Hi,

 

I am trying to follow what it takes to fix the WSTrust issues 

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/developer/common-data-service/authenticate-office365-deprecation

 

According to this, the only chg needs to be done is:

**

If your code is using CrmServiceClient with the “Office365” authentication type:

An example of this is a connections string that looks like this:

connectionString = "AuthType=Office365;Username=jsmith@contoso.onmicrosoft.com;Password=passcode;Url=https://contoso.crm.dynamics.com"

Similarly, you could also use a CrmServiceClient constructor and pass in AuthType.Office365.

You have two options for dealing with this.

 

***

In my code after above fix, while the compile is fine, during runtime, this is tossing this error in the "new CrmServiceClient(connectionString)"

==> Error while connecting to CRM Could not load file or assembly 'System.Web.Services, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a'. The system cannot find the file specified.

 

Any idea what I need to do to fix this?  Thanks.

    Hi Johnny

     

    I am facing exact same issue.

     

    I took the all latest nugate packages.. can you please mention which package you are referring ?

     

    The Azure function throws following error if i run from Azure function

    Could not load file or assembly 'System.Web.Services, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a'. The system cannot find the file specified.

    Hi,

     

    This item is closed.    The root cause of this is we had corrupted the VS nuget.   We started debugging with just a console app, got it running.     Then we created an azure function (this is where our code actually runs) and added / updated the nuget as needed to match our current azure function. 

     

    Thanks everyone.
