I am developing a WPF application in .NET 4.0 which calls a WCF Service

  • 0

I am developing a WPF application in .NET 4.0 which calls a WCF Service hosted on the server developed in .NET 4.0.

I want to use windows authentication for this purpose and it seems that it is not working and keep on giving me following error.

The provided URI scheme ‘http’ is
invalid; expected ‘https’. Parameter
name: via

I do not want to use https as this is an Intranet application. The WCF Service in turn calls SQL Server SPs via Entity Framework 4.0.

It works fine locally but as soon as I put that on server and it stops working. I can access the service via Browser and I can reference it as well but as soon as I access one of the method and I get above error. Any idea? Is it possible to call WCF Service without https?

Any help is appreciated

Thanks

PS: I want to list my web.config and app.config but for some reason its not working. Wonder why?

    I think its working now by setting the Security mode to TransportWithCredentialOnly.

    Thanks for everyone’s reply.
