Environment.Connect() throws 404

Question

I'm following the tutorial "Walkthrough DotNETToolkit.doc" and get an exception when calling Environment.Connect().  Here's the stack trace; there's no InnerException:

   at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.GetResponse()
   at Microsoft.Web.Clients.HttpClient.GetOrHead(String verb, Uri uri, SyndicationOperationContext context)
   at Microsoft.Web.Clients.HttpClient.Get(Uri uri, SyndicationOperationContext context)
   at Microsoft.Web.Clients.AtomPubClient.ReadServiceDocument[TDocument](Uri serviceDocumentUrl, SyndicationOperationContext context)
   at Microsoft.Web.Clients.AtomPubClient.ReadServiceDocument(Uri serviceDocumentUrl, SyndicationOperationContext context)
   at Microsoft.LiveFX.Client.Mesh.ConnectHelper(LiveOperatingEnvironment service, Uri meshUrl, LiveItemAccessOptions options)
   at Microsoft.LiveFX.Client.LiveOperatingEnvironment.ConnectHelper(SyndicationOperationContext context, Uri serviceUrl, LiveItemAccessOptions options)
   at Microsoft.LiveFX.Client.LiveOperatingEnvironment.Connect(String authToken, AuthenticationTokenType tokenType, Uri serviceUrl, LiveItemAccessOptions options)
   at MyPhotos.MyPhotos.Connect_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e) in C:\Users\(me)\Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Projects\MyPhotos\MyPhotos\Form1.cs:line 55

If I enter an incorrect user name or password I get a different exception so I know I've entered my password correctly.  How should I go about debugging?  My uri is https://user-ctp.windows.net

Answer 1

This is a Live Framework problem. I'm moving it to Live Framework forum. Have you activated your Live ID by creating a project on the portal? I just tried to create a new Live ID, and use that Live ID to connect to mesh, and I got the same 404. You have to go to https://lx.azure.microsoft.com/Cloud/Provisioning/Default.aspx to create a Live Framework project before trying to connect to mesh. Click "New Project", and then "Activate your Live Framework CTP Account".
