I’m running Windows 7 64-bit. I’m attempting to host a WCF service which will use Windows security (net.tcp binding) on IIS7. The service I’m running is a very simple skeleton app, which works fine so far with HTTP and HTTPS. (I’ve finally gotten HTTPS to work and I’m just trying to add another binding–NET.TCP.)

I’ve configured IIS to enable net.tcp: I added a net.tcp binding with Binding information “808:*”. My “Advanced Settings -> Enabled Protocols” field is set to “https,net.tcp”.

The entire solution (contains the service application and a client app which consumes both http and https) can be found at http://petio.org/2011/06/29/MagicEightBall.zip. In the service Web.config, a copy of which can be found at http://petio.org/2011/06/29/MagicEightBall/Web.config,

I have three endpoints: http, https, and net.tcp. Right now http and https are working properly, but I have the net.tcp endpoint commented out. When I uncomment this, it breaks http and https, and then when I navigate to http://localhost/MagicEightBall/MagicEightBallService.svc, I see the error:

The protocol ‘net.tcp’ is not
supported.

What am I doing wrong? All code is posted on the above links, or you can navigate the solution via ftp://petio.org/2011/06/29/MagicEightBall/.

By the way, I’ve already activated ‘Windows Communication Foundation Non-HTTP Activation’, and made sure the ‘Net.Tcp Listener Adapter’ service is running.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Jay Sullivan

    Most likely an IIS issue – it’s a bit tricky and unintuitive to get to work at first.

    Read:

    • Configuring Internet Information Services 7.0 for Windows Communication Foundation

    and then:

    • How to: Install and Configure WCF Activation Components

    Those steps are needed – if you do them correctly and in the right order, everything should work fine after that.
