只有具有App.config的WCF服务部署到IIS

Question

I've add a project type of WCF Service Library to my project. Doing this has allowed me to develop and test a WCF Service, however this service runs off an App.config and not Web.config. In addition, it has no .SVC file like my prior projects. What do I need to do in order to deploy this to IIS 6.

Regards.

Answer 1

Basically four steps:

1. take the <system.serviceModel> part from your app.config and put it in web.config
2. Add a virtual directory to IIS6
3. Add the service library's DLL to the ".\\bin" directory under that virtual directory

4. Add an MyService.svc file to that directory which contains :

That's about all there is to it!

If you're on Visual Studio 2008 SP1, there is actually a publish feature from the WCF Service Library template which you can use to publish to IIS. It's available through the Build menu, or from the context menu when you right-mouse-click on the project from Solution Explorer.
