WCF Service Library with NetTcpBinding

Question

I'm having a tough time with NetTcpBinding.

When I run my WCFservice,I get this:

System.InvalidOperationException: Could not find a base address that matches scheme net.tcp for the endpoint with binding NetTcpBinding. Registered base address schemes are [http].
   at System.ServiceModel.ServiceHostBase.MakeAbsoluteUri(Uri relativeOrAbsoluteUri, Binding binding, UriSchemeKeyedCollection baseAddresses)
   at System.ServiceModel.Description.ConfigLoader.LoadServiceDescription(ServiceHostBase host, ServiceDescription description, ServiceElement serviceElement, Action`1 addBaseAddress)
   at System.ServiceModel.ServiceHostBase.LoadConfigurationSectionInternal(ConfigLoader configLoader, ServiceDescription description, ServiceElement serviceSection)
   at System.ServiceModel.ServiceHostBase.LoadConfigurationSectionInternal(ConfigLoader configLoader, ServiceDescription description, String configurationName)
   at System.ServiceModel.ServiceHostBase.ApplyConfiguration()
   at System.ServiceModel.ServiceHostBase.InitializeDescription(UriSchemeKeyedCollection baseAddresses)
   at System.ServiceModel.ServiceHost.InitializeDescription(Type serviceType, UriSchemeKeyedCollection baseAddresses)
   at System.ServiceModel.ServiceHost..ctor(Type serviceType, Uri[] baseAddresses)
   at Microsoft.Tools.SvcHost.ServiceHostHelper.CreateServiceHost(Type type, ServiceKind kind)
   at Microsoft.Tools.SvcHost.ServiceHostHelper.OpenService(ServiceInfo info)

I'm getting this when I run the application by default using WCFSvcHost. There's no extra code.Just the default code of any new wcf service. All I wanted to do was change the binding to tcp.

How do I solve this problem?

Edit: Here's my WCF's App.config

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

    <compilation debug="true" />

Answer 1

I'm sure by now you've fixed the issue, but it really is nothing to do with baseAddresses which is what all the bullentin boards lead you to. I found the answer at http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums/en-US/wcf/thread/c9f8d99d-89ee-4573-8528-a21b047bad11 . Assuming you are using IIS 7.x: right click the virtual directory/application in IIS, select Manage application -> Advanced settings. In the 'Enabled Protocols' section add net.tcp, eg: http,net.tcp. This is necessary even if you added this protocol already at the site level.

Answer 2

In this section

<host>          
  <baseAddresses>            
    <add baseAddress="http://localhost:8731/.../" />   
  </baseAddresses>        
</host>

add a net.tcp:// base address.

<host>
  <baseAddresses>
    <add baseAddress="http://localhost:8732/" />
    <add baseAddress="net.tcp://localhost"/>
  </baseAddresses>
</host>

Answer 3

You can share ports, it's not too hard.

Make sure when selecting enabled protocols in IIS (right click on site -> Manage Web Site -> Advanced Settings) that you DO NOT USE SPACES. If you have "http, net.tcp" instead of "http,net.tcp" it will not work, and instead give you this exact error.

Answer 4

在IIS站点中配置net.tcp绑定，并将启用的协议设置为“使用高级设置的http，net.tcp”。

Answer 5

1. Verify the Net.Tcp Port Sharing Service is started on the machine
2. Verify the configuration netTcpBinding portSharingEnabled attribute is true. (In WCF4 you don't need to provide a name on the binding element if you want this binding specification to be the default for net.tcp)
