WCF service hosted in IIS with netTCP binding - wcf

I have a WCF service hosted in IIS7 with netTCP enabled.
This is my web.config in %apppath%\ , where the SVC file is.

</system.serviceModel>
<system.web>

</system.web>
</configuration>
For some reason, instead of loading on port 8050 as I specified, I see the blue and beige site showing the site at:
http://localhost/SearcherService/searcherservice.svc
and not
http://localhost:8050/SearcherService/searcherservice.svc
Additionally, when I try to run
svcutil.exe http://process.mycomp.com/SearcherService/SearcherService.svc?wsdl
as the page rendered on the URL says, I get an error:
Metadata contains a reference that cannot be resolved: 'http://process.mycomp.com/SearcherService/SearcherService.svc?wsdl'
But I have that specified nowhere else in my web.config
Is there anywhere else it could be?

You are missing a MEX endpoint, have a look at this link:

How to configure service reference to point to Https, with MutualSSL setup?

In my project I recently changed my WCF service to use Https. It is configured to be a mutual ssl setup and the client and server certificates are both installed appropriately. Server side looks fine and even started fine in the browser as shown below.
However, when trying to configure the service reference from the WPF client side (service proxy that was previously added and generated). I get a 403 forbidden error code as shown below. Any idea why?
Here are my configurations.

If we want to call the service by adding service reference, we should add the MEX endpoint in the service endpoints on the server side. It could exchange metadata of the service over all platforms.
Like below,
<services>
<service name="PushNotification_SignalR_PoC.WCF.PushNotificationService">
<endpoint binding="wsHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="MutualSslLargeMessageBinding" contract="PushNotification_SignalR_PoC.WCF.IPushNotificationService" />
<endpoint address="mex" binding="mexHttpsBinding" contract="IMetadataExchange"></endpoint>
</service>
</services>

The protocol 'https' is not supported

I'm working with a WCF Service hosted in IIS however when i try navigate to the endpoint i receive the error "The protocol 'https' is not supported". It's hosted in IIS 10 locally running Windows 10.
The service is using wsHttpBinding with TransportWithMessageCredential.
Is this error something to do with the SSL certificate or IIS?
I already have a valid localhost certificate in my Local Machine > Personal certificate store.
What I've tried so far
Set the httpsGetUrl attribute to the .svc endpoint.
Checked IIS setting and default protocols is set to "http" which means
both http and https protocols are enabled.
Checked that the Application Pool is using .NET Framework 4.0
Restarted the application pool
I appreciate if someone can assist me.
Here is the current config:

This particular error was resolved by removing the httpsGetUrl attribute from the configuration:
httpsGetUrl="https://localhost/Zootest_3_0/ZooServices_3_0.svc
So the end result looks like this:
<serviceMetadata httpsGetEnabled="true"/>
If you want to enable the https protocol support, you should add the https endpoint which use transport transfer mode to the service. Then we should set up the https protocol site binding in the IIS site binding module.
I have made a demo, wish it is useful to you.

File Uploads to a WCF Service from ClientBase<T>

I'm currently working on a solution to upload and download files to a WCF service. The client is a class inheriting from ClientBase. I've read the MSDN article on streaming and links on StackOverflow and elsewhere, but I can't seem to figure out why I'm still getting a message about the Message size being too small. I have tested the solution so far with small files and it works.
The service is hosted in IIS 7.5
Here's the App.config from the Client application
<system.web>
<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="67108864" />
</system.web>
<system.serviceModel>
<bindings>
<basicHttpBinding>
<binding messageEncoding="Mtom" transferMode="Streamed" name="LargeFileStreamingHttpBinding"
maxBufferSize="65536"
maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647">
<readerQuotas maxDepth="32" maxArrayLength="200000000" maxStringContentLength="200000000"/>
</binding>
</basicHttpBinding>
</bindings>
<client>
<endpoint address="http://localhost/UpdateService.svc"
binding="basicHttpBinding"
contract="IUpdateService"
name="updateServiceEndpoint"/>
</client>
</system.serviceModel>
Here are the relevant sections in the server
<system.serviceModel>
<serviceHostingEnvironment aspNetCompatibilityEnabled="true" multipleSiteBindingsEnabled="true"/>
<services>
<service name="UpdateService" behaviorConfiguration="UpdateServiceBehavior">
<endpoint binding="basicHttpBinding" bindingName="LargeFileStreamingWebHttpBinding" contract="IUpdateService"></endpoint>
<endpoint contract="IMetadataExchange" binding="mexHttpBinding" address="mex" />
</service>
</services>
<behaviors>
<serviceBehaviors>
<behavior name="UpdateServiceBehavior" >
<serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true" />
<serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="true" />
</behavior>
</serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>
<bindings>
<basicHttpBinding>
<binding messageEncoding="Mtom" transferMode="Streamed" name="LargeFileStreamingWebHttpBinding"
maxBufferSize="65536"
maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647"
/>
</basicHttpBinding>
</bindings>
</system.serviceModel>
Additionally, I've added the following in on both server and client configs:
<system.web>
<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="2147483647" />
</system.web>
This is how I'm instantiating the client
public class UpdateClient : ClientBase<IUpdateService>, IUpdateService
{
public UpdateClient() : base("updateServiceEndpoint") {}
}
So does have any ideas where I could be going wrong? Any help is appreciated.
-Thanks!
Found the answer - a very simple mistake, the client/endpoint entry was missing the bindingConfiguration attribute

WCF - The remote server returned an unexpected response: (400) Bad Request

I am getting this error while passing byte[] to WCF. Can someone plz solve this error??

Without knowing your service contract and all the details needed - I can only speculate.
What strikes me is that your server-side config doesn't contain any configuration for a <service>.
The rule is this:
on the server side, you need a <services> tag in your config, which contains any number of <service> tags, which defines each service on that server. Each <service> tag in turn can contain any number of <endpoint> tags to define one or multiple service endpoints
on the client, you have one or multiple <client> entries, each of which contains a single <endpoint> that defines what service address your client connects to
So your server side config should look something like this:
<system.serviceModel>
<bindings>
<basicHttpBinding>
<binding name="NewBinding0" ....... />
</basicHttpBinding>
.....
</bindings>
<services>
<service name="YourNamespace.YourService"
behaviorConfiguration="Default" >
<endpoint name="BasicEndpoint"
address="http://localhost:5757/Services"
binding="basicHttpBinding"
bindingConfiguration="NewBinding0"
contract="YourNamespace.IYourServiceContract" />
</service>
</services>
<behaviors>
<serviceBehaviors>
<behavior name="Default">
<serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true"/>
<serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="false"/>
</behavior>
</serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>
......
</system.serviceModel>
Your client-side config seems fine - except of course, you have to put the address of your server where the service lives into the address= attribute - that typically isn't localhost

WCF Fails when using impersonation over 2 machine boundaries (3 machines)

These scenarios work in their pieces. Its when i put it all together that it breaks.
I have a WCF service using netTCP that uses impersonation to get the callers ID (role based security will be used at this level)
on top of this is a WCF service using basicHTTP with TransportCredientialOnly which also uses impersonation
I then have a client front end that connects to the basicHttp.
the aim of the game is to return the clients username from the netTCP service at the bottom - so ultimatley i can use role based security here.
each service is on a different machine - and each service works when you remove any calls they make to other services when you run a client for them both locally and remotley. IE the problem only manifests when you jump accross more than one machine boundary.
IE the setup breaks when i connect each part together - but they work fine on their own.
I also specify
[OperationBehavior(Impersonation = ImpersonationOption.Required)] in the method and
have IIS setup to only allow windows authentication (actually i have ananymous enabled still, but disabling makes no difference)
This impersonation works fine in the scenario where i have a netTCP Service on Machine A with a client with a basicHttp service on machine B with a clinet for the basicHttp service also on machine B ... however if i move that client to any machine C i get the following error:
The exception is 'The socket connection was aborted. This could be caused by an error processing your message or a receive timeout being exceeded by the remote host, or an underlying network resource issue. Local socket timeout was '00:10:00''
the inner message is 'An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host'
Am beginning to think this is more a network issue than config ... but then im grasping at straws ...
