The communication object, System.ServiceModel.Channels.ServiceChannel, cannot be used for communication

Question

The communication object, System.ServiceModel.Channels.ServiceChannel, cannot be used for communication because it is in the Faulted state.

Answer 1

For me the issue was caused by config file automatically genearted by importing the WSDL. I updated the binding to from basicHttpBinding to customBinding. Adding additional exception handling did not help pointing this out.

Before

            
                
            
        `

After

        
          
          
        
      `
