Modify the Cobra.WinUI.Exe.Config File
Modify the Cobra.WinUI.exe.config file on the Cobra client workstation to use netTcpBinding.
To edit the Cobra.WinUI.exe.config file, complete the following steps:
- Navigate to the Cobra installation folder.
- Locate the Cobra.WinUI.exe.config file and open it using a text editor (such as Notepad).
-
Change the configuration file settings to conform to the protocol required by the Cobra application server.
- Change the address protocol value for each endpoint from http to net.tcp.
- Change the binding value for each endpoint from customBinding to netTcpBinding.
- Change the binding configuration value for each endpoint from compressedBinaryBinding to WindowsClientOverTcp.
- Uncomment the netTcpBinding section.
- Change the netTcpBinding security mode from Message to Transport or from Transport to Message. Transport level authentication provides faster performance than Message level authentication.
- Uncomment the identity tag on both endpoints.

-
If the client installation runs on Windows XP, verify that
maxconnection is set to
8. Uncomment the
system.net tag on both endpoints.
Before <!--<system.net>
<connectionManagement>
<add address="*" maxconnection="8" />
</connectionManagement>
</system.net>-->
After <system.net>
<connectionManagement>
<add address="*" maxconnection="8" />

Note: You must perform this procedure on each client workstation that connects to the Cobra application server.
