WCF - The maximum nametable character count quota (16384) has been exceeded while reading XML data

Question

I\'m having a WCF Service that uses wsHttpBinding. The server configuration is as follows :

      &l         


        

Answer 1

I know it has been a while, but I got the same problem and found other (simpler) solution in codeproject

In the solution given there the values are set in the code rather than the .config file.

        BasicHttpBinding binding = new BasicHttpBinding();
        binding.Security.Mode = BasicHttpSecurityMode.Transport;
        binding.Security.Transport.ClientCredentialType = HttpClientCredentialType.Windows;
        binding.MaxReceivedMessageSize = 50000000;
        binding.ReaderQuotas.MaxArrayLength = 50000000;
        binding.ReaderQuotas.MaxStringContentLength = 50000000;
        binding.ReaderQuotas.MaxNameTableCharCount = 50000000;
        EndpointAddress endpoint = new EndpointAddress(new Uri("https://server/EWS/Exchange.asmx"));
        ExchangeServicePortTypeClient ews = new ExchangeServicePortTypeClient(binding, endpoint);

However, I changed the values in the relevant values in the .config file ( in both the and the sections) and solved the problem (rather than adding custom bindings):

I hope this will help somebody :)
