This could be due to the service endpoint binding not using the HTTP protocol

Question

I have a WCF Service running fine on my local machine. I put it on the servers, and I am receiving the following error:

For me the solutions of this Error very strange. It was the issue of port address of EndpointAddress. In Visual studio port address of your file (e.g. Service1.svc) and port address of your wcf project must be the same which you gives into EndpointAddress. Let me describe you this solution in detail.

There are two steps to check the port addresses.

1. In your WCF Project right click to your Service file (e.g. Service1.svc) -> than select View in browser now in your browser you have url like http://localhost:61122/Service1.svc so now note down your port address as a 61122

2. Righ click your wcf project -> than select Properties -> go to the Web Tab -> Now in Servers section -> select Use Visual Studio Development Server -> select Specific Port and give the port address which we have earlier find from our Service1.svc service. That is (61122).

Earlier I have different port address. After Specifying port address properly which I have given into EndpointAddress, my problem was solved.

I hope this might be solved your issue.
