dotnet web services : Checkbox Disabled: Enable Microsoft Web Services Enhancements SOAP Protocol Factory

I'm trying to convert my DIME Web Service (WSE 2.0) to use MTOM (WSE 3.0).
All the literature I'm reading specifies that I'll need to check both:

Enable this project for Web Services Enhancements
and
Enable Microsoft Web Services Enhancements SOAP Protocol Factory.

On the WSE 3.0 configuration dialog. But the second box is disabled and
unchecked. I spun up a brand new Web Services project and the checkbox is
disabled.

Why? Since the instructions specify to check this, how is this going to
affect me if I can't?

Thanks!

Joe,

I'm having the same problem! Did you manage to get to the bottom of it?

I'm developing a web service and want to use WSE 3 but I'm getting this
issue for the asp.net project (and any other asp.net projects that I
create).

I've installed SP1 for VS2005 by the way, don't know if it could be
anything to do with that. I've also installed WSCF.

The WSE settings tool seems to think that the project is not an asp.net
project because after checking the top checkbox on the General tab it
creates an app.config file and adds the settings into that rather than
into the web.config!?

Cheers,

Same here....I cannot believe that there are not more people
encountering this issue. Can we get some official word???

Hey Guys, I found the following post that explains a work-around:

If you launch the WSE 3.0 via the start menu shortcut rather than from
within the IDE, it will allow you to generate a config file that you
can save to your project folder.

Thanks for that.
I've just been editing my web.config manually since, but its nice to
know anyway, cheers!
