Answer 1

Is the web.config the same in both dev and on the server?

Answer 2

Apart from some server related settings which we use internally in our application rest all is same..

The only difference is its a virtual application with .net 4.0 in our web server and the Root website is in .net 2.0

Answer 3

That is probably your problem. .NET 4.0 is backwards compatible so the entire application should be in 4.0.

Answer 4

Everything is working fine excpet for silverlight thing so I dont thing its the version problem. what do u say ?

let me share u web.config so u can give better idea....

Answer 5

web.config from test web server. certain settings I removed which is just for internal purpose.

Answer 6

OK, I see from the web.config that you have 4.0 set so I misunderstood what you were saying about having the root set to 2.0. Are you using WCF RIA Services class libraries or is the DomainService in the main web project itself? This could also be happening if you are using a class library and the class library's dll is not in the bin folder.

Answer 7

We are using Silverlight with RIA services in our project and We dont have RIA services install on web server we just copied 2 dlls "System.ServiceModel.DomainServices.Hosting.dll" & "System.ServiceModel.DomainServices.Server.dll" in bin folder manually.

we are using web deployment proj to build the proj

Answer 8

Yes, I got that. The question is, where is the DomainService? Is in the main web application or in a separate class library?

Answer 9

sepertate class library....

Answer 10

Is the separate class library's dll in the bin folder? Does the web project have a reference to the class library?

Answer 11

yes the web project have a reference to the class library.

I hv set copy local to true for domain service related dll in the class library but it will not copy domain service related dlls to web application bin automatically.

Answer 12

Hi,

Try to follow this document to deploy the RIA service to your server:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff426912(VS.91).aspx

Answer 13

I find out that its not RIA services installation problem as it is working fine when I put code directly but when I do build with web deployment proj its giving me error.

Appreciate if you guys guide me on this....

Answer 14

Oh, been a long time since i saw that problem. For some reason, the web deployment project breaks WCF RIA Services. I don't know exactly why it does, but it does.

Answer 15

using fiddler I found out few things...difference between request (request of .svc file) of  code and deployment build...

Code:

Content type ='application/msbin1'

there is no download zip file for ria client dlls

deploy build:

Content type = 'text/html'

It also download zip file for ria client dlls

 

I am also not able to open .svc file through web path

Answer 16

Sorry, Jeff and I were looking at an old thread with the answer and forgot to get back to you. It looks like it is a problem with the precompiledapp.config, the old thread we were looking at is http://forums.silverlight.net/forums/t/186739.aspx. See if that information helps you and let me know.

Answer 17

sorry for replying late....Not tried what you said but I got a work around.....

When you build and deploy your RIA services website using web deployment project then you have to copy a dummy page with .svc extension file under "ClientBin" or create a folder "Services" and paste the file there.

The file name and path should be same what actually calling from the website in my case it was "Services/P1ServicesLibrary-Web-DashboardDomainService.svc" you can get this path via fiddler or in error itself.

I am not sure if any other solution is there but this worked for me.
