I have a WCF service hosted in an Azure WorkerRole. Everything works as expected

  • 0

I have a WCF service hosted in an Azure WorkerRole. Everything works as expected on localhost but when deployed in Azure there’s the following permission problem (found in the Event Viewer)

Exception: HTTP could not register URL https://+:5253/IServiceName/.
Your process does not have access rights to this namespace (see
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=70353 for details).

(I’m using Castle Windsor WCF to create dependency injected services, but behind the scenes it’s basically a ServiceHost with the base address set to https://<instance-ip-endpoint>.cloudapp.net:<endpoint-port>/IServiceName and a WSHttpBinding on top.)

I copy-pasted the code from another of my projects, which works just fine on Azure.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to troubleshoot this? Isn’t the deployment supposed to have access to it’s own endpoint?

    I got this error because of (what seems like) an exception due to a missing assembly reference in the cloud.

    When marking missing assemblies (some app-specific) with CopyLocal and redeploying the errors go away.

    (Sidenote: The error about access rights isn’t really helpful for troubleshooting though)
