I have a WCF service, that use tcp for the communication. When I try to transfer a file from the client to the service, if I do that in the same computerm in which the configure file in the client and in the service use the localhost for the url, I have not any problem.
However, if I try to do the same when the client is in other computer in the lan, I get the following exception:
System.TimeoutException: This request operation sent to net.tcp://192.168.1.5:7997/CMMSHost did not receive a reply within the configured timeout (00:01:00). The time allotted to this operation may have been a portion of a longer timeout. This may be because the service is still processing the operation or because the service was unable to send a reply message. Please consider increasing the operation timeout (by casting the channel/proxy to IContextChannel and setting the OperationTimeout property) and ensure that the service is able to connect to the client.
however, if I try to use other actions, such as search information or add registers and any other kind of operation, the application works fine.
So the problem is in the transfer of the file.
In the service I use this configuration:
<endpoint address=""
binding="netTcpBinding"
bindingConfiguration="tcpBinding"
name="NetTcpBindingEndpoint"
contract="GTS.CMMS.Service.IService">
<identity>
<dns value="localhost" />

Is your application is working well for small size file in kbs? if yes then for lager size file use transferMode="Streamed" instead of transferMode="Buffered". You have to change configuration accordingly.
If your application is not working for even smaller files there is a problem with your application.
Build your application and regenerate proxy and try to debug your application.

I have a service that use the tcp binding and this services allows to the clients interact with the database. I use EF and self tracking entities.
One thing that I want to do is store files in the database, so to not overload the wire, i have two tables with their corresponding entities. One table Documents with the information of the documents (type, size... etc) and other table, Files, that store the binary information, the file.
Well, in local, when I run the client and the service in the same computer, I can store the files that I want. I try with a file of 6MB. But If I run the client in other computer in the same lan, then I have many problems.
For example, if I try to store a small file, 50kB, I don't have problems, but if I try to store the file of 6MB, then I can get different errors.
For example, if I configure in the client a low timeout, for example 1 minute, I get the error:
System.TimeoutException: This request operation sent to net.tcp://192.168.1.5:7997/CMMSHost did not receive a reply within the configured timeout (00:01:00).
If I configure the client to have a timeout of 10 minutes, then I get the following error:
The server did not provide a meaningful reply
The service is hosted in a wpf application, and in the Begin method of the serve that add the document in the database, I send a text with a log to know if the call is received or not. When I get some of the errors, the call in not received, so I think that the problem perhaps is that the self tacking entity for some reason does not arrive to the service.
My app.config for the service is the following:
<endpoint address=""
binding="netTcpBinding"
bindingConfiguration="tcpBinding"
name="NetTcpBindingEndpoint"
contract="GTS.CMMS.Service.IService">
<identity>
<dns value="localhost" />

I use a large readquotes, to try to discard that the problem is the size of the file, but the problem persists.
Thanks.
I don't think this is an issue related to WCF. I assume its rather related to your IIS.
Can you try the following code snippet in your web.config?
<system.webServer>
<security>
<requestFiltering>
<requestLimits maxAllowedContentLength="524288000"/>
</requestFiltering>
</security>

I'm creating a chat application with WCF(using callback contract) and netTcpBinding.
I'm hosting the service as a windows service and accessing it from other computers
via the client application.
The problem that i'm facing now is the clients connection comes to a Fault state after
10 mins which seems to be some kind of timeout that occur.
I already tried increasing the received timeout and send timeout in both service and client but didn't work.
which setting should i change to increase this timeout period and in which application, service or client?

Thanks.
The timeout in this case is defined by both receiveTimeout in the binding and inactivityTimeout in reliable session which is used for duplex messaging. The correct solution is not increasing timeout but implementing some ping / keep alive messages. The reason is that increasing timeout will keep connections open for failed clients.
Can you post client call sample (service call example). What might happening here is that you are not closing client correctly and you reach maximum sessions on service side.
You must be aware that using net.tcp binding is different than http.
You can use System.ServiceModel performance counters (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms750527.aspx) and see after 10 minutes what is happening (number of calls outstanding, number of service instances, etc..)

Scenario
I have two WCF Services combined in a single App.Config file.
I can't get the thing to run (the application compiles but fails at initialization of the services).
Question
I'm wondering whether I need to set the service name to be the same as something else that is also defined as part of the service overall?
ERROR
TypeInitializationException
{"Service 'MurexUploadObjects.ResponseService' has zero application (non-infrastructure) endpoints. This might be because no configuration file was found for your application, or because no service element matching the service name could be found in the configuration file, or because no endpoints were defined in the service element."}

The service name must be the fully qualified name of your service class, including the namespace, e.g.
<service name="YourServiceNamespace.YourService">
It can't be just anything - the name of the service class is used by ServiceHost to find the right service configuration.

With this configuration in place whenever i try to upload my file,It throws as error
System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: (400) Bad Request.
at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.GetResponse()
at System.ServiceModel.Channels.HttpChannelFactory.
HttpRequestChannel.HttpChannelRequest.WaitForReply(TimeSpan timeout)}
However if i change transferMode="Streamed" to "Buffered" it works as expected. I do not understand why it behaves this way. TransferMode of WCF service is streamed, so it should work with streamed.
Please tell me how to make it work with transferMode="Streamed"
Problem was with hosting WCF services.I had hosted them on Cassini(Web server which ships with VS2008) instead of IIS.Cassini does not allow streaming over HTTP.So just using IIS to host WCF services resolved this issue.
You only want to upload files to the server? In that case, have you tried using
transferMode="StreamedRequest"
instead of "Streamed" ?? Any difference?
Also, can you show us the service contract (the interface you're programming against) ?? That might also gives us a clue.

Apologies if this question appears twice on stackOverflow
Im trying to run a wcf service on a windows server 2003 box. Im getting a System.ServiceModel.AddressAlreadyInUseException exception when the servicehost calls Open() and it tells gives me the following error:
HTTP could not register URL http://+:8080/LogoResizer/mex/ because TCP port 8080 is being used by another application
Ive read that I need to use the httpcfg.exe to register my namespace and Ive used the GUI tool found here to do it but I still get the above exception. Running "netstat -a" doesnt show anything else listening on port 8080 and running "httpcfg.exe query urlacl" returns me the following registered namespaces.

Does anyone have any idea what Im doing wrong or how I can register my namespace so I can have a http endpoint for my service?
Worked it out.
Problem was having both my endpoints running off the same port. This isnt an issue when developing under windows XP, but will give you the exceptions I wrote about when trying to run the service under Vista or windows server 2003. I just needed to update my server config to the following
<baseAddresses>
<add baseAddress="http://localhost:9000/mex/"/>
<add baseAddress="net.tcp://localhost:9001/" />
</baseAddresses>
