Can anyone help.

Answer 1

 there are a few bindings supported by silverlight, but i believe wshttpbinding is still not one of them.  basichttpbinding will work.

Answer 2

 Silverlight 3 supports basicHttpBinding and for that You need to modify either web.Config file and set binding to basicHttpBinding or use Silverlight Enabled WCF service.

Answer 3

 I found CustomBinding in Web.Config file for my service.

I dont think so.

Yesterday only I have migrated my SL 2 project to SL 3. I have to delete all the Referneces and add them again and it work perfectly fine for me.

Answer 8

thanks ccoombs i try to use basicHttpBinding and it work fine

Answer 9

Please can you tell me what do you mean about use Silverlight Enabled WCF service.

Answer 10

You can create a WCF service and then manually change the binding in the service's configuration file. But the easiest way to get started creating WCF services is to use the Silverlight-enabled WCF Service template in the Add New Item dialog of Visual Studio 2008. By using this template, all of the necessary configuration options will automatically be created to allow for a basicHttpBinding.

Hi Ahmed,

Please add a silverlight enabled WCF service to your existing WCF application (lets say the service file name is mySilverService.svc).

Now add this service reference to your silverlight project. (url should be : http://<servername>/<WCF app name>/mySilverService.svc).

Now we are all set to use our WCF from silverlight.

 

 

-Happy silverlighting.

The following solved my problem, I created a new WP7 project added the wcf service copied the Service References folder to the directory of my project that gave me this problem. Then I restarted my Visual studio and built the application. you should get namespace errors inside your Reference.cs just change the namespace to yourproject namespace and it should work
