TCP error code 10061: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 127.0.0.1:8000.

Question

When I work through an execise i get the error: Could not connect to http://localhost:8000/HelloIndigo/HelloIndigoService. TCP error code 10061: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 127.0.0.1:8000.

 

The Code is simple

 

EndpointAddress ep = new EndpointAddress("http://localhost:8000/HelloIndigo/HelloIndigoService");

 

IHelloIndigoService proxy = ChannelFactory<IHelloIndigoService>.CreateChannel(new BasicHttpBinding(), ep);

 

string s = proxy.HelloIndigo();

 

And I've opened port 8000 on the fire wall what else am I missing?

Thanks!
