WCF TimeOut Exception - wcf

I have WCF service. I am calling this service from console application. TimeOut for this service is set to default 1 min.
This service calls One function asynchronously whose execution time is not known. But before the execution of this function service TimeOut exception occurs.
Can anybody suggest, How to handle the WCF timeout exception when we are not aware of the time will be taken by the WCF function.

Mule ESB Any point Studio- Show error when web service is down or timeout

I have consumed a wsdl service which is working fine and if you change any request it will give you 500 error now what i need to display a predefined message if the web service that i am consuming is down & also for timeout.
Also one thing some of web service calling is not working from web service consumer no idea why but they are working from CXF any idea?
To catch a timeout from a WS, use a Catch Exception Strategy and make it execute when the following condition is met: exception.causedBy(java.util.concurrent.TimeoutException)
To catch SOAP faults:
exception.causedBy(org.mule.module.SoapFaultException)
and
exception.causedBy(org.apache.cxf.binding.soap.SoapFault)
That should get you started. Not sure about the second part as to why you can't always use the WS Consumer component.

wcf concurrent call raising timeout issue

I am having a wcf service which is hosted on iis, and I have given all timeout maximum value. When the service method was called at the same by 10 users through Silverlight application, it leads to timeout exception and no call back return to the application. This is not happening for all the time, but once it got failed all the subsequent calls raising the same issue. I have given single instance mode with per call context mode.

What happens if an unhadelled exception occurs at wcf service side during a method call?

I mean if a wcf client makes a call to wcf method, and then if wcf generates an exception which is uncaught at wcf side,
then it is my understanding that this error/exception at wcf side breaks the channel established between client/wcf by wcf proxy object(only if uncaught at wcf side)?
Is that true?
If true,then if i want to use same proxy object again (which was used to call wcf method when exception occurred) to make another call to wcf, may be in catch block at client end (may be for retrial of last call), then is there any way i can use that
or need to create/use new new proxy object?

WCF Service Check for a Client Timeout

Is there a way in a WCF service to catch a client timeout I need to run some special logic on a client timeout.
I have not found any sources indicating a WCF service can check if a client timeout through service side Error Handling, Etc... if you require more information let me know.
Anything that needs to be cleaned up in your service, should be cleaned up regardless of whether there was a client timeout, a client disconnection, or an exception in the service.
Do your cleanup in the finally block of a try/finally, or, if you clean up by calling the Dispose method of an IDisposable object, then use using blocks.

WCF 4.0 REST IIS Hosted Long Running Operation No Response after 1 hr

I have an IIS Hosted WCF REST 4.0 service. When I execute a rest operation that takes over an hour to run it never returns a response to the client. Instead I receive the following exception after 4 hours:
"The request channel timed out while waiting for a reply after 03:59:59.9979998. Increase the timeout value passed to the call to Request or increase the SendTimeout value on the Binding. The time allotted to this operation may have been a portion of a longer timeout"
I have set the WebHttpBinding SendTimeout and ReceiveTimeout on both the client and the server to 4 hours. I have also set the asp.net httpRuntime executionTimeout="7200".
I know for a fact the service operation completes most of the time in just over 1 hour (app logging). If it happens to complete faster than an hour the response is returned perfectly.
I think you're using request-reply way to call the service and your client waits for 1 hour to get the reply, why not use callback operation so that the service can send reply to client when it's done and the client won't need to wait?
