Duplex communication using NetTcpBinding - ContractFilter mismatch?
- by Shaul
I'm making slow and steady progress towards having a duplex communication channel open between a client and a server, using NetTcpBinding. (FYI, you can observe my newbie progress here and here!)
I'm now at the stage where I have successfully connected to my server, through the server's firewall, and the client can make requests of the server.
In the other direction, however, things aren't quite so happy. It works fine when testing on my own machine, but when testing over the internet, when I try to initiate a callback from the server side, I get an error:
The message with Action 'http://MyWebService/IWebService/HelloWorld' cannot be
processed at the receiver,
due to a ContractFilter mismatch at the EndpointDispatcher.
This may be because of either a contract mismatch (mismatched Actions between
sender and receiver)
or a binding/security mismatch between the sender and the receiver.
Check that sender and receiver have the same contract and the same binding
(including security requirements, e.g. Message, Transport, None).
Here are some of the key bits of code. First, the web interface:
[ServiceContract(Namespace = "http://MyWebService", SessionMode = SessionMode.Required, CallbackContract = typeof(ISiteServiceExternal))]
public interface IWebService {
[OperationContract]
void Register(long customerID);
}
public interface ISiteServiceExternal {
[OperationContract]
string HelloWorld();
}
Then, on the client side (I was fiddling with these attributes without really knowing what I'm doing):
[ServiceBehavior(InstanceContextMode = InstanceContextMode.PerSession, Namespace="http://MyWebService")]
class SiteServer : IWebServiceCallback {
string IWebServiceCallback.HelloWorld() {
return "Hello World!";
}
...
}
So what am I doing wrong here?
EDIT: Adding app.config code. From server:
