Deploying a simple WCF Service to web server - wcf

Question

Created a new Directory XYZ in IIS 7.0. Copied the web.config, Service.cs and Service.svc to the directory. Now on browsing http://www.mydomain.com/XYZ/Service.svc I am getting a '500 internal server error'.
Here is the web.cofig file.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration>
<system.web>
<compilation debug="true" targetFramework="4.0" />
</system.web>
<system.serviceModel>
<behaviors>
<serviceBehaviors>
<behavior>
<!-- To avoid disclosing metadata information, set the value below to false and remove the metadata endpoint above before deployment -->
<serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true"/>
<!-- To receive exception details in faults for debugging purposes, set the value below to true. Set to false before deployment to avoid disclosing exception information -->
<serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="false"/>
</behavior>
</serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>
<serviceHostingEnvironment multipleSiteBindingsEnabled="true" />
</system.serviceModel>
<system.webServer>
<modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true"/>
</system.webServer>
</configuration>
I am thinking there might be some problem with the config file, but the service runs pretty ok on local machine.

At first, you must use dll-file instead of code file. Compile code and put dll into the "bin" folder.
At second, you didn't add endpoints into web.cofnig:
<system.serviceModel>
<!-- ... -->
<services>
<service name="SiteService">
<endpoint address="" binding="basicHttpBinding"
contract="Name of the service interface with namespace, for exanple WebApplication1.IService1" />
<endpoint address="mex" binding="mexHttpBinding" contract="IMetadataExchange" />
</service>
</services>
</system.serviceModel>
And check svc file, a service name inside it should correspond to a service name inside a config file. If a service has a line <service name="SiteService">, svc file should be
<%# ServiceHost Language="C#" Debug="true" Service="SiteService" CodeBehind="Service.cs" %>
