• HKEC v3 gives an error; v2 does not

  When I call CampaignManagement.GetCampaigns(..) and reference to v3 wsdls, I catch this error: "There is an error in XML document (1, 552)." If I change all the references to v2, it's smooth sailing. The context of the call itself is some of the very first I wrote and has worked countless times before. Why do you think there is a difference and what do you advise -Tal Peer, I too am recieving this sort of message when using the V3 API for CustomerManagement and the GetAccounts() method.

• Amos Soma Lock down device access using SSL?

  We have a customer requirement to enable Direct Push mail to a number of Vodafone supplied mobile devices We have an OWA cluster but currently we do NOT allow public access to the email server - this is done via an eGap solution Therefore we will have to create a public URL to allow these mobile devices to connect to the OWA server via HTTPS. However we dont want any device or browser or PDA to be able to access this device I understand that we will have to provide a signed SSL certificate on the OWA IIS boxes to allow secure encryption but Im assuming these wont restrict access to just the devices we want them to as they'll be from a trusted CA such as Verisign Which leaves us with the option of having to lock down access at t ...Show All

• MShetty adCenter API Production SSL Certificate Change February 21, 2007

  On February 21, 2007 at 7:00 P.M. Pacific time, the Microsoft adCenter API production environment will receive updated Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificates. This maintenance will take approximately 1 hour. The maintenance is necessary because the existing production SSL certificates are set to expire on February 23, 2007. We recommend that you do not run your adCenter API applications during the upgrade. After the upgrade, we believe that applications written in languages other than Java will not require any other action, but you should test your applications to make sure they work after the upgrade. There is no effect on the sandbox environment for this upgrade. If you are using Java, you must take the following action AFTER t ...Show All
