Increasing the timeout value in a WCF service

Question

How do I increase the default timeout to larger than 1 minute on a WCF service?

Answer 1

Are you referring to the server side or the client side?

For a client, you would want to adjust the sendTimeout attribute of a binding element. For a service, you would want to adjust the receiveTimeout attribute of a binding elemnent.

  
    
      
        
      
    
  

  
    
      
    
....

Of course, you have to map your desired endpoint to that particular binding.
