The webconfig in server to generate the following looks like this
<system.serviceModel>
<bindings>
<wsHttpBinding>
<binding name="WsBinding" messageEncoding="Mtom" maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647" maxBufferPoolSize="2147483647" transactionFlow="false" textEncoding="utf-8" >
</binding>
</wsHttpBinding>
</bindings>
<services>
<service behaviorConfiguration="NextGenServiceBehavior" name="SupportingDocsFacade.NextGenService">
<endpoint address="/UploadDoc" binding="wsHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="WsBinding" name="Basic" contract="SupportingDocsFacade.INextGenService" />
</service>
</services>
<behavior name="NextGenServiceBehavior">
<serviceMetadata httpsGetEnabled="true" />
<serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="true" />
<dataContractSerializer maxItemsInObjectGraph="2147483647" />
</behavior>
I wrote a client and is it is able to communicate with the service .
The issue came when i tried importing WSDL in SOAP UI
Following is the RemoteFileInfo class used for WCF service
public class RemoteFileInfo : IDisposable
{
[MessageHeader(MustUnderstand = true)]
public DocumentExchangeRequests dcExhange;
[MessageBodyMember]
public Stream FileByteStream;
public void Dispose()
{
if (FileByteStream != null)
{
FileByteStream.Close();
FileByteStream = null;
}
}
}
[Serializable]
[MessageContract]
public class DocumentExchangeRequests
{
private DescriptionSet _documentDescription = null;
private LoanFileIdentifier _loanIdentifier = null;
[DataMember(IsRequired = true)]
public DescriptionSet DocumentDescriptionset
{
get { return _documentDescription = this.DocumentDescriptionset; }
set { this.DocumentDescriptionset = value; }
}
[DataMember(IsRequired = true)]
public LoanFileIdentifier LoanIdentifier
{
get { return _loanIdentifier = this.LoanIdentifier; }
set { this.LoanIdentifier = value; }
}
}
[Serializable]
[MessageContract]
public class DescriptionSet
{
private string _documentType = "";
[DataMember(IsRequired = true)]
public string DocumentTypes
{
get { return _documentType = this.DocumentTypes; }
set { this.DocumentTypes = value; }
}
[DataMember(IsRequired = true)]
public string DocumentID { get; set; }
[DataMember(IsRequired = true)]
public string ByteCount { get; set; }
[DataMember(IsRequired = true)]
public string DocumentCreated { get; set; }
[DataMember(IsRequired = true)]
public string PageCount { get; set; }
[DataMember(IsRequired = true)]
public string DocumentDescrption { get; set; }
}
[Serializable]
[MessageContract]
public class LoanFileIdentifier
{
[DataMember(IsRequired = true, Order = 0, Name = "DocHeaderID")]
public string DocumentID { get; set; }
[DataMember(IsRequired = true, Order = 1, Name = "BrokerID")]
public string BrokerID { get; set; }
[DataMember(IsRequired = true, Order = 2, Name = "ApplyOnlineID")]
public string ApplyOnlineID { get; set; }
}
Any pointer on what is causing the issue . I have been cracking head over this for a week . Is this anything to do with the setting in soapUI or my WSDL itself is wrong ?

Answer 1

WSDL, web service description language, this file doesn’t contain data contract of the service, only XSD files contain the Data Contracts and WSDL has import directives for those XSD files.
Due to this dependency on other files, processing such these WSDL files by some third-party was impossible. Therefore WCF4.5 publish the service metadata by using a Single file. all WSDL information is returned in one single document including some other information.
In SOAPUI, we could use the SingleWSDL file to generate the project.
http://10.157.13.69:1100/Service1.svc?singleWsdl
The premise is that we enable metadata publishing via the Http or Https protocol.
Here is a helpful link, wish it is useful to you.

Feel free to let me know if there is anything I can help with.
