How to fix "could not find a base address that matches schema http"... in WCF
- by Craig Shearer
I'm trying to deploy a WCF service to my server, hosted in IIS. Naturally it works on my machine :)
But when I deploy it, I get the following error:
This collection already contains an
address with scheme http. There can
be at most one address per scheme in
this collection.
Googling on this, I find that I have to put a serviceHostingEnvironment element into the web.config file:
<serviceHostingEnvironment>
<baseAddressPrefixFilters>
<add prefix="http://mywebsiteurl"/>
</baseAddressPrefixFilters>
</serviceHostingEnvironment>
But once I have done this, I get the following:
Could not find a base address that
matches scheme http for the endpoint
with binding BasicHttpBinding.
Registered base address schemes are
[https].
It seems it doesn't know what the base address is, but how do I specify it? Here's the relevant section of my web.config file:
<system.serviceModel>
<serviceHostingEnvironment>
<baseAddressPrefixFilters>
<add prefix="http://mywebsiteurl"/>
</baseAddressPrefixFilters>
</serviceHostingEnvironment>
<behaviors>
<serviceBehaviors>
<behavior name="WcfPortalBehavior">
<serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true"/>
<serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="true"/>
</behavior>
</serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>
<bindings>
<basicHttpBinding>
<binding name="BasicHttpBinding_IWcfPortal"
maxBufferSize="2147483647" maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647"
receiveTimeout="00:10:00" sendTimeout="00:10:00"
openTimeout="00:10:00" closeTimeout="00:10:00">
<readerQuotas maxBytesPerRead="2147483647" maxArrayLength="2147483647"
maxStringContentLength="2147483647"/>
</binding>
</basicHttpBinding>
</bindings>
<services>
<service behaviorConfiguration="WcfPortalBehavior" name="Csla.Server.Hosts.Silverlight.WcfPortal">
<endpoint address="" binding="basicHttpBinding" contract="Csla.Server.Hosts.Silverlight.IWcfPortal"
bindingConfiguration="BasicHttpBinding_IWcfPortal">
</endpoint>
<endpoint address="mex" binding="mexHttpBinding" contract="IMetadataExchange"/>
</service>
</services>
</system.serviceModel>
Can anybody shed some light on what's going on and how to fix it?
Thanks!
Craig
