Directory server xmlendpointutility.exe error

asked on January 30, 2019

I attempted to edit the  Approved security token services field. I saved.. closed the app. and now when I open it, I get this error. If I try to edit the value and save.. there is no response from the app

 

Do I need to set the values in this utility ? or was it only used for set up of LFDS ?

 

We currently only use ActiveDirectory for an identity Provider and have no STS sites or SAML

 

thanks !

Hi Ryan,

It seems that the hostname you used in that field might have mistakenly been entered incorrectly, as XmlEndpointUtility cannot parse it. Do you believe this to be the case?

If so, try opening LFDS.exe.config (in the same directory as the utility) with a text editor of your choice. I recommend you save a backup of this file before you begin editing. In this configuration file, you will find a line that reads:

<add key="TrustedPasswordResetHandlers" value="https://host.domain.com:port/lfdssts/ResetPassword" />

Where host, domain, and port correspond to your values. You can change the host, domain, and port (default 443) here to your intended ones, and save the file.

Once the host, domain, and port values are correctly set and the file has been saved, XmlEndpointUtility should work properly again.
