I have wsdl file with me.But i don't have access to the file where it is deployed.
I need to generate proxy class using the WSDl file. I am getting error while using svcutil.ece to generate proxy file
Error: Cannot import wsdl:port Detail:

If you are using svcutil with a locally downloaded WSDL file, you need to also download all related XSD files and pass them on the svcutil command line as well. A great tool for automatically downloading all related XSD files is disco.exe in the Windows / .NET SDK (and there may be a svcutil mode that does it as well, don't remember for sure).

I am trying to load WSDL using mule's Web Service Consumer but no success. If I try same WSDL from SOAPUI it works without running into any issues.
I tried below 2 options and both directing me to different issues. Any suggestion?
Option#1. Tried to load WSDL with URL gives me PKIX path building failed as below
Option#2. Also, tried to load WSDL as resource i.e. by saving it into src/main/resources folder. This gives me below
NOTE: I am using Anypoint Studio 6.4.4 with mule Community Edition 3.9 and JDK 1.8.
WSDL: https://esweb.revenue.louisiana.gov/fsettest/fsetgatewaywebservice.asmx?wsdl
you need to add the wsdl certificate to Java cacerts keystore. Here you have a useful link:
https://knowledge.digicert.com/solution/SO4085.html
On the other hand, you are getting the second error, because that wsdl you downloaded has an import of another wsdl (this is the other wsdl http://esweb.revenue.louisiana.gov/fsettest/fsetgatewaywebservice.asmx?wsdl=wsdl1).
If you want to do it this way (that I would not recommend), you will need to download all the wsdls that are imported, and reference them locally.
I've had not a lot of luck creating a WCF service with Visual Studio. It's in IIS, and it I click 'browse' on the .svc file itself, it tells me I have created a service. So I assume it's all okay to a point.
Throughout my time I came across a recommendation to use a program called svcutil.exe. I used it on my service and got the following error. I don't know what it means, so hopefully someone can shed some light on the situation.

Warning: No code was generated.
If you were trying to generate a client, this could be because the metadata docu
ments did not contain any valid contracts or services
or because all contracts/services were discovered to exist in /reference assembl
ies. Verify that you passed all the metadata documents to the tool.
Warning: If you would like to generate data contracts from schemas make sure to
use the /dataContractOnly option.
I think this previous Stack Overflow question may help with your current question but not necessarily your problem.
Error: Cannot import wsdl:port with svcutil
You've created your WCF service and you've browsed to it in IIS so you're happy that it is working. The purpose of SVCUtil.exe is to generate classes that you can use in an application to interact with the service with compile time information on the contract members and methods.
it performs the exact same function as adding a service reference in visual studio to consume the service.
If your having trouble, i'd suggest just creating a simple console project in visual studio, adding a service reference and giving it the url of the service you've hosted in IIS. Then click "show all files" in the visual studio solution explorer and look at the reference.cs file it gives you. This will show you what information has been consumed from your service.
Edit
Hi Again,
After going through all the comments below I'm starting to see more about your problem. I think you misunderstand what it is your doing when in fact you've already achieved what you want to achieve.
The original project, the one you had with the WCF test client that worked did what you needed. It is a fully fledged WCF Service. All you needed to do was right click the solution in visual studio and publish it. If you then make sure that you make an IIS virtual directory point at your solution, through the publish wizard. Then when you run your project and then browse to that url, that will give you a service to consume for testing purposes.
What you are doing at the moment, creating a WCF project, adding that DLL to a website project is fundamentally wrong: The example you followed, presumably this one :
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms733766.aspx
is about creating a WCF service in a web site project from scratch. Not about adding a pre-existing WCF project and hosting it.
Your essentially trying to do one thing in two different ways together.
Your current course of action is to either remove the DLL in your web project and then create the service there. Or host your current WCF service in IIS ( the project you downloaded from me or your original one)
At this point you have a hosted service. Then usually you have an application to interact wtih it. This you found using svcutil and can be done in one of two ways:
You create the console application and do "Add Service Reference" to the URL you have hosted in IIS.
Or you use SVC Util.exe point it at the url which generates a class file you include in your console / application.
I hope that clears things up about WCF and what stages to use various tools?
Edit 2
Just in case you don't get to the Chat:
I still think theres something wrong with your original project. I'm not sure what you mean by the one with the DLL either? if that means your website project with the dll of the WCF project, then no not that one.
I've taken the project I sent you earlier. I've hosed that in IIS so that when i browse to localhost/EvalService on my machine i get the standard
"EvalService Service
You have created a service.
To test this service, you will need to create a client and use it to call the service. You can do this using the svcutil.exe tool from the command line with the following syntax:"
Once I had that set up i created a console application, "added service reference" in visual studio and it consumed teh service no problem.
Try doing the above with the project I sent you and see how far you get.
What is the use of "WebServiceHost2Factory".
I am creating Rest Wcf service.
I am using VS2010 so do I need to install WCF Rest Starter Kit??
When I added WebServiceHost2Factory to my service markup I am getting an error saying
"The CLR Type 'Microsoft.ServiceModel.Web.WebServiceHost2Factory' could not be loaded during service compilation".
What am I missing here.
here is my markUp for Service.
<%# ServiceHost Language="C#" Debug="true" Service="WCFRESTService1.Service1" CodeBehind="Service1.svc.cs" Factory = "Microsoft.ServiceModel.Web.WebServiceHost2Factory" %>
Any help will be appreciated.
Use WebServiceHost2Factory and WebProtocolException for Error Handling
A large part of building an API is ensuring there is adequate error handling in place to help the user implement your API. Up until the release of WebServiceHost2Factory, returning the appropriate HTTP response code and message was a chore. Luckily for us we can achieve this feat quickly and easily by utilising the WebServiceHost2Factory and WebProtocoException classes.

The below help to troubleshoot your problem can be found from the following link.
Parser Error: Service Type Could Not Be Loaded During Compilation
You may get the following error message when you navigate a WCF service (.svc file) from a browser:
The CLR Type 'XXXX' could not be loaded during service compilation. Verify that this type is either defined in a source file located in the application's \App_Code directory, contained in a compiled assembly located in the application's \bin directory, or present in an assembly installed in the Global Assembly Cache. Note that the type name is case-sensitive and that the directories such as \App_Code and \bin must be located in the application's root directory and cannot be nested in subdirectories.
The error message is pretty explainable by itself. However, I still want to point out different situations when this can happen. Here is the format of the Service Directive of a .svc file:
<%#Service language=c# Class="<Managed Type>" [Other attributes] %>
Here are possible reasons why this can happen:
The specified string for the “Class” attribute does not represent an existing CLR type. Sometimes, this may be due to a typo. This string is case-sensitive. Also if you copy this from MS-Word, the quotes may be some special Unicode characters instead of the real ASCII quotes.
If you have the assembly (containing the service type) in the \bin directory, it is possible that you did not create a virtual directory so that its root directory contains \bin as its immediate sub-directory.
If you have your type in a code file under \App_Code, it may be due to the same reason as above.
I am using the Silvelight Business Application template. I wrote a function which uses Membership.getUserList function to return the user list. I tried exposing it as Service using WCF. But when I try to compile the client side code it throws a warning saying "Client Proxy Generation for user_authentication.Web.Service1 failed'. Why does it happen?
The complete warning message is:

Hard to say, I'm not a good enough clairvoyant yet ;-) ... Is your webservice actually already compiled, published and running? Maybe here you can find further hints:
MSDN WCF Forums: svcutil Error
I have an old WSDL file and I want to create a server based on this WSDL file.
The WSDL is generated from a ASMX (I suppose but I am not sure).
How can I achieve this ?
original question where the OP thought he needed to create a client based on the WSDL.
Using svcutil, you can create interfaces and classes (data contracts) from the WSDL.
svcutil your.wsdl (or svcutil your.wsdl /l:vb if you want Visual Basic)
This will create a file called "your.cs" in C# (or "your.vb" in VB.NET) which contains all the necessary items.
Now, you need to create a class "MyService" which will implement the service interface (IServiceInterface) - or the several service interfaces - and this is your server instance.
Now a class by itself doesn't really help yet - you'll need to host the service somewhere. You need to either create your own ServiceHost instance which hosts the service, configure endpoints and so forth - or you can host your service inside IIS.
There are good resources out there if you know what to search for. Try "Contract First" and WCF. or "WSDL First" and WCF.
Here is a selection:

Article on how to design "WCF-Friendly" WSDL
Use svcutil.exe with the /sc switch to generate the WCF contracts. This will create a code file that you can add to your project. It will contain all interfaces and data types you need to create your service. Change the output location using the /o switch, or you can find the file in the folder where you ran svcutil.exe. The default language is C# but I think (I've never tried it) you should be able to change this using /l:vb.
svcutil /sc "WSDL file path"
If your WSDL has any supporting XSD files pass those in as arguments after the WSDL.
svcutil /sc "WSDL file path" "XSD 1 file path" "XSD 2 file path" ... "XSD n file path"
Then create a new class that is your service and implement the contract interface you just created.
You could use svcutil.exe to generate client code. This would include the definition of the service contract and any data contracts and fault contracts required.
Then, simply delete the client code: classes that implement the service contracts. You'll then need to implement them yourself, in your service.
Using the "Add Service Reference" tool in Visual Studio, you can insert the address as:
file:///path/to/wsdl/file.wsdl
And it will load properly.
