    Problem Hosting WCF on IIS

    Hope someone can help me with this.

    I have installed Windows SDK Vista (6.0.5472.2.1) on my XP pro machine and I
    try to run a small test service. This works fine when it is self hosted (by
    console app) but I get a strange error when trying to host is on IIS (5.1).




    Error msg (Shortened):
    [ArgumentException: This collection already contains an address with scheme
    http. There can be at most one address per scheme in this collection.
    Parameter name: item]
    System.ServiceModel.UriSchemeKeyedCollection.InsertItem(Int32 index, Uri
    item) +2316953 ..........



    [ServiceActivationException: The service '/hello/HelloWorld.svc' cannot be
    activated due to an exception during compilation. The exception message is:
    This collection already contains an address with scheme http. There can be
    at most one address per scheme in this collection.
    Parameter name: item.]
    System.ServiceModel.HostingManager.EnsureServiceAvailable(String
    normalizedVirtualPath) +962

    System.ServiceModel.ServiceHostingEnvironment.EnsureServiceAvailableFast(String relativeVirtualPath) +419 ..........

    Magnus,

    Could you post your web.config file and your .svc file? It sounds like the
    service is being configured incorrectly.

    It sounds like you might have specified several base addresses with the
    same protocol? Correct me if I'm wrong, but if you for instance have
    three HTTP endpoints, you should only specify one base address, such as
    http://localhost/MyService.

    So in the web.config/app.config file:

    <host>
    <baseAddress>
    <add baseAddress="http://localhost/MyService" />
    </baseAddress>
    </host>

    The config file settings assume you are running at least the June CTP
    (I believe) of the .NET Framework 3.0. Otherwise, you will have to
    specify these addresses in code.
