I’m working over WCF and it worked fine on localhost. After I placed it on the production server, it thows an exception
The requested service, ‘http://global-kazway.kz/Service1.svc‘ could
not be activated. See the server’s diagnostic trace logs for more
information
I’m new in Services and have been trying to solve this problem for almost 3 hours.
Here is the App.config of the client;

First step in troubleshooting a WCF application is to bring up a browser and type in the service URI. So based on the client: you’d navigate to http://global-kazway.kz/Service1.svc
Now see what kind of results you get. Exception? The service screen? Usually you can get your best information from this screen! Sometimes it points out what your issue is such as missing a behavior.
Compare your web.config with the deployed web.config entries. You may find something there as well. Finally you may just have to manage security on your folder. But the browser display could spell everything out for you very clearly.
