MB7 Web Service "You are currently not logged into the MediaBin server"

Hello,
I am trying to insert an asset into MediaBin by calling it through the web service from a .NET application. However I am getting a server error back that says "You are currently not logged into the MediaBin server".

I added a web reference to the MB web service, Visual Studio generated the proxy SoapHttpClientProtocol class (called VirageMediaBinServer), and I am calling it with the following code:


using (var client = new VirageMediaBinServer()) {
 return client.MBContainer_InsertFile(assetUncPath, "Test Asset", null, null, 850);
}

I've also tried adding a call to MBSession_LogOnCurrentUser(), and that call succeeds but the MBContainer_InsertFile call still fails. I've also tried methods other than MBContainer_InsertFile (e.g. MBSession_GetMBObject) and they fail as well.

Does anybody have any ideas?

Thanks

Check your MediaBin web service and user credentials which you are passing through the code to connect the MediaBin server. Also try to use the default code provided by the Interwoven and it will have both the versions(Java/.Net).

I ran into that same thing. The problem is that the login token is returned as a cookie that you need to maintain. The default settings for the web service connection doesn't store cookies. So you need to make it do that. Luckily, it is very easy:

VirageMediaBinServer ws = new VirageMediaBinServer();
ws.CookieContainer = new CookieContainer();

so, in your case (right before the return):

client.CookieContainer = new CookieContainer();

That should be it (at least it was for me).

Good luck!

Thanks Matt! The following code worked for me:


using (var client = new VirageMediaBinServer()) {
 client.CookieContainer = new CookieContainer();
 client.MBSession_LogonCurrentUser();
 return client.MBContainer_InsertFile(pathToMediaFile, mediaName, null, null, 850);
}
