Unable to add WCF as service reference

Question

User1909873139 posted

I cannot add this WCF as Service Reference to my project.

Here's the details of error occured.

The document was understood, but it could not be processed.
- The WSDL document contains links that could not be resolved.
- There was an error downloading 'http://localhost/xxxxxx/Service1.svc?xsd=xsd0'.
- The request was aborted: The operation has timed out.
Metadata contains a reference that cannot be resolved: 'http://localhost/xxxxxx/Service1.svc?wsdl'.
Content Type application/soap+xml; charset=utf-8 was not supported by service http://localhost/xxxxxx/Service1.svc?wsdl. The client and service bindings may be mismatched.
The remote server returned an error: (415) Cannot process the message because the content type 'application/soap+xml; charset=utf-8' was not the expected type 'text/xml; charset=utf-8'..
If the service is defined in the current solution, try building the solution and adding the service reference again.

This can be a binding or IIS configuration issue.  The community cannot see the code or configuration so there is not much we can do.

Hi _IU,

Accroding to your description,as far as i think,you could check  WCF identity permissions.The identity that is used for the application pool that hosts the WCF service must have full NTFS permissions on the %WINDIR%\temp folder. You could change that permission to the identity (LOCAL SERVICE) on C:\Windows\Temp.

In IIS,you could click Application Pools -->View Applications-->Advanced Settings-->check identity.
