WCFTestClient exception on deployed service - wcf

I use the WCFTestClient that is provided with visual studio to test my service.
The thing is that the tool is working for the service that is deployed in wisual studio with my aplication. But if I try to connect to a deployed instance on another machine I get the following exception. Has anyone solved this issue?
The service uses WindowsAutentication.
The HTTP request is unauthorized with client authentication scheme 'Negotiate'. The authentication header received from the server was 'Negotiate oX0we6ADCgEBonQEcmBwBgkqhkiG9xIBAgIDAH5hMF+gAwIBBaEDAgEepBEYDzIwMTAxMDI3MDgzNTIxWqUFAgMCED6mAwIBKakLGwlCQVcuTE9DQUyqJzAloAMCAQOhHjAcGwRob3N0GxRsYmFpdGVzdDAxLmJhdy5sb2NhbA=='.

access to basicHTTP binding through WCF - results in Forbidden

I am trying to access a web service using WCF client application in CS, when trying to access the web method. I am getting the forbidden error.
Binding configuration:basicHttpBinding
endpoint address=http://xxxxx/yyyy/WebServices/Soap/Query.svc
I noticed 1 more thing - when I try to add the service reference to WCF through VS - it is https://xxxx/yyyy/Webservices/Soap but in app Config it shows http.
Does anyone know how to handle this or what I am missing?
Please do help for the same.
Here is the call stack for the same:

Public Key Error WCF Client

I am working on a WCF service. It is hosted in IIS and secured by SSL. I am using custom biding with Soap11. I have a private key for this service and it is referenced in the web.config file. I have exported the public key from the private key and plan to give this public key to a vendor who will call this service.
When I try to test the service using a client. I am getting the below error. In my client I have referenced the public key. My client is sending the request to the service which is secured by the private key. I have checked the private key to make sure I have "you have a private key that correspond to this certificate. also, i have the IIS app pool running under my user name. I am the administrator in the computer.
However, when i try to send a request, I get the error "The private key is not present in the X.509 certificate." in the client. What could be causing this error?

Exception when making a call to DB and returning a List<T>

I am making a WCF service that connects to a database and return results. One out of four DataContracts works without a problem (that return an int) but the other three give me an exception (that return a List). Below the error message.
The underlying connection was closed: The connection was closed unexpectedly.

You probably need to decorate the entities returned or the service with known type attributes

WebHttpBinding authentication ignored

I'm trying to use basic HTTP authentication with a REST service, but debugging proxy shows that no authentication headers are sent at all, they are ignored! Here is my code:
WebChannelFactory<IMyService> factory = new WebChannelFactory<IMyService>(
new WebHttpBinding(),
new Uri("http://10.6.90.45:8081"));
WebHttpBinding http = (WebHttpBinding) factory.Endpoint.Binding;
http.Security.Transport.ClientCredentialType = HttpClientCredentialType.Basic;
http.Security.Mode = WebHttpSecurityMode.TransportCredentialOnly;
factory.Credentials.UserName.UserName = "username";
factory.Credentials.UserName.Password = "password";
IMyService proxy = factory.CreateChannel();
proxy.SomeMethod();
...
The HTTP request is unauthorized with client authentication scheme 'Basic'. The authentication header received from the server was ''.

weird error about WCF -- System.ServiceModel.CommunicationException was unhandled

I created a simple WCF demo:
Server Side:
namespace ServerSide
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
System.ServiceModel.ServiceHost host =
new System.ServiceModel.ServiceHost(typeof(HelloIndigo.HelloIndigoService), new Uri("http://locahost:8000/HelloIndigo"));
host.AddServiceEndpoint(typeof(HelloIndigo.IHelloIndigoService), new System.ServiceModel.BasicHttpBinding(), "HelloIndigoService");
host.Open();
Console.Write("Terminate Server");
Console.ReadLine();
}
}
}
Client Side:
namespace ClientSide
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
System.ServiceModel.EndpointAddress ep =
new System.ServiceModel.EndpointAddress("http://locahost:8000/HelloIndigo/HelloIndigoService");
IHelloIndigoService proxy =
System.ServiceModel.ChannelFactory<IHelloIndigoService>.CreateChannel(new System.ServiceModel.BasicHttpBinding(), ep);
string s = proxy.HelloIndigo();
Console.WriteLine(s);
Console.ReadLine();
}
}
}
Then, run ServerSide, when I tried to run the CLientSide, I got following error msg:
An error occurred while receiving the HTTP response to http://locahost:8000/HelloIndigo/HelloIndigoService. This could be due to the service endpoint binding not using the HTTP protocol. This could also be due to an HTTP request context being aborted by the server (possibly due to the service shutting down). See server logs for more details.
And the error details:
System.ServiceModel.CommunicationException was unhandled
