How to Implement Domain SSL Access to WCF Service by JSONP (3)

JSONP is always a popular way to use the open policy of SCRIPT HTML element to implement the cross-domain access by a lot of developers. However, most of their knowledge blogs are just the segments of one of the integrated solutions. In this article, we will introduce a whole integrated solution to implement the cross-domain access to WCF Service in SharePoint Site Collection by HTTPS protocol. We have introduced the WCF service configuration. And the WCF application was ready. In this paragraph, we will start to deploy our across domain web service application on IIS.

After finishing coding, we can deploy the service on one IIS server. There’s something we need pay attention to when we deploy the WCF service for cross-domain access. There is a little difference between the Website deployment and Website application deployment.

A. Website Creation

         a) New Website and choose HTTPS schema and credential.

        b) Test Settings by clicking the ‘Test Settings’ button in the above dialog.

If you find the authorization error like the diagram 4-2 shows, you need to edit the application workspace folder permission as the diagram 4-3 shows.

        c) Set Authentication

At final, we need to update the authentication for Website as the Authentication & Credential section mentioned. For windows authentication, we should only enable windows authentication in the IIS Website authentication setting center as diagram 4-4 shows.

B. Web Site Application Creation

The website application creation has a little difference from the website creation.

       a) Check the hosted website binding settings.

The hosted website should be bound to HTTPS schema. If not, you should edit the binding to support HTTPS. You can right click the website and click ‘Edit Binding’ button in the context menu. Then you will see the binding schema of the website as the diagram 4-5 shows.

        b) Check the duplicate configuration option of a website.

To find the duplicate configuration option by comparing the Web.config file of a website to the Web.config file of the target site application program. IIS doesn’t allow the duplicate configuration in the website and its sub-application configuration file. For an example, if the cross-domain configuration is existed on the hosted website, you should remove it in its sub-application configuration file as the diagram 4-6 shows.
