request message size limit

Hi,

Getting the following error calling a WCF service when passing a very long string (works fine for shorter ones)

The formatter threw an exeption while trying to deserialize the message: Error in deserializing body of request message for operation 'MakeCall'. The maximum string content length quota (8192) has been exceeded while reading XML data. This quota may be increased by changing the MaxStringContentLength property on the XmlDictionaryReaderQuotas object used when creating the XML reader. Line 1, position 8934.

In the client's config file, all the receive sizes are set appropriately, but there does not to be appear a setting for the request size, which makes sense. I have not been able to find such a setting in the server's config file (which is Web.config as we are hosting the service in IIS).

The maxStringContentLength can be found in your binding configuration. If you don't have a binding configuration you will need to create one.

For Example:

<bindings>
<wsHttpBinding>
<binding name="HttpWsCfg" messageEncoding="Mtom">
<readerQuotas maxStringContentLength="16600" />
<reliableSession ordered="false" enabled="false" />
<security mode="TransportWithMessageCredential">
<transport clientCredentialType="Basic" />
<message clientCredentialType="UserName" establishSecurityContext="true" />
</security>
</binding>
</wsHttpBinding>
</bindings>

Thank you! I missed that one.
