Help needed. WCF Service and WsHttpBinding over SSL

Question

User1051163829 posted

Hi,

I've been struggling for 6 hours now. I have a WCF service using the following setup in web.config and I keep receiving the following error

The SOAP action specified on the message, '', does not match the HTTP SOAP Action, 'http://tempuri.org/Interface/Method'. I have absolutely no idea why. One thing to note is that when I turn off the security mode transport, the WDSL completely changes but I still get the same result. This is killing me!

:

<bindings>
      <wsHttpBinding>
        
        <binding name="wsHttpServiceBinding" closeTimeout="00:10:00" transactionFlow="false" messageEncoding="Text" textEncoding="utf-8"

binding="wsHttpBinding"

Change the binding to "basicHttpBinding".

Hi

@sukumarraju, It needs to be a wsHttpBinding because the SOAP requests coming in are SOAP 1.2, basicHttpBinding is only suitable for SOAP 1.1 aren't they?

@Haixia, I've been using tracing and unfortunately nothing even hits tracing - it's bizarre! My thoughts are now network related as today 4MB files that take me 2 mins to upload work successfully, however, an 8MB file over a different internet connection at takes 15 seconds, fails... weird!

I need to really get to grips with WCF, the bindings are really complicated.

Thank you.

what about if you put httpGetEnabled to false and httpsGetEnabled to True?

<behavior name="WCFServices.Groupcall.Behaviour"> 
          <serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="false" httpsGetEnabled="true"/> 
          <serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="false"/> 
        </behavior>
