| Guest | WCF Samples not working: McMurtry's Book I just picked up Craig McMurtry's book on WCF and am working through Chapter 2. I have the updated code for WCF Beta 2 from his web site and so far I've been able to get things to work. However, one thing has me stumped and I can't move on. I'm stuck on p. 42 (for those that have the book). In the sample code, a simple WCF service is written and called from a console application. The service doesn't actually do anything and the console app simply displays a message that the service is available. The next step has you bring up the service in a web browser, which simply displays the the test service page. You're then supposed to be able to display the WSDL. These last two steps don't work. I get a message that the page can't be found. I'm assuming that something has changed between the book being written and beta 2, but darned if I know what it is. Any suggestions on what I can do to get this working? -- Craig Berntson MCSD, Visual FoxPro MVP www.craigberntson.com Salt Lake City Fox User Group www.slcfox.org www.foxcentral.net |

| Guest | RE: WCF Samples not working: McMurtry's Book Hi Craig, I donot have access to this book, but can you tell me as to what the error that you are seeing.? Also probably you can check if you have done the following. 1. Build your WCF service class library project into the \WCFServiceProj\bin folder. 2. In IIS, point to the \WCFServiceProj folder and create the virtual directory. 3. Give Execute permission to this Virtual Dir. 4. Add the .svc dile in the \WCFServiceProj folder with the foll. code. <%@ServiceHost language=c# Debug="true" Service="NameSpace.ServiceClassName" %> <%@Assembly Name="AssemblyName" %> You should be able to view the service test screen, assuming that the attributes and namespaces used are as per the Beta 2 changes.

| Guest | Re: WCF Samples not working: McMurtry's Book The error is basically a 404...page not found. I got it working...I found there was already a Virtual Directory setup for the service. I needed to run the Console Hosting application. -- Craig Berntson MCSD, Visual FoxPro MVP www.craigberntson.com Salt Lake City Fox User Group www.slcfox.org www.foxcentral.net "Anilkumar VK" <Anilkumar VK@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:83CE62F9-2E13-4B07-8809-3864E080F7A6@microsoft.com... > Hi Craig, > > I donot have access to this book, but can you tell me as to what the error > that you are seeing.?
