WCF Going from Basic to wsHttpBinding

Question

I have gotten my config to work correctly now, there was a mismatch between the actual file structure and the project structure in visual studio. Stupid silly mistake :)

However, now I have the issue of transitioning from basicHttpBinding to WsHttpBinding. This is the webconfig. As you can see I have changed the first endpoint to be of the type wsHttpBinding.

  </system.webServer>
</configuration>

When I try to run this locally on localhost, I get the following error message:

Could not find a base address that matches scheme https for the endpoint with binding WSHttpBinding. Registered base address schemes are [http].. 

I have found some artiles talking about IIS resolving multiple base addresses, but this is locally, so I don't know why it is not working.

Is there something I'm missing here? The config file works fine as long as I only use basicHttpBindings.

Any help will be greatly appreciated, tyvm!

Answer 1

Do you need security enabled? You have transport security enabled on the wsHttpBinding which will look for ssl. Your basicHttpBinding isn't using any. The error will go away if you set

    <binding name="wsHttpBinding">
      <security mode="None">

      </security>
    </binding>

Another option is to set up ssl on IIS.
