Hi I am trying to make an installer which deploys my wcf service, at the moment it is creating the virtual directory, but when i try connect my app to it, i get a CommunicationException was unhandled by user code The remote server returned an error: NotFound. I notice that if i create a virtual directory manually that it will connect and work, so i'm assuming IIS is doing something behind my back which is making it work. This is the code i am using to create the virtual directory,please note this is inside a iis:WebSite tag if more information is needed please let me know. <iis:WebVirtualDir Id="VAWebService" Directory="VAWebService" Alias="VAWebService" > <iis:WebApplication Id="VAWebService" Name="VAWebService" AllowSessions="yes" WebAppPool="VA_AppPool" /> <iis:WebDirProperties Id="MyWebSite_Properties" AnonymousAccess="yes" WindowsAuthentication="no" DefaultDocuments="service1.svc" AccessSSL="yes" AccessSSL128="yes" AccessSSLMapCert="yes" AccessSSLNegotiateCert="yes" AccessSSLRequireCert="yes" Read="yes" Write="yes" Execute="yes" Script="yes" /> </iis:WebVirtualDir> Does any one know how to fix this? any help would be appreciated. Thanks
