Question

i having this problem randomly and i able to add/delete/update using the WCFServiceClient and then i get the error and its happening randomly…

below is the client code that i am using…

using(WCFServiceClient client = new WCFServiceClient ()) 
{ 
     //More codes here 
     Employee emp = new Employee()
     emp = client.GetEmployeeDataById(123); //<<<ERROR    
}

I increase the timeout to two minutes but still the same:

<binding name="WSHttpBinding_IEmployeeService" maxReceivedMessageSize="200000" sendTimeout="00:02:00" >

//error:

The request channel timed out while waiting for a reply after 00:00:59.9990000. Increase the timeout value passed to the call to Request or increase the SendTimeout value on the Binding. The time allotted to this operation may have been a portion of a longer timeout.

any help? i have seen many posts but none them seems any fix or any guidance.

Avoiding Problems with the Using Statement
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa355056.aspx

The C# “using” statement results in a call to Dispose(). This is the same as Close(), which may throw exceptions when a network error occurs. Because the call to Dispose() happens implicitly at the closing brace of the “using” block, this source of exceptions is likely to go unnoticed both by people writing the code and reading the code. This represents a potential source of application errors.
