I am working on a project that is click-once deployed from an IIS 7.5 web server. After installing the parent application (i.e. setting up the IIS site) I am able to hit the url for the click-once app's config file from a remote box.
HOWEVER, when I attempt to do the same thing from my app (and the stub app below), I get a 401 Unauthorized.
What is the difference between hitting the URL from IE, and from a .NET app?
The file and directory itself have full control granted to everyone on the webserver at the moment, and I am an admin on the box. We are using Windows Authentication with NTLM only.
Thanks, -Bob
Here is the stub app that produces the 401 - Unauthorized when on the doc.Load() line. I can hit the same URL successfully from IE and open the file...
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Console.WriteLine("Config Test");
string filename = "http://dev-rs/myClient/myClickOnce/myApp.config.xml";
Console.WriteLine(filename);
XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
doc.Load(filename);
Console.WriteLine("Loaded");
Console.WriteLine("Inner Text : " + doc.InnerText);
}
