Binding validation failed - wcf

I have a very simple WCF program that writes data to an MSMQ, but I get this error
Binding validation failed because the binding's MsmqAuthenticationMode property is set to WindowsDomain but MSMQ is installed with Active Directory integration disabled. The channel factory or service host cannot be opened.
The config file I am using is this
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
<system.serviceModel>
<bindings>
<netMsmqBinding>
<binding name="MsmqBindingNonTransactionalNoSecurity" exactlyOnce="false">
<security mode="None"/>
</binding>
<binding name="MsmqBindingNonTransactionalTransportSecurity" exactlyOnce="false">
<security mode="Transport"/>
</binding>
<binding name="MsmqBindingTransactionalTransportSecurity" exactlyOnce="true">
<security mode="Transport"/>
</binding>
</netMsmqBinding>
</bindings>
<client>
<endpoint name="MsmqService"
address="net.msmq://localhost/private/MsmqService/MsmqService.svc"
binding="netMsmqBinding" bindingConfiguration="MsmqBindingTransactionalTransportSecurity"
contract="MsmqContract.IMsmqContract" />
</client>
</system.serviceModel>
</configuration>
Any idea what is wrong?

WCF Service configuration HTTPS with CustomBinding

I needed a custombinding on a WCF Service to allow me to pass raw content to WCFRest service. Works great, but I can't get it to accept transport level security. I want https and basicauthentication as I use elsewhere. Endpoint looks like this:
<endpoint address="" behaviorConfiguration="web" contract="SmsService.ISmsReceive" binding="customBinding" bindingConfiguration="RawReceiveCapable"></endpoint>
customBinding looks like this:
<customBinding>
<binding name="RawReceiveCapable">
<security mode="Transport">
<transport clientCredentialType="Basic"/>
</security>
<webMessageEncoding webContentTypeMapperType="SmsService.RawContentTypeMapper, SmsService, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null" />
<httpTransport manualAddressing="true" maxReceivedMessageSize="524288000" transferMode="Streamed" />
</binding>
</customBinding>
but system complains that mode attribute is not allowed in the security node. Without the security node all works great but it's not https.
Thanks
Ray
I think you need to drop the <security> element and then change the httpTransport element to httpsTransport as shown in the following example:
<system.serviceModel>
<bindings>
<customBinding>
<binding name="RawReceiveCapable">
<webMessageEncoding webContentTypeMapperType="SmsService.RawContentTypeMapper, SmsService, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null" />
<httpsTransport authenticationScheme="Basic" manualAddressing="true" maxReceivedMessageSize="524288000" transferMode="Streamed" />
</binding>
</customBinding>
</bindings>

silverlight + wcf deployment - development port interferes

I have a silverlight 5 application, with a (non RIA) WCF service in my web project.
Of course it works great on my machine ;-) - Windows 7, but when I deploy it to my dev server (a WinServer2008 with .NET 4 on it, using IIS 6), the application doesnt seem to finish loading - I get the initial silverlight Loading... then I just have a blank screen. I dont see any error messages.
I think the issue may be that the silveright app assumes that the port for the WCF service is the same as it was on my machine (46133).
Ive seen articles online that say that you should set the address of the endpoint in ServiceReferences.ClientConfig to ../Service.svc. If I change it to this, and deploy, nothing changes.
In the properties of the web project, on the web tab, I have Use Visual Studio Development Server checked, and specific port 46133, Virtual Path =/
I think that the deployed site, is still trying to use port 46133, because Fiddler shows a 502 red item for the clientaccesspolicy.xml file, with the message
[Fiddler] The socket connection to localhost failed. ErrorCode: 10061. No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 127.0.0.1:46133
Any suggestions?

TCP error code 10013 Cross Domain Policy Error with netTcpBinding Service and Silverlight Client

Was wondeirng if anybody could get me out of my cross domain policy hell.
I have a duplex WCF service which uses netTcpBining, and the client is a Silverlight 4 app. When I self host the service, then it works perfectly and my Silverlight clients can consume the service with no problems. However when I host it in IIS 7, that's when the trouble starts. When I host it in IIS I'm able to see the service at:
http://localhost/Conference/VideoConferenceService.svc
And when I add a reference to the service which is hosted in IIS, and try to call it, I get a:
CommunicationException: Could not connect to
net.tcp://localhost/Conference/VideoConferenceService.svc. The
connection attempt lasted for a time span of 00:00:03.3071892. TCP
error code 10013: An attempt was made to access a socket in a way
forbidden by its access permissions.. This could be due to attempting
to access a service in a cross-domain way while the service is not
configured for cross-domain access. You may need to contact the owner
of the service to expose a sockets cross-domain policy over HTTP and
host the service in the allowed sockets port range 4502-4534.
Or if seeing the actual error helps inspire those who have seen it before, here is what it throws at me in Reference.cs:
I have checked out almost every solution suggested regarding solving the cross-domain policy error, and I've put my clientaccesspolicy.xml in my default website root in IIS, and also in wwwroot. I've also turned off all my firewalls. I'm able to see the policy at http://localhost/clientaccesspolicy.xml
and also at http://127.0.0.1/clientaccesspolicy.xml but I still get this error.
Here is my web.config for the service hosted in IIS 7:

Has anybody got any suggestions? This annoying error has taken days of my time thus far.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT
When I check the files being retrieved in my web sessions using fiddler, it shows that my browser is retrieving the client access policy file, so I think the error lies somewhere else and WCF is just throwing this error at me? I've also set IE9 to clear its cache everytime its close. Take a look below.
Well I just managed to get it working. Couple of points worth mentioning are that:
1. If you look at the erroneous ServiceReferences.ClientConfig that I posted above (generated by visual studio when I gave the service address as: http://localhost/Conference/VideoConferenceService.svc ) you can see that the netTcp port which is 4502, was not generated as part of the endpoint, this is what what causing the TCP error 10016 (EndpointNotFoundException) as well as TCP error 10013. The correct ServiceReferences.ClientConfig is actually:
<configuration>
<system.serviceModel>
<bindings>
<customBinding>
<binding name="NetTcpBinding_IVideoConferenceService">
<binaryMessageEncoding />
<tcpTransport maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647" maxBufferSize="2147483647" />
</binding>
</customBinding>
</bindings>
<client>
<endpoint address="net.tcp://localhost:4502/Conference/VideoConferenceService.svc"
binding="customBinding" bindingConfiguration="NetTcpBinding_IVideoConferenceService"
contract="ServiceReference1.IVideoConferenceService" name="NetTcpBinding_IVideoConferenceService" />
</client>
</system.serviceModel>
</configuration>
2. When I was hosting my service in IIS 7, I was giving the port range 808:* as the netTcp ports, whereas I should have given 4502:* as the port range, like below:
Also from what I gathered, the website hosting the service should be on port 80, as Silverlight will look in localhost:80/ClientAccessPolicy.xml for the client access policy file.
And just for the record, for those who stumble across this same problem, this web.config managed to work in IIS:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<system.web>
<compilation debug="false" />
</system.web>
<system.serviceModel>
<services>

<endpoint address="mex" binding="mexHttpBinding" contract="IMetadataExchange" />
</service>
</services>
<bindings>
<netTcpBinding>
<binding name="NetTcpBinding_IVideoConferenceService" portSharingEnabled="false" transactionFlow="false" transferMode="Buffered" listenBacklog="2147483647" maxBufferPoolSize="2147483647" maxBufferSize="2147483647" maxConnections="2147483647" maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647" closeTimeout="24.20:31:23.6470000" openTimeout="24.20:31:23.6470000" receiveTimeout="24.20:31:23.6470000" sendTimeout="24.20:31:23.6470000">
<readerQuotas maxDepth="32" maxStringContentLength="8192" maxArrayLength="2147483647" maxBytesPerRead="2147483647" maxNameTableCharCount="2147483647" />
<reliableSession enabled="false" />
<security mode="None">

</binding>
</netTcpBinding>
</bindings>

<serviceBehaviors>
<behavior>

</behavior>
</serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>
</system.serviceModel>
<system.webServer>
<directoryBrowse enabled="true" />
</system.webServer>
</configuration>
Also worth noting that you don't need to put any ports or base addresses in the web.config for IIS. It will create the service endpoint using the port 4502, I tried changing it to 4503, 4522 etc. and interestingly it didn't work with those ports, only with 4502.
We had a similar problem as specified in the original post. Just to help anyone who has not been able to resolve the issue with the solutions provided above, we found that the Windows firewall on the machine hosting the service was blocking the port we were trying to connect with net.tcp through. Once we allowed the traffic through the port on that software firewall our service started working as expected.
It may be worth checking any hardware firewall you might have in place as well to allow the ranges 4502-4530 I believe for net.tcp

How to use MSMQ over http through the respective WCF binding?

We have a one way connection between an agent and the server via MSMQ. I am trying to move it to MSMQ over http.
Now, MSMQ is integrated with IIS on the server side - I made sure to check the respective option when installed MSMQ. But I am puzzled what to do next. I mean, the endpoint address has no indication that MSMQ should be over http.
The relevant agent (which acts as a client) configuration is:
<client>
<endpoint name="WcfOneWayDataPortal"
address="net.msmq://server/private/nc_queue"
contract="Shunra.Common.Contract.IWcfOneWayPortal"
binding="netMsmqBinding"
bindingConfiguration="Msmq" />
</client>
<bindings>
<netMsmqBinding>
<binding name="Msmq" durable="true" useActiveDirectory="false" exactlyOnce="false"
receiveErrorHandling="Fault" maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647">
<security mode="None">
<transport msmqAuthenticationMode="None" msmqProtectionLevel="None" />
</security>
</binding>
</netMsmqBinding>
</bindings>
And the server's one is:
<services>
<service name="Shunra.Common.Csla.WcfOneWayPortal" >
<endpoint contract="Shunra.Common.Contract.IWcfOneWayPortal"
binding="netMsmqBinding"
bindingConfiguration="Msmq"
address="net.msmq://server/private/nc_queue"/>
</service>
</services>
<bindings>
<netMsmqBinding>
<binding name="Msmq" durable="true" useActiveDirectory="false" exactlyOnce="false"
maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647">
<security>
<transport msmqAuthenticationMode="None" msmqProtectionLevel="None"/>
</security>
</binding>
</netMsmqBinding>
</bindings>

Silverlight 3 + WCF and IIS basic authentication

I have the following problem. On my machine I have a SL 3 application, which basically consists of:
* Client app (SL)
* Web app (.Net 3.5)
* Communication with the database handled by WCF
The site is hosted on my IIS, with the following authentication set up:
* Anonymous access: off
* Basic authentication: on
* Integrated Windows authentication: on
My bindings are set up as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<system.serviceModel>
<bindings>
<basicHttpBinding>
<binding name="BasicHttpBinding_IWcfPortal" maxBufferSize="2147483647" maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647">
<security mode="TransportCredentialOnly" />
</binding>
</basicHttpBinding>
</bindings>
<client>
<endpoint address="http://localhost/MyApp/WCFPortal.svc" binding="basicHttpBinding"
bindingConfiguration="BasicHttpBinding_IWcfPortal" contract="WcfPortal.IWcfPortal"
name="BasicHttpBinding_IWcfPortal" />
</client>
</system.serviceModel>
</configuration>
Web.config:
<authentication mode="Windows" />
<identity impersonate="true" />
When I navigate to my site, I am prompted for an username and password. When filled in correctly, I can access the site but the db communication does not work. When I go to localhost/MyApp/WcfPortal.svc, I get the following error:
Security settings for this service require 'Anonymous' Authentication but it is not enabled for the IIS application that hosts this service.
I tried adding <transport clientCredentialType="Windows" /> to the security in the basicHttpBinding, but VS gives me the warning "The 'clientCredentialType' attribute is not declared.".
If anyone can help me with this, I would be very grateful.
I fixed my issue. Turned out I had to change the basicHttpBinding in two places: ServiceReferences.ClientConfig and Web.Config
ServiceReferences.ClientConfig:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<system.serviceModel>
<bindings>

Unfortunately, to host this service under IIS6, you must turn on Anonymous Authentication.
