asmx

At the client end, I have generated a Proxy using SvcUtil.exe and it is working fine.

Then I have added a WebReference to the client assembly and calling the same method. But it is not working.

My program is running in console mode and the method is suppose to return a string. It is not returning the string. I just see a blank console window. No exception is thrown. And after setting a debug point on the method call I see that, program is halted on the method call for ever.

What should I look for to solve the problem?

I am using VS2005. And adding the webReference by right-clicking the client project and then clicking "Add Web Reference" pop-up menu.
