| | Help: Unable to serve XBAP from Apache? My webhost provider is running Apache. I have added the following custom mime types to the .htaccess file: AddType application/manifest .manifest AddType application/xaml+xml .xaml AddType application/x-ms-application .application AddType application/x-ms-xbap .xbap AddType application/octet-stream .deploy Yet, the xbap still seems to be streaming as xml instead of a binary (http://xamlxaml.com/examples/SmileyB...eyButton.xbap). The tech support keeps insisting that their server would need custom file handlers in addition to custom mime types, but all the information I've seen on serving xbap apps indicates only the mime types are needed to get this working. Anyone have any suggestions on getting this up and running? Any help would be much appreciated. Note: Oddly enough I can run this xbap correctly on the machine I developed the app on, which is running Vista, but my other two laptops running XP + ..NET 3.0 show it as an xml stream. Thanks! -M |

Your XBAP is served correctly as far as I can say. On my XP + June CTP machine, the Presentation host is started correctly. I cannot see the application because I don't have July CTP installed, but the start mechanism works flawlessly. I think that the problem is client-side.

| | Re: Help: Unable to serve XBAP from Apache? Odd. I uninstalled NET 3.0 and reinstalled it and it works fine for me too. However, I had other people with the same problem as myself. If anyone knows why this could happen give me a shout.

| | Re: Help: Unable to serve XBAP from Apache? You were correct. The problem was client-side. Uninstalling and reinstalling the July CTP fixed it. I wish I knew why it happened in the first place as there were other people who had the same problem.
