindings are correct.

[CHiLL]

By bindings, what do you mean?

[nickbro]

What ports/protocols IIS will use on your website

[CHiLL]

I'm only using standard http, as SSL isn't required (as we're only using this internally).

 

In the dubugging, it also says this:

 

An endpoint reference cycle was detected in your configuration. The following reference cycle must be removed: webHttpEndpoint/, webHttpEndpoint/. (C:\inetpub\wwwroot\HAP\web.config line 197)
  at System.ServiceModel.Description.ConfigLoader.LookupEndpoint(ServiceEndpointElement serviceEndpointElement, ContextInformation context, ServiceHostBase host, ServiceDescription description, Boolean omitSettingEndpointAddress)

[nickbro]

Follow the instructions the error message is giving you, remove webHttpEndpoint

[CHiLL]

Removing it doesn't help. Now I'm not getting any description in the errors. Just this:

Here's that section of code from ~\HAP\web.config.xml:

 

Line 197, which is where it says there's an error is:

[nickbro]

Try

[CHiLL]

It is working, but now I'm trying to deny access for specific groups of users in AD. I have only defined two groups:

 

 

The problem is, that students can also log in, even though they aren't defined. Their OU path is OU=Students,DC=christ,DC=local.

 

Also, what is the config to deny user from gaining access to certain areas? For example:

 

[nickbro]

[CHiLL]

Thanks, that's working.

 

My next step, now that I'm happy with the installation on my local machine, is to install it on our 2K8R2 server.

[CHiLL]

I'm having trouble on our Server 2008 R2 II7 trying to set it up. The server in question is a DC.

 

When I try to add permissions for the IIS AppPool\HAP, it doesn't exist. I cannot select Service Accounts from the local server, as the option for Service Accounts just isn't there.

 

Any ideas?

[nickbro]

see : Home Access Plus&#43

[nickbro]

HAP+ Runs best of a Terminal/Remote Desktop Server. It tends to not like DC's as they don't allow everyone to have interactive Logon Rights

[CHiLL]

So you're saying the server it's on needs to allow normal staff members log on rights onto it? That won't happen for us, regardless of what the server is, only domain admins have logon rights to servers.

 

Unfortunately we don't have any IIS 7 servers that aren't DCs. I've been having trouble putting it on IIS 6.

[nickbro]

It should work under Basic Auth mode. It's Forms Auth that needs Interactive Rights

[CHiLL]

Sorry, that may have been me being a naive and not thinking it through. Will look into it tomorrow.

[CHiLL]

Got it working!

 

Nick, you're a genius!
