I have a WCF Web application that uses a WCF Class Library. My project

  • 0

I have a WCF Web application that uses a WCF Class Library.
My project is a WCF Web project and I am self-hosting.

My problem is that all my web service methods hang with:

And “Unable to automatically step into the server…etc”.

The error (not very helpful) returned is:

The operation has timed out

When I invoke the same method(s) using the WCF Test Client
I get the correct response and everything goes smoothly.

So, something must be wrong with my web application.

Following up on a similar post, I used the Service Trace Viewer.
I am getting the error:

The message with To 
'http://localhost:8731/Design_Time_Addresses/Authentication/mex/mex' 
cannot be processed at the receiver, due to an AddressFilter mismatch at the 
EndpointDispatcher.  Check that the sender and receiver's EndpointAddresses 
agree.

After reading a related post, I tried adding:

[ServiceBehavior(AddressFilterMode=AddressFilterMode.Any)]

And recompiling my class library and updating my services to no avail… still hangs.

I have tried adding both my web service and my web project as startup projects but
I am still unable to step into the code. I also have all the appropriate DEBUG attributes
set in Web.config and App.config.

Any suggestions out there?

    Without knowing what your configuration looks like, it’s hard to say what’s wrong. However, why does your URL have /mex twice in it? Are you sure that’s right?
