Question

I have a project using Wcf Service. Binding in my web.config is :

<netNamedPipeBinding>
   <binding name="RCISPNetNamedPipeBinding" />
</netNamedPipeBinding>

<service behaviorConfiguration="Fara.WcfServiceBehaviour" name="Fara.WcfService.CommonWcfService">
   <endpoint address="CommonServices" binding="netNamedPipeBinding" bindingConfiguration="FaraNetNamedPipeBinding" contract="Fara.Common.ServiceContract.ICommonService" />
</service>

I have a runtime error when I want create service Host

public class ServiceFactory : ServiceHostFactory
{
   protected override ServiceHost CreateServiceHost(Type serviceType, Uri[] baseAddresses)
   {
      if (!IsInitialised) InitialiseService();
         return base.CreateServiceHost(serviceType, baseAddresses);
   }

}

Message of Exception is :

Could not find a base address that matches scheme net.pipe for the endpoint with binding NetNamedPipeBinding. Registered base address schemes are [http].

Properties of my project is :

What do I for correcting this error?

I updated Web.config :

But my problem not resolved!

As the error message says very clearly: you don’t have any base address defined for the net.pipe binding. So define one!

<service name="Fara.WcfService.CommonWcfService"
          behaviorConfiguration="Fara.WcfServiceBehaviour"  >
   <host>
      <baseAddresses>
          <add baseAddress="net.pipe://localhost/Services" />
      </baseAddresses>
   </host>
   <endpoint 
       address="CommonServices" 
       binding="netNamedPipeBinding" bindingConfiguration="FaraNetNamedPipeBinding" 
       contract="Fara.Common.ServiceContract.ICommonService" />
</service>

Then your service endpoint would be net.pipe://localhost/Services/CommonServices
