Silverlight app. displays "ConfigFileMissing" message when trying to use a web service.

Question

The silverlight class library throws System.InvalidOperationException exception with "ConfigFileMissing" message when trying to access a very simple SOAP web service.

As you can see there's only one line of code that initializes the client. This is the line where exception happens.

public void GetDataFromWebService()
{
   ServiceReference.WebServiceSoapClient client = new ServiceReference.WebServiceSoapClient();
}

Any idea?

Check to make sure you have a ServiceReferences.ClientConfig file in the root directoy of your silverlight project.
