Hi All,
i have just written my first Webservice and client(windows form) but when i
try to get a web references to the client to generate the proxy class on the
client, i get an error this specifically :

The proxy settings on this computer are not configured correctly for web
discovery. Click the Help button for more information.

in the add Web references dialog

this is the error displayed on the browser:

Server Error in '/WebService1' Application
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Parser Error
Description: An error occurred during the parsing of a resource required to
service this request. Please review the following specific parse error
details and modify your source file appropriately.

Parser Error Message: Could not create type 'WebService1.HugeInteger'.

Source Error:

Line 1:  <%@ WebService Language="c#" Codebehind="HugeInteger.asmx.cs"
Class="WebService1.HugeInteger" %>



Source File: c:\inetpub\wwwroot\WebService1\HugeInteger.asmx    Line: 1

now i clicked on the proxy help which directedme to go to the LAN settings
in the internet explorer browser. now in the LAN settings i am supposed to
tick the 'use proxy' and set a proxy address and a port...for my ISP, but
here come the silly part
I am using BroadBand more specifically BTBroadBand and i have contacted them
and they have told me they dont use Proxy Servers...that BroadBand does not
use Proxy servers! so what am i supposed to do ?
can anyone please help this is really annoying!

p.s my webservice is actually located on my local machine i.e
http://localhost.

regards

Make sure localhost is in your exclude list.

Hi chad by exclude list you mean the exception section in the advanced
section of the proxy server (using internet explorer 6)? i also ticked the
'use a proxy server for your LAN (These settings wiil not apply to dial-up or
VPN connections).' checkbox ...do i tick the 'ByPass proxy server for local
addresses' checkbox? or not?

Yes check that too, but it doesnt consdier 127 or localhost a local address,
so you have to add them. :(

Hi Chad
i have ticked both Checkboxes under the proxy settings and added my
localhost to the exception..but i am not sure what address i should use under
the proxy address and the port although i am fairly sure that the port
listening is port 80?

It appears you are totally confused on what these options are... the default
address has nothing to do with a proxy.

Chad, that was a side question...the real question there was what do i set
the proxy address and port to? after i add my local host to my
exceptions...cos that is the address & port which the proxy needs for acceses

It depends on your network. Its like asking what the name of your mail server
is.

Well you have to ask them. I use CYTANet. Can you tell me what my proxy is
supposed to be?
