I am trying to deploy a wcf service. I have created a simple service, basically I have created a new wcf service and tried to deploy it however I get this error
The type 'WCF_Application.Service1', provided as the Service attribute value in the ServiceHost directive, or provided in the configuration element system.serviceModel/serviceHostingEnvironment/serviceActivations could not be found.
I am trying to deploy my service to a subdomain like
https://services.mydomain.com/business
we have a situation where we need to host two certificates on the same server and because we can't have two different certificates on the same server running off the same port we have assigned one certificate run through another port, which is 4443.
So the URL to our web app is now....
[URL]
If I punch this into a web browser I can access it fine, however, if I create a web reference using this URL in Visual Studio (2005) it can create the web reference fine and it builds ok. But whenever I call a web method on this service instance I get a HTTP 404 page not found Exception.
Is there any properties I need to set on the web service object to get this to work? I'm confused as to why it's not working.
I created a WCF Service Library and there're 2 services (http endpoint and https endpoint) in the App.cofig file. The WCF Service Host had not problem to host the http endpoint but failed to host the https endpoint with these messages:
WCF Service Host cannot find any metadata. Additional Info: The service cannot be started. This service has no endpoint defined. Please add at least one endpoint for the service in config file and try again.
I am developing an application with WCF services. The basic functionaloty of a screen is to provide an entry screen to add particular entity. Once save even fired It will save the data to the database and call the bind method to bind into the grid by refreshing the latest data.
When I am running the site from my source (Visual Studio) , it works perfectly. When the client calls method to fetch the data the WCF service, it returns latest (added) data. But the issue comes in the server when it works with IIS. I deployed the code in the server, once the data added I am getting the old data only. But after two refresh I am getting the latest data.
what required to be done to get the latest record.
Ok so I am trying to setup a WCF web service. I thought I had my .svc and webConfig ready to go, but when I hit this service all I get is a blank page.
I'm using a web service and I want to return a list to my client. I am nearly newby at web services and I can't return a List<String> object to my client. But when i call the method it says "Unable to cast object of type 'System.Collections.Generic.List`1[System.String]' to type 'System.String[]'" What should I do?
I've been reading quite a few tutorials on web services and xml files and one thing isn't quite clear to me. If I want to create an XML file on the fly the tutorials are pretty straight forward but, I want to grab an existing XML file from the web server and return the whole thing. Do I need to read the XML file and send each individual node or is there a way to send the file all at once? The tutorials imply that the whole file could be a node but I'm not clear on what that entails or if it would work. Also do you have a link to an example?
I Need by service contract to return the xml/json result depending on the request type. function which will convert my result set (i am using linq to sql) so that i do not need to create the xml format for the result set by iterating through the table row many times.What is the suitable way to do that.
I need a kind of short cut method which will convert the table data to xml result.Had i been using asp.net mvc i would have been able to generate the xml data by overriding the the ExecuteResult method in the ActionResult and giving Conetnt-Type = "text/xml" as OP.But since i am using Wcf i don't have the controller context(as controller context is the parameter that needs to be passed to Execute Result).
My present code for converting the table data to the xml format is below.
public XDocument UsersLists(string authToken) { bool IsAuthenticated = Authenticate(authToken); XDocument xDoc = new XDocument(); XElement root = new XElement("Users");
[Code]....
I need to eliminate this way of generating xml for each table records.
I am keep getting an error that "Service Error : wbsTest failed" where wbsTest is my webservice.
The error comes up frequently enough for the user - normally reproducible within a minute or so of working with an application.
A bit of background: An user is a remote user accessing application hosted on our servers over https. He is software firewalled and his connection isn't the fastest but it is responsive enough. When errors do not present themselves, page loads are fairly quick.
I have hosted a service in the IIS server, while consuming the service i am getting some error. I have mentioned the error code below.

I have a WCF Service that I have boiled down to next to nothing because of this error. It is driving me up the wall. Here's what I have now.
A very simple WCF service with one method that returns a string with the value, "test". A very simple Web app that uses the service and puts the value of the string into a label. A web server running IIS 6 on Win 2003 with a SSL certificate.
Other WCF services on the same server that work. I publish the WCF service to it's https location I run the web app in debug mode in VS and it works perfectly. I publish the web app to it's https location on the same server the WCF service resides under the same SSL certificate I get, "The remote server returned an error: (403) Forbidden" I have changed almost every setting in IIS as well as the WCF and Web apps to no avail. I have compared setting in the WCF services that work and everything is the same.
Below are the setting in the web.config for the WCF Service and the WEB app: It appears the problem has to do with the Web app but I am out of ideas.

I have had some web services running for some time now without any problems. Recently I tried to update the webservices in the project they run from but keep getting the error: Metadata contains a reference that cannot be resolved: 'http://server/ErrorEmails.asmx?wsdl'
When I tried adding the web reference to the project from scratch I get he following error: 'Unable to download the following files from http://server/ErrorEmails.asmx?wsdl'
Now I can see what the problem is: the 'server' part of the url is pointing to the internal server name instead of the actual url. I have not changed anything in the web services themselves or the projects which include them. If I copy the exact same webservice to a different folder on the server it can connect with no problem. This makes me believe its an issue with the directory on the server, however the server administrators say that this is not the case.
How has this error come up all of a sudden and what is the solution? .. I have read various forums on creating proxy classes, adding code to web config file etc but don't see why this should be done when it worked fine to start with and still works fine in a separate directory on the server!
My website (VWD 2008 Express) has been running for some time with no error. Something has become corrupted,I am getting the error message "Error: Sys.InvalidOperationException: The path to the web service has not been set." when attempting to use the default authentication message.Nothing has changed in the script manager specification on the page.
I have consumed an external webservice in my client application using WCF. And every thing works great in my Dev box(XP with IIS5.1)But when the same application is moved to Prod server(Win Server 2003 with IIS6.0) it fails. Below is the exception caught:
There was no endpoint listening at http://MyExternalWebServiceUrlWithSessionId could accept the message. This is often caused by an incorrect address or SOAP action. See InnerException, if present, for more details.And the InnerException is: Unable to connect to the remote server.My Config file has the below settings:
I am consuming the java web service in .net client, when i sent a request to that web service, i am getting one exception in response object.It says "Client found response content type of 'text/plain', but expected 'text/xml'", along with this message i am getting the response in that exception.
I am making a call to a WCF service(Existing) from another WCF Service(New, my service), which is configured as Anonymous access. I did a service reference of my service to web application both under same solution file and web app is configured as Windows Authentication. When I call the existing WCF Service from my web app directly, everything works fine, but when I call the same existing WCF Service from my service, I got a "user does not have valid credentials" error. To avoid this error, I published my service to a server and referenced that URL to my web app. Though I got past the error, now, I am getting "Invalid Argument" error. No further information on the error.
Error source is MSCORLIB. There is no problem in the code of my service and the existing service, because if the same value that I get from the existing service is hard coded, then everything works fine. The existing service is used by many other app and it works fine. So, its a tested service. I tried to find a solution of "invalid argument" and I found few threads where others are facing the same problem when they publish a WCF service, but I did not find any proper solution for this.
I have a web service that was running on Server 2003, IIS6. The service required an SSL connection. The service expects 4 parameters; a User ID, Password, Record ID and the "type" of data requested (one of 5 options). The service validates the user then simply performs a select of the record ID from a table determined by the type specified. This service was up and running for a couple of years. I installed a couple of new servers a couple of months ago. The users that makes use of this service just tried it and couldn't get a response. I checked the server and I hadn't copied the service over. The service is located in a virtual directory under the primary web site.
For example, the site is: [URL] Service virtual directory is "GetITSData" The call to the service has been: [URL] param1, param2, param3, param4 and the service would return the appropriate data. I "assumed" that when I copied the actual contents of the directory over, that the service would then begin functioning again (since it was empty). All IIS snap-in manager items for the virtual directory match the previous settings on the old server (I still have that server available in my office). The main site requires SSL and uses forms authentication. When I create a dummy site in VS2008 and try to add a service reference, I get the following: There was an error downloading [URL]. The request failed with HTTP status 403: Forbidden. Metadata contains a reference that cannot be resolved: [URL]. The remote server returned an unexpected response: (405) Method Not Allowed. The remote server returned an error: (405) Method Not Allowed. If the service is defined in the current solution, try building the solution and adding the service reference again.
I have created a WCF Service which is returning a DataTable. It is successfully build and hosted in IIS7 and also working fine when i am returning a string only. but it gives me error (below) when i am returning a DataTable.
"The server did not provide a meaningful reply; this might be caused by a contract mismatch, a premature session shutdown or an internal server error."
