is there a possibility to get in the Client.Open Method, so i can try to connect unsecure to a Service, and if this does not work, to connect secure?
Just like probing.
finally i found a solution to my problem.
The key was to build a ChannelFactory and a IRequestChannel. Then I could build a new factory from my binding and endpointaddress. With this factory I was able to build a chennel which I could open to probe my service.

We have an existing wcf service, and I created a new project. I want to use it. I hit add service reference, pop in the URL, press OK, and it adds it as a service reference but there is no config generated.
I also tried svcutil.exe /language:cs /out:GeneratedProxy.cs /config:app.config [url] but no config is generated, only the proxy cs.
I'm using VS 2013 / .NET 4.0
My question is, is this a sign that the SVC itself has some missing data that is required to build the contracts, or is the problem with adding the service reference?
For the record I have tried unchecking the reuse types option which some questions on here have reported as fixing the problem.
Bonus question, do you think if I can't get this working that manually adding some generic default bindings and endpoint code to the web config will work?
First, the reason that why the Adding service reference generates nothing is that the WCF service is rest style service. By default, the proxy-based invocation of rest style WCF services is complex.

Calling the WCF rest style service with the client proxy is uncommon. Generally, we construct an Http request by using an HTTP client library to call the service, such as HttpClient, WebClient.

Besides, calling the WCF rest style service with the client proxy is feasible. Please refer to my previous link.

Feel free to let me know if there is anything I can help with.
I am trying to host a Wcf Service on the IIS, but am unable to do so. I have the service inside a website in IIS added as an application and am also able to get the wsdl for the service. But when trying to hit the service through the WcfTestClient, I get the following error -
Failed to invoke the service. Possible causes: The service is offline or inaccessible; the client-side configuration does not match the proxy; the existing proxy is invalid. Refer to the stack trace for more detail. You can try to recover by starting a new proxy, restoring to default configuration, or refreshing the service.
I have gone through the steps to host a wcf service on the IIS. Not sure what I am missing or doing wrong. Thanks in advance for any help.
It seems there is error in WCF.
Try putting
try and catch
or
make a empty method to return Hello World
I have developed a WCF service. Now I want my clients can access to it using sockets. I implemented a TCPListener system on my WCF service, but when I try to instantiate my TCPListener object in a separate thread, I get the following error: An attempt was made to access a Socket in a way that is forbidden by its access permissions.
My WCF service is hosted locally.
Someone to help me please ?
Thanks in advance
You shouldn't let your service implement a socket, communicating is the task of the Binding. You could implement a custom binding which instantiates a TCP channel, some hints here and here. You can also just use the net.tcp Binding, if performance is your goal.
Finally the error you get is pretty clear if you search it on the web: it means you're trying to listen on a port that requires administrative privileges or that is already in use.
I am trying to consume a WCF web service from a .NET client application, and I think I need to be able to programmatically create endpoints, but I don't know how. I think I need to do this because, when I try to run the application, I am getting the following error:
Could not find default endpoint
element that references contract
'IEmailService' in the ServiceModel
client configuration section. This
might be because no configuration file
was found for your application, or
because no endpoint element matching
this contract could be found in the
client element.
While troubleshooting this error, I created a simple windows forms application, in which I try to consume the same web service. With this test application I can connect to the web service successfully, and I get a valid response. But, I can reproduce the exact error cited above within in my test app by removing the system.serviceModel node and all of its child nodes from the application's app.config file (I might not have to remove ALL of that section, I'm not sure). So, my first thought was that I need to add that section to the app.config file for the real app, and everything should be fine. Unfortunately, for ridiculous reasons that I won't get into here, that is not an option. So, I am left with having to generate this information in code, inside the client app.
I am hoping someone here can help me work through this, or can point me toward a good resource for this sort of problem.
Is it possible to create endpoint configurations in the client app, in code?
By default, when you do an Add Service Reference operation, the WCF runtime will generate the client-side proxy for you.
The simplest way to use it is to instantiate the client proxy with a constructor that takes no parameters, and just grab the info from the app.config:
YourServiceClient proxy = new YourServiceClient();
This requires the config file to have a <client> entry with your service contract - if not, you'll get the error you have.
But the client side proxy class generated by the WCF runtime also has additional constructors - one takes an endpoint address and a binding, for instance:
BasicHttpBinding binding = new BasicHttpBinding(SecurityMode.None);
EndpointAddress epa = new EndpointAddress("http://localhost:8282/basic");
YourServiceClient proxy = new YourServiceClient(binding, epa);
With this setup, no config file at all is needed - you're defining everything in code. Of course, you can also set just about any other properties of your binding and/or endpoint here in code.
An east way to consume a WCF service if you have a reference to the assembly which defines the interface, is using the System.ServiceModel.ChannelFactory class.
For example, if you would like to use BasicHttpBinding:
var emailService = ChannelFactory<IEmailService>.CreateChannel(new BasicHttpBinding(), new EndpointAddress(new Uri("http://some-uri-here.com/));
If you don't have a reference to the service assembly, then you can use one of the overloaded constructors on the generated proxy class to specify binding settings.
Has anyone done this? I've tried generating a c# proxy class and connecting through it, but I cannot figure out how to get IronPython to use the generated app.config file that defines the endpoint. It tries to connect, but I just get an error about no default endpoint. I would ideally like to make the connection using only IronPython code and not use the proxy class, if possible. The binding for the service I am trying to connect to is a NetTcpBinding if that makes any difference.
See my blog post. There are IronPython WCF service and client examples.
To use app.config, you probably must copy it to ipy.exe and rename it to ipy.exe.config but I have not tried it so I don't know whether it works or not.
Is your WCF service interface available in a shared assembly? If so, you could look at using the ChannelFactory to create your client proxy dynamically (instead of using the generated C# proxy). With that method you can supply all the details of the endpoint when you create the ChannelFactory and you won't require any configuration in your .config file.
