Under the Batch Service option, we are running a custom dot net activity, and that .net tool downloads data from some APIs. It was working fine without any issues until yesterday. Now we are facing the below error while downloading data from the APIs. I don't know why we are facing such an issue suddenly.
Error: The request was aborted: Could not create SSL/TLS secure
channel. StackTrace: at System.Net.WebClient.OpenRead(Uri address)
at Import.DownloadSite(String url, String type)
The same .Net tool works fine in our local desktop machines(Windows 10 OS). Getting the error only in the batch account machine. So I think the problem is in the batch account machine.
Using the below C# code for downloading data from the APIs:
WebClient wc = new WebClient();
ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Tls12 | SecurityProtocolType.Tls11 | SecurityProtocolType.Tls | SecurityProtocolType.Ssl3;
return wc.DownloadString(string.Format(ApiUrl, type));
I tried most of the solutions suggested in the below link, and nothing works for me.
The request was aborted: Could not create SSL/TLS secure channel
More information:
.NET Framework: v4.5
Batch machine: Windows Server 2012 R2 (x64)
You need to Add HTTP Header "Expect" with value "100-continue". In your case, please add these lines of code before creating the request :
ServicePointManager.Expect100Continue = true;
ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Tls
| SecurityProtocolType.Tls11
| SecurityProtocolType.Tls12
| SecurityProtocolType.Ssl3;
Short error description:
Ms.Dynamics.Performance.CreateUsers.exe from PerfSDK throws error
There was no endpoint listening at https://mytest.sandbox.operations.dynamics.com/Services/AxUserManagement/Service.svc/ws2007FedHttp that could accept the message.
Long error description:
I have created a single user C# test from an XML recording and run it with PerfSDK successfully as described in the first part of the PerfSDK and multiuser testing with Visual Studio Online guide.
I am having trouble running multiuser load tests as described in the second part of the lab. The link above seems to be the only resource online describing how a multiuser test can be created from a singleuser test and how Visual Studio Online can be used to run it in a sandbox environment. I've also watched a few videos such as Tools to Measure and Improve Microsoft Dynamics AX Performance, Performance Tools and the like, but none of them explains all the steps that need to be taken in as much detail as the above article.
I've done the following:
Created a recording of a scenario with Task Recorder in Dynamics 365
for Operations.
Created C# perf test from recording in Visual Studio using the
PerfSDKSample project from the PerfSDK folder.
Followed all 'Steps to run single user performance test with Perf
SDK' from the article;
Built the solution and successfully ran my test from Test Explorer:
Internet Explorer opened starting and replaying the scenario that I
had recorded.
Note: I used DEV environment usnconeboxax1aos.cloud.onebox.dynamics.com for testing. When I tried using another hostname in CloudEnvironment.Config (a sandbox, e.g. mysandbox.sandbox.operations.dynamics.com), the singleuser test failed with the following error message:
System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'MS.Dynamics.TestTools.CloudCommonTestUtilities.Authentication.UserManagement' threw an exception. ---> System.ServiceModel.EndpointNotFoundException: There was no endpoint listening at https://mysandbox.sandbox.operations.dynamics.com/Services/AxUserManagement/Service.svc/ws2007FedHttp that could accept the message. This is often caused by an incorrect address or SOAP action. See InnerException, if present, for more details. ---> System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found..
For multiuser testing, I launched Visual Studio from Visual Studio
Online portal https://app.vssps.visualstudio.com/profile/view
I modified the TestSetup method as follows:
Single-user TestSetup:
public void TestSetup()
{
SetupData();
_userContext = new UserContext(UserManagement.AdminUser);
Client = DispatchedClient.DefaultInstance;
Client.ForceEditMode = false;
Client.Company = "GB01";
Client.Open();
}
Multi-user TestSetup:
public void TestSetup()
{
var testroot = System.Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("DeploymentDir");
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(testroot))
{
testroot = System.IO.Directory.GetCurrentDirectory();
}
Environment.SetEnvironmentVariable("testroot", testroot);
if (this.TestContext != null)
{
timerProvider = new TimerProvider(this.TestContext);
}
SetupData();
_userContext = new UserContext(UserManagement.AdminUser);
Client = new DispatchedClientHelper().GetClient();
Client.ForceEditMode = false;
Client.Company = "GB01";
Client.Open();
}
I set the HostName in CloudEnvironment.Config to the sandbox URL e.g. mysandbox.sandbox.operations.dynamics.com.
Logged in to the sandbox machine and installed the certificate I had generated earlier for the single-user testing.
Updated wif.config on the sandbox machine in the same way it had been updated in DEV earlier, and restarted IIS.
Double-clicked vsonline.testsettings in Solution Explorer and used the settings recommended in the above article (accordingly modified for my certificate and test scenario).
Opened SampleLoadTest.loadtest from Solution Explorer and tweaked it to use only my test in the Test Mix node, reduced test duration and user count.
Run the load test.
The load test ended with a few errors. The first TestError is the same as mentioned above:
Initialization method MS.Dynamics.Performance.Application.TaskRecorder.GenJnlBase.TestSetup threw exception. System.TypeInitializationException: System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'MS.Dynamics.TestTools.CloudCommonTestUtilities.Authentication.UserManagement' threw an exception. ---> System.ServiceModel.EndpointNotFoundException: There was no endpoint listening at https://mysandbox.sandbox.operations.dynamics.com/Services/AxUserManagement/Service.svc/ws2007FedHttp that could accept the message. This is often caused by an incorrect address or SOAP action. See InnerException, if present, for more details. ---> System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found..
Finally, even though I was able to run Ms.Dynamics.Performance.CreateUsers.exe on my DEV machine successfully (a number of test AX users were created in usnconeboxax1aos.cloud.onebox.dynamics.com), when the sandbox environment URL was set in CloudEnvironment.Config, Ms.Dynamics.Performance.CreateUsers.exe failed with same error:
C:\PerfSDK>Ms.Dynamics.Performance.CreateUsers.exe 3 GB01
Failed with the following error:
System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'MS.Dynamics.TestTools.CloudCommonTestUtilities.Authentication.UserManagement' threw an exception. ---> System.ServiceModel.EndpointNotFoundException: There was no endpoint listening at https://mytest.sandbox.operations.dynamics.com/Services/AxUserManagement/Service.svc/ws2007FedHttp that could accept the message.

As per the walkthrough,
If you have an ARR-enabled environment, i.e. you have 2 endpoints like
this:
apr-arr8aossoap.axcloud.test.dynamics.com
apr-arr8aos.axcloud.test.dynamics.com
You would need to enter both endpoints in CloudEnvironment.Config
The no endpoint listening error can be resolved by specifying correct SOAP hostname, e.g.
<ExecutionConfigurations Key="HostName" Value="mysandbox.sandbox.operations.dynamics.com" />
<ExecutionConfigurations Key="SoapHostName" Value="mysandboxaossoap.sandbox.operations.dynamics.com" />
I got an "500 Internal Server Error - An error occurred while starting the application" after deploying my application: https://iidapp.azurewebsites.net/
I keep finding the following error message but I am unable to find out on msdn websites any information describing how I can specify the SAS URL
INFO: The app was working for a long period and I didn't have to set the SAS URL; I wonder why suddenly Azure is generating exceptions
INFO2: the app works perfectly on my local machine
Any help is welcomed as I couldn't find any solution by reading the related topics on stackoverflow

An error was triggered by W3SVC-WP : {app name}02000780
I found out on eventid that the code 02000780 meant that a file was missing
I eventually found out that it was possible to log further information by enabling the stdoulog inside the web.config. Read When a .NET Core Azure App Service won’t start: 502.5 Process Failure
I opened the debug console and found out that a directory wasn't found https://{app_id}.scm.azurewebsites.net/DebugConsole
Voilà! I corrected the code and the app is up and running!
I am trying to execute this command from a web application on sourceServer:
var mgr = ServerManager.OpenRemote(destServer)
but I receive this error:
UnAuthorized access wth a detail error: "Retrieving the COM class factory for remote component with CLSID {2B72133B-3F5B-4602-8952-803546CE3344} from machine failed due to the following error: 80070005"
I have full administrative rights on both servers.
I can issue that command from a console application no problem, but when I try it from the web application, I get the error!
I have tried enabling the remote management checkbox and started teh remote access auto connection manager and also tried updating the load user profile on the applicaiton pool from false to true.
I have searched so much to the point that all of my links are pink in color!
Any input is greatly appreciated.
I've decided to ditch the use of ServerManager.OpenRemote() and use the DirectoryEntry way:
DirectoryEntry root = new DirectoryEntry("IIS://server/W3SVC", username, password)
it is much simpler and straightforward.
I'm running into a problem with getting SSL to work in the Development Fabric. I'm running a clean install of Windows 8 Pro with Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate and the October 2012 Azure SDK for .NET. IIS8 is not installed, only IIS Express, which claims to support HTTPS so I'm hoping that's not the issue.
Running VS 12 as administrator, I've created a blank VS solution, added a new (.NET 4.5) cloud service with a new ASP.NET MVC 4 Internet web application project, and hit F5. Everything works fine. Then, when I add an SSL certificate to the web role and replace the HTTP endpoint (port 80) with an HTTPS endpoint (port 443, with the certificate), hitting F5 produces the following error message:
Windows Azure Tools for Microsoft Visual Studio
There was an error attaching the debugger to the role instance 'deployment18(32).WindowsAzureCloudService.Mvc4WebRole_IN_0' with Process Id: 4892'. Unable to attach. Access is denied.
Note, the last part ("Access is denied") comes in a few variations, a particularly pleasant one being "Catastrophic failure". :)
The only message in the VS Output window ('General' output) is:
Windows Azure Tools: Warning: Remapping private port 443 to 444 in role 'Mvc4WebRole' to avoid conflict during emulation.
The Compute Emulator UI is not much help; just before the instance disappears, this is the only console output that I get consistently (sometimes other messages appear, but sporadically every few runs; I'm not sure how to capture these):
[fabric] Role Instance: deployment18(33).WindowsAzureCloudService.Mvc4WebRole.0
[fabric] Role state Unknown
[fabric] Role state Suspended
[fabric] Role state Busy
[fabric] Role state Unhealthy
[fabric] Role state Stopped
The certificate was obtained from a CA and properly imported into the Local Machine/Personal/Certificates store as a .pfx with private key, extended properties, and marked as exportable, for what it's worth.
When I attempt to publish the service to Azure, I get one build (validation) warning about the database connection string (which I assume is irrelevant):
The connection string 'DefaultConnection' is using a local database '(LocalDb)\v11.0' in project 'Mvc4WebRole'. This connection string will not work when you run this application in Windows Azure. To access a different database, you should update the connection string in the web.config file.
Probably more important, the deployment actually fails with the following history in the Windows Azure Activity Log window:
9:00:25 AM - Warning: There are package validation warnings.
9:00:25 AM - Preparing deployment for WindowsAzureCloudService - 1/3/2013 8:59:55 AM with Subscription ID '<...>' using Service Management URL 'https://management.core.windows.net/'...
9:00:25 AM - Connecting...
9:00:26 AM - Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
9:00:26 AM - Deployment failed with a fatal error
Can someone help me troubleshoot this issue? I've rebooted a few times. ;)
Thanks in advance!
EDIT (Jan. 3, 4:44 PM): I have a few ideas that might help me make progress, but some are pretty drastic so any advice would be appreciated:
Is there a way to capture all the output from the Compute Emulator (Dev Fabric) to a log file so I can review it? (System.Diagnostic.Trace calls from my service won't help, since I don't even get as far as the RoleEntryPoint when using HTTPS!) I figured this out; see next edit.
That null pointer exception during the Azure deployment has me worried. Is it worthwhile to try reinstalling the Azure SDK, and if so, how should I go about doing a clean install of it?
Has anyone seen a problem of this sort disappear when switching to using full IIS for the emulator? (That seems unlikely since IIS vs. IIS Express should have no relevance to the Azure deployment.)
EDIT (Jan. 4, 10:15 AM): Bad news: I tried the suggestion to grant Read access to the certificates, but it didn't help in my case. Good news: I managed to capture one of those sporadic messages in the Compute Emulator UI before it shut down; it was a bit of info from some diagnostics. Not helpful in and of itself, but it revealed where the Development Fabric was storing its temporary files:
[Diagnostics] Information: C:\Users\Lars\AppData\Local\dftmp\Resources\0005155d-4592-40f4-812e-18793b26576c\directory\DiagnosticStore\Monitor
The GUID portion gets recreated for every deployment, and it is deleted when the deployment goes away (as it always does in my case). But in the parent directory ('dftmp'), there are a few helpful directories that I then monitored during a new deployment: DevFCLogs, DFAgentLogs, and IISConfiguratorLogs. I guess that answers the first question I had yesterday! :)
DFAgentLogs\DFAgent.log: (41KB) No useful information. A bunch of "Failure to read pipe" messages and failures to get the role/deployment instance ID, which I assume are just noise.
DevFCLogs\DevFabric--2013.01.04--<...>.log: (510 KB) No useful information. I skimmed the file and also searched for 'error', 'failure', 'not found', 'certificate', and 'Mvc4WebRole_IN_0'; none of those showed any hints of what was going on.
IISConfiguratorLogs\IISConfigurator.log: (6 KB) Now we're making progress!! :) Can someone tell me what this means? (In the meantime, I'm off ILSpy-hunting... fun fun...)

EDIT (Jan. 4, 11 AM): ILSpy wasn't much help; the exception is being thrown at an interop point (we knew that already) while trying to get the hash of a certificate in order to set up the binding (we knew that too). Does anyone know what COM object would need to be registered in order to get a certificate hash for a binding in Microsoft.Web.Administration? Or how I could intercept the interop call to find out? Bonus points if you can tell me why this is happening in the first place. :)
I've had similar problem on two computers. On both cases installing IIS solved the problem.
It seems to be enough to just install the IIS (via add/remove Windows components). You don't need to start using it. The installation changes something and after that my IIS Express started working again with HTTPS from Visual Studio.
There is a discussion on similar issue on MSDN Social:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/nl-NL/windowsazuredevelopment/thread/ad362016-16f6-459a-8022-9307aa5f910e
And the issue has been also raised on Microsoft connect:
https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/details/758533
In my case the error in the log files was:
IISConfigurator Information: 0 : [00007644:00000007, 2013.01.17
00:39:18.523] Exception:System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException
(0x800401F3): Invalid class string (Exception from HRESULT: 0x800401F3

I found the log files from C:\Users\\AppData\Local\dftmp\IISConfiguratorLogs directory.
When running locally with a private key cert for SSL, you'll need to give the user the emulator app is running under access to the private key. Open mmc.exe and add the Certificates >> Local Computer Snap-In to view your certificate. Right Click on the certificate, then All Tasks >> Manage Private Keys - then add IUSR and Network Service with at least read access.
For deployment to azure, you'll need to upload the certificate to the Cloud Service and make sure the certificate is valid for the domain.
