I have a WCF Service Library containing five service contracts. The library is hosted through a
Windows Service. Most if not all my configuration for the WCF Library is declaritive. The only thing I am doing in code for configuration is to pass the type of the class implementing the service contracts into ServiceHost. I then call Open on each of the services during the
Windows Service OnStart event. Here is the error message I get:
Service cannot be started. System.InvalidOperationException: Service '[Fubu.Conversion.Service1' has zero application (non-infrastructure) endpoints. This might be because no configuration file was found for your application, or because no service element matching the service name could be found in the configuration file, or because no endpoints were defined in the service element.

{
// Uncomment to debug this properly
//System.Diagnostics.Debugger.Break();
StartService1();
StartService2();
StartService3();
StartService4();
StartService5();
}
Each of the above simply do the following:
private void StartSecurityService()
{
host = new ServiceHost(typeof(Service1));
host.Open();
}

Contract is set up as follows:

I have looked "high and low" for a solution without any luck. Is the answer obvious? The solution to this does not appear to be. Thanks
