Nav web services appear to "block" with any exception

dbdp

I am making use of web services for several functions from windows phone (using c# ).

Under normal circumstances it all works very well.

BUT

If an error occurs, say when posting (an invalid field or something) I can no longer use the web services. It's like they block and I get "The User ID and Password are Invalid. Try again."

This can only be solved by pasting the web service link in a browser, which seems to 'Un Block' them, and then it will work again.

What is going on? Any ideas?

ANy ideas at all on this?

Let me understand this correctly

You have a Windows Phone application that connects to NAV Webservices and accesses a service.
If there is an exception throws on some operation, the Windows Phone app no longer works and gives you a authentication exception.
But, after accessing the same service on IE or any other browser, the services starts to work again.

Is that right?

Are you using NTLM or SPNEGO on the service tier? We are having this issue at a client, but it started when we had to set the authentication to NTLM for a WMS vendor's integration. MSFT support is aware of the issue, but I'd like to let them know someone else is having the issue.
